Faviana 11428 Beaded Mesh Mermaid Gown with Floral Appliqués & Open Crisscross Back

Fit & Silhouette

Faviana 11428 fits close to the body from the bust all the way through the hips — this is a true mermaid, not a loose A-line with a fitted bodice. The stretch mesh construction moves with you and allows a natural stride, but the silhouette leaves little room for sizing error. Measure your full bust, natural waist, and fullest hip, then match all three to Faviana's size chart. When measurements fall into different size brackets, go with the largest. The crisscross lace-up ties at the back offer a small amount of adjustment at the waist — useful for bridging a half-size gap — but they are not a replacement for ordering the right size. The spaghetti straps are not adjustable, so torso length is worth factoring in. Petite wearers should plan for a hem alteration; the gown is cut for a standard height and the train adds a small extension beyond a clean floor break.

Fabric & Detail

The base of Faviana 11428 is a stretch mesh — a fine, slightly sheer net with enough elasticity to conform to the mermaid shape without pulling or distorting across the hips. Beaded floral appliqué clusters are layered over the mesh across the bodice and skirt, adding texture and light-catching detail from every angle. The appliqués are designed to hold through a full evening; avoid snagging on rough surfaces or corsage pins. Dry cleaning is the recommended care method for a beaded gown of this construction. Hang storage between wearings preserves the mermaid shape and protects the beads from compression.

Style & Occasion

Faviana 11428 is built for prom. The floor-length beaded mermaid silhouette, the open crisscross back, and the floral appliqué detail give this long prom dress the kind of statement presence that prom venues are designed for. Both colorways — Dark Hunter Green and Cherry — photograph well under ballroom and stage lighting, and the open back becomes a visual focal point on the dance floor and at the front of the room.

Beyond prom, this gown works for formal evening events and galas where floor-length, body-contoured formal gowns are expected: charity galas, formal award dinners, black-tie-adjacent fundraisers. The beaded appliqués read refined in genuinely formal settings. It is not suited for cocktail events, semi-formal occasions, or casual outdoor venues where the train would be impractical.

For shoes, a strappy heeled sandal in metallic gold, silver, or a skin-tone nude extends the leg line cleanly. Keep jewelry simple — small hoops or an ear cuff — so the beaded bodice stays the focal point. An upswept hairstyle or a sleek low bun exposes the neckline and lets the open back read as a complete design. A slim metallic clutch or minaudière finishes the look. For Dark Hunter Green, gold accessories read warmly; for Cherry, silver or gold both work.
