"We are the original and first clothing company to put lights in dresses and have been doing it for over 15 years, Your dress can even light up underwater if you'd like"

Wow, the first?!?! 15 years?!?!? Underwater???!!!!???!?!?!?!?!
Your Etsy store just SCREAMS experience and skill so I think I'll have to ignore the lack of actual not-stolen product photos from the past 15 years of light-up dresses and fork out more than $1000 for a dress that will DEFINITELY hold up underwater because that is not hard to engineer at all

You'd think if you actually made Carrie Underwood a dress, you'd plaster that name-drop fucking everywhere.

Here's an old pic of my first fabric tail I made myself thanks to a tutorial on YouTube by LittleOrca! It's so dark and shimmery!!! I made it before MerCon/World Mermaid Awards back in 2011! This was taken in the evening in our hotel room while my hair was still good before going to the pool lol! I still have this tail and share mer-moments with my niece (video below!) I just ordered a realistic tail from FinFolk and I can't wait to get it! I'll post the new tail in like a year when I get it lol!

That is a gorgeous fluke; it is so colourful and star-shimmery! The video is adorable..."I'm a MERmaid!"

It's not a tail but it contains a tail, this is a drawing i made of Rasta Merman Blix in his stunning tail made by Najestic ENT

Oh my god, Merman Marinus, that's awesome! :D

I saw the post where the mermaid premiered the tail on here. so i recognized it immediately.. if it is the same mermaid, i'd love to know why she's got two shops lol

I messaged Ilonka on deviantart and let her know about this. I gave her the url for Etsy's DMCA takedown form and encouraged her to report it, since it's obviously a scam :/ Hopefully she does.

That is a lovely romantic sketch, Marinus, and you have well-rendered a very unique tail fluke!

Here's the tail that I'm hoping to have in production very soon because it's a dream tail for me. I just hope that the real thing lives up to my imagination! I based my tail off of the Juvenile Emperor Fish with a beta fish like fluke. Everyone has such lovely tails! Attachment 33323

Thank you Iona, i was in the process of sending it to you too on etsy but my computer died... I emailed the woman asking to see more of her work and all she said was "that is an example, i am in the process of creating more tails and will upload pictures as i finish." i just sent back "i understand that but thats not YOUR creation and i was asking to see one that YOU have done" she has yet to reply. *rolls eyes*

Did you mean my video? Or were you commenting to something else? :-)

Finally done and thought to post it here too. More pictures will be on my fb page sometime in the near future so I don't clog up the thread.

Ilyena it's AMAZING! You've done an incredible job! I wanna see swim videos!! :D *those scales*

Ocean: Thank you, but unfortunately this tail isn't getting in the water further than what the tide came in on Sunday. This is a primarily dry event tail, unless I decide otherwise cause I don't want to ruin all the time on the scales >_<.

Aww! It is really pretty either way! Great job :)

Ilyena! I LOVE your tail! It came out beautifully, and the colorway is gorgeous! Congratulations!

hello,
i wanted to show you the first swimming test of my second silicone tail....
i really had great fun, the speed i can reach was so amazing that i spend all the time testing the limits, and didn't try to make a good swim with undulated all the body... will do that next time... ;)

hope you will enjoy... ;)
