LECANTO, FLORIDA

Founded by Eric Ducharme in April 2009, Mertailor LLC is a renowned company specializing in the creation of mermaid and mermen tails. Headquartered in Lecanto, Florida, Mertailor has carved out a prestigious position within both the entertainment industry and the broader market of aquatic fashion. Under the leadership of its creative director and sole owner, Eric Ducharme, who began his journey at just 16 years old, the company has grown into one of the world’s best-known entities in this niche field. Starting from humble beginnings with makeshift costumes constructed using simple materials like garbage bags and masking tape, Eric's passion for mermaids was ignited when he first attended a mermaid camp as a child. Leveraging his early experiences and the mentorship from former mermaid Barbara Wynns, Ducharme developed his tail designs while honing his sewing skills early on. Known internationally for its breathtakingly beautiful and whimsical designs, Mertailor has collaborated with prominent figures such as Lady Gaga and performers from RuPaul's Drag Race. The company’s creations have graced stages and screens worldwide, including in movies, network TV shows like Saturday Night Live, commercials, and music videos.
