Description
About the Dress: Faviana 11227
Faviana 11227 is a long fitted beaded mesh gown built for maximum impact. The bodice is covered in beading over a mesh base, structured with interior boning for support, and the silhouette hugs the body from the bust through the hips before the skirt sweeps out into a flowing finish. This gown is available in Navy Blue, Raspberry, and Peacock in sizes 0–16.
Fit & Silhouette
Faviana 11227 fits close to the body from the shoulders all the way through the hips. The skirt begins to open up below the hip, giving the hem a soft, floaty sweep rather than a rigid flare. This is a fitted silhouette — not a ballgown, not a mermaid — just a sleek, body-skimming shape that moves with you. The boned bodice keeps everything in place and gives the waist a clean, defined line. Women typically find this style runs true to size, though the structured bodice means it is important to take accurate measurements before ordering.
Fabric & Detail
The gown is constructed from a beaded mesh that covers both the bodice and the skirt. Tiny beads are sewn directly onto the mesh, creating an all-over sparkle that catches the light from every angle. The mesh itself is semi-sheer with a lining underneath so coverage is comfortable and secure. The bodice includes interior boning channels that act as a built-in corset, giving shape and support without needing a separate undergarment. Thin spaghetti straps rest on the shoulders to complete the look.
Key Features
- All-over beaded mesh construction for full-length sparkle
- V-neckline with thin spaghetti straps
- Boned bodice with built-in corset structure
- Crisscross lace-up back with open-back exposure to the waist
- Fitted silhouette with a soft, flowing skirt sweep
- Available in Navy Blue, Raspberry, and Peacock
- Sizes 0–16
Style & Occasion
Faviana 11227 works for prom, formal evenings, galas, engagement parties, holiday events, and pageants. The crisscross lace-up back lets you adjust the fit slightly on the day, which makes it practical for any event where you need to look polished from morning prep through the final dance. Wedding guests who want something that reads formal and glamorous without being bridal will find it works well for that setting too. Navy Blue is a deep, rich tone that photographs dramatically; Raspberry is a bold, saturated pink-red; and Peacock is a jewel-toned blue-green. All three are vivid in person — colors read deeper and more saturated on screen than in real life, so if you are undecided, our team is happy to help you choose based on your skin tone and event venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Faviana 11227 does several things at once that most long gowns do only one of. The most obvious is the all-over beaded mesh — the beading runs from the top of the bodice all the way to the hem of the skirt, so there is no unembellished section and no awkward visual break between bodice and skirt. A lot of beaded gowns put the detail on the bodice and switch to plain chiffon or tulle below the waist. On style 11227 the sparkle is consistent from shoulder to floor. The second thing that sets it apart is the crisscross lace-up back. The back is open from the top of the closure down to roughly the waist, so you get that dramatic open-back moment when you turn around, but the lace-up construction means you can actually control how snug or relaxed the fit is. If your measurements fall between two sizes or shift slightly on the day of your event, the lacing gives you real flexibility. Third is the boned bodice. The interior boning acts like a built-in corset, so the gown holds its shape and keeps you supported without a separate strapless bra or shapewear. The thin spaghetti straps add a delicate visual element without taking on any structural weight — the boning is doing the real work. Finally, the silhouette itself is distinctive. Faviana 11227 is firmly in the fitted category — it skims the body through the bust, waist, and hips — but the skirt opens into a soft, flowing sweep below the hip rather than staying pencil-straight to the floor. It gives the gown movement and a slight drama at the hem without the rigid flare of a mermaid or trumpet silhouette. The result is a gown that is sleek, structured, and sparkly all at once, which is harder to find than it sounds.
Faviana 11227 was built for occasions that call for serious glamour. The most common use cases our customers bring to us for this gown are prom, formal evening events, galas, pageants, and engagement parties. Let us walk through each one. For prom, style 11227 is one of the stronger choices in the Faviana lineup. The all-over beading, the open back, and the fitted silhouette all read as high-impact prom styling. If you want to make an entrance and have the look hold up through a full night of photos, dinner, and dancing, this gown is built for that. For galas and formal evenings, the long length and the consistent bead coverage give it the kind of floor-length polish that gala dress codes expect. The colour options — Navy Blue, Raspberry, Peacock — all work in formal settings where a neutral or a jewel tone is appropriate. For pageants, the full-length beading and the sleek fitted shape read as stage-appropriate. The gown photographs well under direct lighting because the beads catch and return light evenly across the whole surface. For engagement parties, the gown is glamorous without reading bridal, which is the right balance for an engagement event where the focus should be on the couple but the guest of honour still wants to look exceptional. For wedding guests at formal or black-tie-optional weddings, Faviana 11227 works well. The open back and the fitted silhouette are statement-making, so it is better suited to a fashion-forward wedding than a conservative religious ceremony, but for a formal evening reception it is a strong choice. For holiday events, the all-over beading makes it a natural fit for New Year's Eve or any late-December formal occasion where sparkle is expected. If you are unsure whether your specific event is the right fit, reach out — our team is happy to advise.
The back of Faviana 11227 uses a crisscross lace-up construction where ribbon or cord laces across the open back in an X pattern from top to bottom. To put the gown on, you loosen the lacing fully, step into the dress, position the bodice, then have someone tighten and tie the laces behind you — similar to lacing a corset. The adjustment range is meaningful but not unlimited. If you are between sizes, the lacing can close the gap of roughly one size in either direction. If you ordered a size 8 and your waist measures closer to a size 6 or a size 10, the lacing can accommodate that. If the difference is larger than one size in either direction, the boned bodice will either gap noticeably or pull uncomfortably, and no amount of lacing adjustment will fix the underlying fit issue. In that case, alterations at the seams are the better solution. The open-back exposure runs from the top of the lacing down to approximately the natural waist. Because the lacing crosses the opening rather than filling it, the back remains visually open even when fully tightened. This is intentional — it is a design feature, not a fit issue. If a fully covered back is important to you for your event, this style may not be the right fit. For getting into and out of the gown smoothly, practice the lacing process once before your event so you and your helper know how the tension should feel. Faviana 11227 comes in Navy Blue, Raspberry, Peacock and is cut in sizes 0-16. Every colour shares the same v-neck neckline and mesh, beaded construction, and the back laces up with crisscross ties; the back is open to the waist. The details that define this style — corset, beading — are the same across all sizes, so the look in the photos is what arrives.
Faviana 11227 works well in a prom group or court setting when the group has agreed on a colour palette rather than identical dresses. All three colourways — Navy Blue, Raspberry, and Peacock — are jewel tones, so they coordinate naturally with each other and with other deep-toned gowns from different designers. Navy Blue and Peacock have a cooler tone; Raspberry is warmer. All three read as formal and consistent in group photos without being identical. If you are the only one wearing Faviana 11227 and want to stand out, the all-over beading makes it easy to distinguish from less-embellished gowns in a group. It photographs distinctly even when surrounded by other formal gowns. If you are concerned about two people in the same group wearing the same gown, our team can check purchase records for your school or event date — reach out by text or WhatsApp and we can look into it for you.
Faviana 11227 runs true to size for most customers, but the fitted, boned silhouette means measurements need to be accurate. The most important measurement is your bust, because the boned bodice does not stretch. Take your bust measurement at the fullest point, your natural waist at its narrowest, and your hip at the fullest point — usually about 7–8 inches below the natural waist. Compare all three measurements to the Faviana size chart and size to whichever measurement is largest. If your bust fits a size 6 but your hips fit a size 8, order the 8 and have the bodice taken in slightly if needed. Taking in is straightforward; letting out depends on seam allowance. For height, Faviana 11227 is designed for a wearer around 5'7"–5'9" in heels. Petite wearers should plan for hemming. Tall wearers should check with us about length before ordering, as some gowns in the fitted category have limited hem allowance. For the lace-up back specifically: the lacing handles about one size of variance, so if you are right on the border between two sizes, ordering the larger and tightening the lacing is usually the safer choice.
The boned bodice of Faviana 11227 is designed to provide support on its own, so most wearers do not need a bra. The internal boning holds the bust in place and gives the bodice structure. Thin spaghetti straps add light shoulder support but the boning is carrying the weight. For the lower half, seamless underwear or a thong works best under the fitted silhouette. The beaded mesh skirt is not thick enough to hide lines from briefs with visible edges. Shapewear shorts that end above the hem of the skirt are fine if you prefer that, but given the boned bodice, most wearers find they do not need shapewear above the waist. Avoid adhesive bras or stick-on solutions — the beaded mesh surface inside the bodice is not skin-smooth, and adhesives do not bond well to beaded fabric. The built-in structure is the cleaner solution. For shoes, a heeled sandal or strappy heel works visually with the spaghetti straps and open back. The hem length is designed for heels, so flat shoes will cause the skirt to drag on the floor.
Yes, Faviana 11227 can be altered, and hemming for height is the most common alteration for this style. The skirt has enough fabric at the hem to allow for shortening without affecting the overall silhouette or the beading pattern near the bottom edge — though your tailor should inspect the hem before cutting, as beaded gowns sometimes require re-securing beads near the cut line. Taking in the bodice at the side seams is straightforward for an experienced formal-wear tailor. Letting out the bodice is more limited because the seam allowances in a boned, beaded garment are typically narrow — this is why we recommend sizing to your largest measurement and letting the lacing or alterations handle the rest. For the crisscross lace-up back, a tailor can adjust the placement of the lacing anchors if needed, though in most cases the lacing itself handles fit variation without modification. We recommend taking the gown to a tailor who has experience with beaded or embellished formal wear. General tailors can handle a plain gown, but beading adds complexity that requires someone comfortable working around embellished fabric. Allow two to three weeks for alterations before your event date to avoid a rush.
Faviana 11227 is built for a full night out. The boned bodice stays in place as you move, sit, stand, and dance — because the structure is internal rather than relying on friction or tape, you do not need to adjust or re-position the bodice throughout the evening. The lace-up back stays tied securely once properly fastened. Ask your helper to double-knot the tie at the end of the lacing so there is no risk of it loosening during the night. A small piece of ribbon or a safety pin tucked inside can secure the bow if you want extra insurance. The skirt of Faviana 11227 has a soft sweep that opens below the hip, giving your legs room to move. This is not a pencil skirt — you can walk freely, climb stairs, and dance without the fabric restricting your stride. The mesh base has a small amount of give, which helps with movement. The one area to be mindful of is sitting for long periods. With a boned bodice, some wearers find extended sitting slightly restrictive compared to an unboned gown. Taking the dress for a short try-on before your event to get a sense of the fit when seated is a good idea if this is a concern for you.
