    Modest Mermaid Tops??

    I'm a bit of a modest mermaid, and while I love shell tops I hate all the décolletage! I would much rather have a top like a Tankini, but I believe it won't be very mermaid-ish Any one Have ideas? Opinions? Help?

    Oh, good. I thought they would end up looking like last years swimsuits LOL
    Thanx, I'm planning on making one or the other but I can't decide...

    I agree. I like the 2nd one. The top one would be cool if you have layers of netting for the bottom. It would float nicely in the water, but also have that mermaidy flair.

    My friend is trying to do mermaiding as a profession, so I sew a portion of her tops and accessories because if a glue gun so much as looks at her she has glued herself to the floor. Also, I had a medical issue that left my midsection very scarred up and it's a sore spot for me. I have been trying to thing of creative ways to keep it covered but still be every bit and majestic. not sure how well it will work, but modest mermaids rock *nods nods*

    Glad I'm not the only modest mermaid. I love all of your ideas they sound wonderful! I am probably going to make a bikini top out of my leftover tail material and then do fish netting for the bottom section. I'll draw a sketch of it later, but just wanted to express my idea for now

    It's really cute!

    Still cute though ))

    I did not steal his design. I don't even look at his site so I wouldn't know, but my design is not like his.
    My top has netting for the bottom as well the top. This is my own creation....

    Just because someone else has something that is similar, which I don't really think either of those are like her design, doesn't mean she can't make her own....

    Aqua~ I made something like that, I only had one day lol so it's kinda messy but https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater you can see it there. I like your design, you should totally go for it!!
