Seashell Bra/Playing With
 | This page needs some cleaning up to be presentable. Averted, Enforced, Lampshaded, Invoked, Exploited, Defied, and Discussed need to be filled in. |
Basic Trope: Mermaids use ocean objects, plants, animals, etc. to cover their breasts.
- Straight: Marina's bra or bikini top are made of shells.
- Exaggerated:
- The "fishy" part go down to Marina's bustline, it functions as a strapless dress.
- Even the pre-teen mermaids that have no boobs cover their chests, too.
- Downplayed: Marina just wears a fancy pearl necklace.
- Justified:
- Even in the merfolk society, breasts are considered as "private", hence why they're covered.
- Just a fashion statement.
- Inverted: Marina is topless, only covered by her long hair or pearl necklace.
- Subverted:
- Marina is apparently to be topless.
- Her top is made of fabric.
- It's later shown that in mer-society, they see clothing as optional.
- Double Subverted:
- Since many mermaids have high taste in fashion to the point of using some form of brassiere.
- Mermaids reject clothing during the film... but end adopting
- Parodied:
- Mermaids use shells as brassieres... even from animals that are still alive, or shells whose shape are not apprpriate for breat covering,
- Zig Zagged: It's a common fabric top, though it has a seashell pattern.
