Mermaid Costume Fail


This has to be one of the worst I've seen - found it at Grandin Road, who is responsible for the big insert in my Martha magazine (previous post). $49. Ouch.

How can you be a mermaid with 3' of leg showing?

Mermaids don't have legs, that's sort of a huge part of their identity!

So are you only 1/2 mermaid at that point? Hi, Happy Halloween, I'm a half mermaid? That's half-@$$ed if you ask me. I could even buy if this were some sort of FISH costume (like "Hi, I'm a crappie") but as a mermaid it's a total no-go.

Please don't wear this to my party, I'll be forced to gut you and roll you in bread crumbs.
