1880s Mermaid Costume

Simbrleen 2021 - week 2

I came across this book published in 1888 about costume ideas for women attending parties. I fell in love with the mermaid costume with a tail bustle and decided I had to make it! The book gave some suggestions for colour combinations so I made 32 swatches of those and some other colours I liked. I’m not great with textures so the brilliant Ali (@theroyalthornoliachronicles) did some photoshop magic and made 20 incredible gradient swatches, bringing the total up to 52 swatches.

The bodice is from @sifix‘s Satine dress (here) and the seaweed comes from @astya96cc simblreen Mortal Kombat set (here). It was originally hair but I’ve repurposed it for the dress which I think has worked rather well!

TOU: Feel free to recolour or edit to your hearts content, just don’t make people pay for it.
