The (Extremely Chaotic) Making of a Latex Mermaid Skirt 

Thanks you! He is a sweetheart :)

oh wow, thanks for the tip!! I'm definitely going to try that next time :)

Thanks!! :) I messed up a LOT though, but it made the end result so much more worth it, for all the trouble it caused me to get there!

Oh wow thank you so much for the super chat!!❤️

Thanks Vivian, glad you enjoyed it!

Right?? It's like as soon as we make a plan, everything goes completely awry. And yes, I'm Canadian! :)

It definitely was a journey! ;)

Thank you!

Ohhh you haven’t seen the bride! Not only is she drop-dead gorgeous just by herself, she’s also picked out the most EPIC dress EVER. I will rightfully blend right into the background next to her ☺️

Thank you!! :) I can definitely wear it again, it’s just not something I would wear every day all the time, because it takes a lot of time to get into! I have to lube up my legs to slide it on or else the rubber could tear, so I’m affectionately calling it my Condom Skirt ;)

@@meghansandor Putting on lube would it not feel uncomfortable? I remember when I wore white go go boots as a teen it took me forever to put them on.

Latex I bought from a seller on Etsy, and the solvent and glue were from Amazon!

Haha thanks! I don’t think he minds ;)

That's the plan!

Unfortunately there was no next size down! I'm the smallest size. And even if there was, it still wouldn't have given me that perfect fit I was after...with latex the only way to get it is to take your body measurements and reduce them by 8-10% depending on the thickness of the latex. Commercial patterns use standardized sizing, which isn't going to be a perfect fit for most people so you always have to play around with commercial patterns to get the right fit, which is generally why I prefer to just draft my own :)

Hi Sunjib, thank you!
