Mermaidcore Is Evolving: Here’s How to Style It This Summer 2025
|
Mermaidcore feels gentle, glowing, and grounded this year. Summer 2025 leans into coastal textures, moonlit colors, and softness that sways like the tide. This version of Mermaidcore carries quiet magic—calm, cozy, and tactile. Think pearl sheens and sandy neutrals, fabrics that ripple with movement, and furniture that feels as natural as seashells smoothed by waves. It isn’t about dressing up or creating a fantasy world—it’s about weaving that slow, serene ocean energy into your everyday. A space that feels like low tide at dawn, with light glimmering across surfaces and air that moves with ease. The details matter: linens that feel cool to the touch, ceramics with a salt-washed patina, colours that shift between pale aqua and deep indigo depending on the light. This isn’t costume. This is your room, your rhythm, your reset. A sanctuary where you can exhale, soften into yourself, and feel the pull of the sea even from miles away. Let’s explore how to bring that Mermaidcore feeling into your space. |
1. Mermaidcore Moves from Glossy to Gauzy
This season, shimmer softens. Light plays across fabric instead of bouncing off sequins. Iridescence shows up in layers that breathe, ripple, and rest.
- The Coquette Tencel Silky Ruffle Bedding Set drapes like waves at dusk. It catches light without shouting, creating softness you can sink into—true Mermaidcore energy.
- Complete the mood with sheer curtains, pearly trays, and soft-glow lighting. When the light feels soft, everything else follows.
Soft glow, tidal calm. That’s the Mermaidcore mood.

2. Mermaid-Inspired Tones That Feel Like Tides
Seaglass green, pearl white, saltwater blue, and lavender tidepool. These colors speak ocean without saying it outright. Mermaid tones help the room breathe.
- Start with a neutral anchor like the Minimal Jacquard Bedding Set / Cream White . Layer on pastels like drifted petals—pale blue, faded lilac, shell pink.
- The palette is dreamy but grounded. It holds space for softness and stillness. Mermaid energy arrives in the quietest hues.
Color cue: Let the shoreline guide you. Bring the sea indoors with Mermaidcore tones.

3. Textures That Bring Mermaid Dreams to Life
Mermaidcore is rooted in the feel of fabric—washed cotton, fluid silk, and breathable gauze. The rhythm of the sea is in the layering, and the comfort is in the textures that feel as if they were touched by a mermaid herself. Top your bed with the Bubble Washed Cotton Ruffle Bedding Set, a piece that whispers mermaid softness in every fold. Add gauze curtains or a lace-trim pillow for a tide-like touch, creating a corner that feels both coastal and mermaid gentle. Movement belongs in every detail—let fabric fall loosely, let it sway like a mermaid’s hair in the current whenever the window opens.
Texture creates rhythm. Rhythm keeps you grounded.

4. Add Mermaid Touches Through Ocean Memory
The sea arrives in details. A shell tray on the nightstand. A glass bowl filled with sea-worn stones. A wavy-print blanket at the end of your bed.
- The Soft Cotton Bedding Bundle / Green Gauze carries this energy. Light, layered, and full of breath—it rests on your bed like morning fog by the water.

5. Keep Mermaidcore Personal and Playful
Let this aesthetic reflect your story. Choose details that feel tender and whimsical. A framed print from your last beach day. A jar of collected sand. Slippers that make you smile.
The Mermaid spirit lives in these pieces. Quiet, simple, sincere.
Reminder: Mermaidcore belongs to anyone who feels called by the tide.
