Ladivine CD776 V-Neck Crystal Lace Mermaid Gown with Open V-Back

The Ladivine CD776 is offered in five confident colorways — Black, Gold, Red, Royal, and Silver — making it one of the most color-flexible mermaid silhouettes in the current Ladivine collection. Each colorway carries the embellishment differently and reads as a distinct aesthetic proposition.

Fit & Silhouette

The Ladivine CD776 is a true mermaid silhouette — fitted closely through the bust, waist, hips, and thighs, then flaring dramatically at the knee into a floor-sweeping train. This is one of the most body-conscious shapes in formal dressing, and it rewards confident posture and accurate sizing. The V-neckline is anchored by spaghetti straps at the outer shoulder; the corset bodice provides bust and rib cage structure through internal vertical boning. The pleated hipline creates a structured horizontal detail that visually anchors the transition from the fitted lower bodice into the mermaid flare at the knee — the pleating functions as both design element and structural transition. The open V-back releases the upper back from the shoulder blades downward to approximately the natural waist, closing with a concealed center-back zipper at the lower back.

This silhouette is most flattering on hourglass and pear-shaped figures, where the natural curve from waist to hip is amplified by the mermaid construction. The dramatic flare at the knee creates significant visual impact for taller frames; for petite frames, the train should be hemmed proportionally and the wearer should consider whether the silhouette overpowers the frame. Apple-shaped wearers benefit from the corset structure, which sculpts the natural waist visibly. Athletic and lean figures gain feminine curve from the bodice construction and the mermaid flare.

Fabric & Detail

The Ladivine CD776 is constructed in stretch satin — the mechanical stretch is particularly important for the mermaid silhouette, because the close drape through the hip and thigh requires fabric give for comfortable movement. The corset bodice is layered with two distinct embellishment techniques: hand-set crystal beading creates dimensional sparkle across the upper bust, while lace appliqué adds textural depth in floral patterns across the bodice and continues into the pleated hipline area. The combination of beading and lace creates visual richness without overwhelming the gown's silhouette. The pleated hipline is hand-finished to lay flat against the body. The mermaid train is supported by an interior horsehair-stiffened layer at the lower edge.
