Faviana 11401 V-Neck Satin Gown with Embroidered Floral Appliqués, Slit & Sweep Train

Fit & Silhouette

This gown contours through the bust, waist, and hips — it is body-hugging from the shoulders to the floor, with the exception of a gentle flare at the very hem where the sweep train begins. The fit leaves almost no ease, which means measurements need to be accurate before you order. Take your full bust, natural waist, and fullest hip measurement, then size to your largest number on Faviana's official chart. When two measurements land in one size and a third falls between, go up.

The high front slit is a fixed structural element — it opens at roughly mid-thigh and cannot be reduced without significant reconstruction. It is built for movement and for the visual line it creates through the leg, not for coverage. The spaghetti straps sit at a fixed position rather than on adjustable hardware, so shoulder width can factor into fit for some body types; a tailor can adjust strap length in a single appointment.

The gown is cut for a height of approximately five foot seven to five foot nine in heels. Petite wearers should plan for hem alterations. Budget for a tailor consultation when you order.

Fabric & Detail

The base fabric is high-sheen satin with a smooth, structured drape that holds the fitted silhouette through the body without visible boning. It reflects light cleanly from every angle — noticeably in venue photography and under ballroom lighting — and has enough substance to support the sweep train without drooping.

The beaded floral appliqués are the primary embellishment. Each appliqué is a distinct floral motif built from layered embroidery with individual beads threaded through the pattern. They sit along the bodice and follow the side seams, adding texture and dimension without turning the gown into an all-over beaded style. Up close they read as crafted and detailed; from across a room they read as refined surface interest rather than heavy ornamentation. They add modest weight to the bodice — perceptibly more than a plain satin gown, but not enough to affect posture or cause fatigue over a long evening. Dry cleaning only.

Style & Occasion

Faviana 11401 is built for occasions where the dress is meant to be noticed. The open back, high slit, and dimensional appliqués place it firmly in high-impact formal territory — not background formalwear, but a deliberate statement piece.

Prom is the strongest fit. The gown is designed and positioned for a formal dance environment where standing out is the intent, and it photographs beautifully under venue lighting. Evening galas, formal events, charity balls, and black-tie occasions are equally strong matches — this gown meets the expectations of a black-tie dress code comfortably. It is not suited for semi-formal events, cocktail dress codes, conservative formal settings, or religious ceremonies. The open back and high slit also make it a poor fit for traditional wedding-guest contexts.

For color choice: Black photographs sharply in any lighting and suits every event type. Ink Blue and Dark Hunter Green bring richness under ballroom lighting. Light Blue has a luminous, ethereal quality — particularly strong for prom photography. Red commands immediate attention. Silver reads gown-worthy under almost any venue lighting.
