Courtesy of Augusta Jones
This Augusta Jones mermaid gown combines the glamour of the 1950s with the fluidity of the '70s. The goal, says the designer, is to show off brides' waistlines and hips, specifically featuring the hourglass shape. The dress can either be a halter style neckline or, because the halter is detachable, strapless. The collection is cut from taffeta, organza, satin, and lace, and features '50s-inspired half bows, bursts of hand-cut beaded flowers, and an array of glittering belt accessories.
