Secret Honey Ariel Maxidress

Hello everyone, welcome back to another post. Today, I would like to show you this Ariel I will Sing maxidress from Secret Honey. This is my favourite Ariel dress. I love maxidresses, I love the cut, there is enough space for a bigger chest etc. It’s just perfect.

I showcase one of my Disney pieces every two weeks, you can check out my other posts if you like. Last time I showed you my Secret Honey Anna Frozen Fever Cosplay.

If you would like to know more about the brand and about how you can get these dresses, I have got you covered in this post. I also sometimes sell dresses from my collection, check out my shop or my Instagram, I usually list them there.

The Ariel Maxidress

This time, I actually have a recent photo of me wearing the dress, although it is a bad mirror selfie… This is me sitting at 76 kilos (which is still 15 kilos more than my old weight, but I also lost 10 kilos already :)). My measurements are: 100cm around my chest and 80 beneath my chest. And the dress fits. Here it is from the front:

I also took a photo showing the dress from the side 🙂 It does give the illusion of being pregnant a liiiiiittle bit because the fabric is pleated beneath the bodice. But I don’t mind it too much:

And here is the dress from the back:

Of course, I also have photos on my dressform. Here is the dress from the front:

And here it is from the back:

Size and Shirring

I already talked a bit about the size, so let me just summarize: this is one of the bigger Secret Honey dresses and it still looks flattering on a “bigger” body. I know, it is still not size inclusive… But this type of dress is the best Size M or small L girlies get from Secret Honey.

The dress has no zipper, but it has shirring around the neckline, sleeves as well as in the back of the high waist:

The Pleated and Decorated Bodice

The bodice is really pretty, I love the cut it is so flattering on both, a bigger and a smaller chest, you will see why in a minute.

Here is a detail shot of the bodice. As you can see, the fabric is pleated in mini pleats. This gives the bodice a lot of volume, making it nice on smaller chested girls. But it also looks good with a bigger chest in my opinion, at least, I like it on me.

Then there’s the two layer ruffle around the neckline that is super cute. And of course, we have the pearls down the centre of the bodice:

The Sleeves

The sleeves are super pretty. They are classic flutter sleeves, they are elasticated and they are made from two layers of fabric, the blue chiffon and a dotted tulle layer that isn’t scratchy at all:

The Border Print

This is one of the older Secret Honey dresses from 2016, so it has a pretty border print. I had to google the names of Ariel’s sisters, shame on me, I know… I knew the names from that song in the beginning of the movbie, but I didn’t know who is who…

In the centre of the print, we have Ariel, Flounder, Triton and Atlantis:

Print: Ariel, Triton, Flounder in front of Atlantica

And on both sides, we have Ariels sisters. I’m still not sure if I got the names right, they were slightley different in German. First up (in no particular order), we have Aquata:

The next sister is Andrina:

Next up we have Attina:

Then we have Alana

Next is Adella:

And last but not least we have Arista:

And that is already it for today’s post. I hope you liked the Ariel maxidress and having a look at it in some more detail. Thanks a lot for reading and I see you in my next post.

Love,
Ella
