While doing research for this article, I came across some interesting trivia about “The Little Mermaid and I would like to share some of it with you:

  • Released in 1989, “The Little Mermaid” was the last Disney animated feature film in which hand-painted cells and an analog camera were used. This all included 1,000 colors on 1,100 backgrounds and well over 1,000,000 drawings.
  • CAPS (Computer Animation Production System) was used for the first time in the wedding scene toward the end of the film.
  • The Little Mermaid” is considered to be Walt Disney’s most successful animated feature since the release of “Fantasia” in 1940.
  • As you might guess, “The Little Mermaid” included many millions of bubbles. But do you know that each and every one of these bubbles was hand-drawn individually. The task was so big that it had to be farmed out to Pacific Rim Productions, a production company based in Beijing, China and its progress was threatened by the infamous student uprising in Tienanmin Square.

One of the most beloved Walt Disney characters is Ariel, the little mermaid, and thus the Disney Mermaid costumes are also top selling. But why would they be? After all, whether they are for adult women or for young girls, mermaid costumes are adorable and evoke magical romance.

Here are a few interesting fact about the little princess name Ariel and the underwater world of merfolks:

  • Ariel was actually a princess and one of six daughter of the sea king.
  • Mermaids are not allowed to swim up to the surface until they are 15 years old and considered mature enough.
  • Ariel saves a prince from drowning. Since she understands that humans cannot breath under water, she leaves him on the beach.
  • The life expectancy of mermaids is roughly 300 years. When they die, they turn to sea foam and then cease to exist.
  • Being told that human souls live eternally in Heaven after they die, she too wants that for herself.
  • In desperation, Ariel goes to the Sea Witch and is given a potion that will give her a pair of legs but will take away her voice.

This is by far the most beautiful creature of the sea.

But what exactly are mermaids?

Represented in folklore and mythology around the world and dating back to times of antiquity, Mermaids are mythological creatures of the sea whose head and torsos resemble beautiful women while the rest of them look like large fish.  Although they are less often spoken about, the male counterparts of mermaids are merman.

Stories about mermaids vary from one culture to the next but the most frequently appearing are those which depict mermaids as creatures who, like sirens, sing to men and gods in order to enchant and captivate them.  Seaman are reported to be most vulnerable to the magical charms of mermaids and many stories talk about sailors being snatched by mermaids and taken to their underwater castles.

Hans Christian Andersen, the author of “The Little Mermaid” claims that mermaids simply forget that humans cannot breathe underwater, yet many others claim that they drown men out of sheer spite.

It should not come as a surprise to anyone to realize that vintage mermaid costumes can be found in abundance in vintage and costume brick and mortar retail stores as well as all over the Internet at countless online merchant sites which specialize in Halloween products such as costumes and accessories. After all, mermaids have been around for centuries. Well, maybe not the actual mermaids, but certainly the myths, the fables and the legends that have been told and retold by many cultures throughout the world.

Mermaids, the aquatic female beings, are depicted as having women’s upper bodies (torsos and heads with long flowing hair) and a fish’s tails; have been allegedly enchanting men to distraction and thus causing them to drown with their sweetly alluring voices and their enthralling beauty.

Queen of the Sea Plus Adult CostumeNow, what woman would not want to emulate, to copy, to pretend that men (young and old) can easy fall for her exquisite looks and her magical voice? What woman would not want to fantasize being a creature that holds so much power over the opposite sex? What woman would not want to become the reigning princess of the supernatural kingdom beneath the deep blue sea, even if it is only for a brief spell of a few hours?

Therefore, when the occasions permit or encourage stepping out of the world of drudgery and reality and into la-la land — occasions such as Halloween, masquerades, theme parties, parades and so on — women of all ages have been opting to dress in mermaid costumes more often than in any other type of costume. And little girls? Well, little girls like to do what their mommies, aunties and big sisters do. So, little girls also choose mermaid costumes over other kinds, although for different reasons.

Mesmerizing Mermaid AdultAre you looking for vintage plus size mermaid costumes or vintage sexy mermaid costumes?  Are you looking for vintage teen mermaid costumes or vintage girl mermaid costumes?  Well, you’ve come to the right place!

Thus mermaid costumes have become extraordinarily popular. If a woman or a girl wants to look a little different from the rest of the mermaids she may encounter where dressing in costumes is expected, she could look for a vintage costume store, real or virtual. True, vintage mermaid costumes may be a little more pricy but isn’t being unique and looking special worth the extra few dollars? I think it is.

So ladies, stand out in the crowd and put on your special sexy mermaid costume this Halloween and watch the other mermaids turn green with envy and the men turn flushing red because you look so HOT.

Joint the Mermaid Costume Craze for Halloween 2009!

The mermaid costume craze may be a relatively new phenomena as more and more women and girls of all ages are seeking to become the princesses who have been simultaneously revered and feared, glorified and extolled for so many centuries — the princesses who emerged from their kingdoms deep down on the floor of the great big oceans to tempt and lure men to follow them — the beautiful water creatures that mystify and charm.

Mermaid Adult CostumeTrue, the mermaid costume craze is new but mermaids are not at all. Tales about mermaids and mermaid-like creatures date back into antiquity and the first known stories which were documented in writing stem from the ancient world of 1000 BC in the Near East and more specifically in Assyria. The mermaid craze is by no means limited to costumes (women’s mermaid costumes, infant mermaid costumeschid mermaid costumes, plus size memaid costumes, sexy mermaid costumes, etc.) although the selection is certain in verging on obsessive proportions. But rather, the mermaid craze extends to:

  • Collectors’ Items. Mermaid figurines made of fine china, porcelain, ceramic, blown glass, plastics, carved out of stone or wood and shaped from a variety of metals have become collectors’ items around the world. And some of these mermaid figurines, particularly those which are considered antique, have been gaining quite a bit of monetary value.
  • Mythology. Mermaids have been depicted in mythology and folklore of the Greeks, Assyrians, Babylonians and many other others Eastern and Western cultures.
  • Literature. Mermaids have been pivotal characters in countless pieces of literature — the most famous among them are “The Little Mermaid” by Hans Christian Andersen and “The Arabian Nights” (a.k.a. “One Thousand and One Nights”) which is a collection of short stories that were the works of medieval Arabic, Persian, Indian, Egyptian and Mesopotamian authors and was compiled through the centuries.

Magical Mermaid Toddler/Child CostumeEven Shakespeare, Yeats, Eliot, Wilde, Barry, and Baum saluted Mermaids in their poetry and prose.

  • Art.
    Many great artists and sculptor selected mermaids for their artistic expression and among there are Munch, Waterhouse, Beardsley, Pyle, Magritte, Rubens and Bosch.
  • Miscellaneous.
    Through the years, mermaids have also appeared on the coats of arms, carved on furniture, woven into tapestries and so on and on.

Now, is there any wonder why so many more women and girls of all ages prefer girls mermaid costumes than any other type of costume? I think not.

Wherever and whenever there is a Halloween part, a theme bash, a masquerade or a parade; mermaids will appear to wow their beholders, and you too can easily become one of these breathtaking beauties. All you need to do is visit Buy Costumes and be astounded at their huge selection of mermaid costumes.

Be the Littlest Little Mermaid for Halloween 2009!

I suspect that the littlest  little mermaid costumes are selected by the mommies and daddies or their older siblings or aunties and cousins. And why not, after all they are truly too little to be involved in such important decision making. But regardless of who it is that makes such decision, the littlest members of the family deserve to be fitted into the littlest mermaid costumes just like everyone else deserves to be fitted into their own appropriate sizes.

The Little Mermaid Ariel Deluxe Toddler/Child CostumeMermaid costumes have become ever so popular during the past several years. It seems that everybody, or at least every women and girl, wants to escape into the illustrious kingdom that is reining at the bottom of the deep blue seas — the kingdom where mermaids, large and small, young and old, frolic and play amidst sea weed, fish and urchins — the kingdom from where breathtakingly beautiful mermaids emerge long enough to capture the hearts of unsuspecting men with their alluring singing voices — mermaids that can entice otherwise perfectly rational men to follow them back into the depth of the waters.

Well, those are the legends and folklore that talk about magical creatures such as mermaids, and women (young and old, big and small, thin and fat) crave to live that kind of fantasy even if it is only for a brief few hours. Why? Because mermaid costumes can transport them into charmed lands of yonder and to make them all feel, perhaps for the first time in their lives, that they are indeed ravishing. And the littlest members in their little mermaid costume look ever so adorable alongside their escorting older mermaids.

The Little Mermaid Ariel Deluxe Adult CostumeCostume designers from all around the world are scampering about to outdo, outshine and outperform one another in creating new mermaid costumes and renovating old ones. They are all in a mad rush to meet the ever growing demand for the mermaid costumes, from the littlest to the largest.

Just as designers are desperately trying to keep up and beat the competition, so are vendors, especially the online retailers such as those found at Buy Costumes where the selection is tremendous, where the stockrooms are usually filled and the prices are surprising low.

So, before the next Halloween party and the “trick or treat” journey around the neighborhood, before the upcoming masquerade ball and before the approaching annual parade; get yourself a mermaid costume, take a deep breath, close your eyes and “dive” into a world of enchantment and delight and know that you are stunning.

One pumpkin is relinquished to mom so that she will bake her famous pumpkin pie. Yummy! – The remaining pumpkins will be carved into Jack-o-Lanterns but first dad must dig out the pumpkin carving tools and search through the Internet for cool patterns. – The girls want theirs carved into Mickey Mouse or Cinderella while the boys want monsters and demons.

The entire house is then decorated with cobwebs and spiders, and an assortment of effigies for witches on their brooms, black cats in their attack modes, flying bats, floating ghosts and haunted mentions.
