Featuring a structured corset-inspired bodice, sheer puff sleeves, delicate shell details, and shimmering embroidery, this design feels equally at home gliding across the ice or wandering through a frozen fairytale. The high illusion neckline gives it a graceful, regal silhouette, making it a versatile piece that pairs beautifully with skirts, shorts, or layered outfits.

The layered scalloped ruffles, pearl-inspired buttons, and icy blue gradient give them a soft, whimsical look that's easy to pair with either Ice Mermaid Top. They're playful, comfortable, and perfect for anyone who loves subtle fantasy fashion.
