The fresh catch for summer is our Eric Carle Mermaid Dress - a keepsake-worthy piece for beach trips, cruise vacations, resort holidays, family photos, or mermaid birthdays. Whether given as a memorable gift or selected as something your own aspiring marine biologist will love, this dress is sure to delight toddlers and girls ages two to eight.

As comfortable as it is captivating, this under-the-sea chemise features a vibrant wraparound underwater scene from The Very Hungry Caterpillar author Eric Carle. Dolphins leap, jellyfish drift, and a flaxen-haired mermaid swims around the dress in Carle’s iconic collage style. Designed for warm-weather adventures, from shell collecting on the shore to birthday dinners at the beach house, this limited-edition dress combines artistic storytelling with heirloom-quality construction.

The artwork comes from Carle’s interpretation of Mermaid / Undersea by Marchette Chute, found in his book Dragons, Dragons & Other Creatures That Never Were:

Mermaid / Undersea  by Marchette Chute
Beneath the waters / Green and cool / The mermaids keep / A swimming school.
The oysters trot; / The lobsters prance; / The dolphins come / To join the dance.
But all the jellyfish / Who are rather small, / Can’t seem to learn / The steps at all.

The delight in this linen dress lies in the unique way the mermaid and her friends wrap around the dress from front to back. A feat of fashion engineering, to create this dress the artwork for each size is scaled to fit on each pattern piece, then printed, cut, and carefully assembled to ensure it flows seamlessly through the side pleats and across the skirt. Topped off with ocean-blue shoulder straps and rickrack trim echoing gentle waves, it’s an unforgettable look for mermaid-themed parties, family travel, or just twirling barefoot after a perfect beach day.
