For Prom 2022 watch for plus size Mermaid prom dresses to be designed with sleeves to make a big fashion splash. We're obsessed over this trend. Why? You can't help but look like a Hollywood star ready for your red carpet moment when you wear a frock with sophisticated 3/4 sleeves and a skirt that flare out just above the knees.
The look becomes even more alluring when the sleeves are designed in with lace appliques hand sewn on sheer netting.
You'll discover gorgeous plus-size Mermaid prom dresses in all your fave colors: red, black, burgundy and of course, blue! For a real twist, we splashed bold floral prints on the of-the-moment silhouette. The result? An irresistible party frock that pumps up the fun factor instantly.
For Prom 2022 we introduce stretchy knit Mermaid evening gown designs that sparkle with a subtle shimmer. You'll love the shimmer knit fabric as a new alternative to the traditional rhinestone bling that has been popular for the several Prom season.
Everyone wants to look fabulous coming and going so we created a 2022 plus-size Mermaid prom dress with soft tucks on each side of the backside to play up the curves on your buns.
Plus Size Fitted Gowns with Halter Necklines
For Prom 2022, the halter neckline on fitted Mermaid dresses will make a strong fashion statement. Gowns designed with halter necks flatter a fuller body shape if you have wide shoulders. Why? The style draws the eye up to your face.
Did we mention that the strap at around the neck looks pretty and it is practical too? It provides much needed support if you wear a D, DD, DDD or larger bra cup. But there's still a chance to look sexy wearing a plunging V-neckline on a halter dress.
Styling Tip: Avoid wearing necklaces with formal mermaid gowns with a halter. It detracts from the style of the dress. Instead, opt for statement earrings or consider a dramatic bracelet for your accessories on the big night.
Whether your body-hugging Mermaid is a halter, strapless, sleeveless or sleeve design, be confident you can look gorgeous at Prom 2022 or any other formal evening event or special occasion.
Fit Tip
Wearing a fitted Mermaid prom dress takes a little planning to make sure you look your best on the big night. Getting the right fit in a curve-hugging silhouette starts underneath your fitted formal dress. This is the time and place when you want to be certain that you wear the right shapewear. Look for an undergarment that smooths out your curves rather than sucks you in. That way you will be better able to show off your great curves and still be comfortable enough to dance the night away and enjoy a special dinner.
At Sydney's Closet, many of our Mermaid styles come with a lace-up corset back. This design detail lets you cut down on alterations and more easily fit the dress your curves. A corset back also adds to the comfort factor!
Fabrics for Prom 2022
Look for gowns designed in Mermaid styles to shine for Prom 2022 in sequins. Nothing looks more Hollywood than the red-carpet glam of a body-con gown sewn in brilliant, eye-catching sequins. At Sydney's, we love to line these sparkling Prom gowns in a stretch knit fabric for a fit - and very comfy - fit.
Slinky satin also works wonders on a Mermaid design because it creates a long, sleek and oh-so sexy look for Prom 2022. And did we mention, satin is so very sophisticated!
Remember, Prom dresses need not be all about volume. If you've got confidence to pull it off, a slinky design looks ultra glamorous and very chic for your big once-in-a-lifetime night. Plus, it lets you embrace your inner diva with a sexy look sure to turn heads.
