Description
About the Dress: Faviana 11509
Faviana 11509 is a short fitted stretch satin mini dress built around a dramatic deep V-neckline and a structured boned bodice. A sheer mesh insert sits at the plunge of the V, adding a subtle layer of detail without changing the neckline shape. Diagonal ruching sweeps across the hip and skirt, giving the silhouette movement and definition. This is a bold, body-conscious style designed to make an impact.
Fit & Silhouette
Faviana 11509 is fully fitted from the bust through the hips, following the body closely from top to hem. The boned bodice provides structure and support, so the dress holds its shape throughout the night. Two thin adjustable spaghetti straps sit at the shoulders. The skirt ends at a short mini length. This is a close-fitting style — if you prefer more room, size up. Faviana sizing runs close to standard US sizing; refer to the Faviana size chart and measure your bust, waist, and hips before ordering. If you are between sizes, the lace-up back allows some adjustment at the waistline.
Fabric & Detail
The body of Faviana 11509 is cut in stretch satin — Faviana's signature stretch satin, which has a smooth, lustrous surface and enough give to move with you. A sheer mesh panel fills the deep V plunge at the bodice front. Visible boning channels run vertically through the bodice, providing structure without a separate undergarment. Diagonal ruching across the hip and skirt adds texture and draws the eye around the body's curves. The lace-up closure at the back is finished with a substantial open-back cut-out above and around the lacing.

Style & Occasion
Faviana 11509 is the right choice when you want to stand out. The combination of the deep V, boned bodice, open back, and ruched mini skirt makes it a strong option for homecoming, cocktail parties, semi-formal events, and after-prom. It photographs exceptionally well under event lighting — the stretch satin catches light evenly across all four colorways. Cherry is the most saturated and eye-catching in person. Dark Hunter Green reads as a deep jewel tone. Ink Blue has a cool, slightly muted depth. Royal Blue is the brightest and most vivid of the four. Pair with a strappy heel and minimal jewelry to let the dress carry the look — a thin gold chain or small drop earrings work well. A small clutch in a metallic or neutral finish keeps the styling clean. Marlas Fashions is an authorized Faviana retailer with over 40 years in the business, and every dress is inspected before it ships.

Frequently Asked Questions
Faviana 11509 is built for events where you want to make an impact in a short, fitted dress. The combination of the deep V-neckline, open lace-up back, boned bodice, and ruched mini skirt puts this firmly in bold cocktail and semi-formal territory.
Homecoming is the strongest fit. The dress has the right energy for a homecoming dance — it photographs well, moves well on the dance floor, and the boned bodice means you stay comfortable and supported through a full evening of dancing. All four colorways work for homecoming court looks or guest styling.
Cocktail parties and semi-formal events are a natural second home for this style. The structured bodice and satin fabric give it a polished look that reads as dressed-up without being overly formal. For a cocktail party with a dressy code, this fits the brief well.
After-prom is another strong match. The dress holds up through a long night and the secure boned construction means you are not adjusting anything. It is designed to be worn and enjoyed, not handled carefully.
For school or grade-8 dances, this is on the bolder end of what is typically appropriate — the open back and deep V are quite exposed. Check the event's dress code before committing.
For prom, this style skews more toward cocktail than traditional prom. It is a short mini, which is wearable to prom but not the primary look associated with formal prom. If your prom has a more casual or party-oriented vibe, it can absolutely work. If your prom is very formal with floor-length gowns dominating, you may want to consider a longer option.
Wedding guest wear is not a good fit for this dress. The exposed open back and body-conscious cut are better suited for party and dance events than a wedding reception setting.
If you have a specific event or dress code and want a straight answer on whether this works, text or WhatsApp the Marlas Fashions concierge at +1 416-536-2956 or +1 213-868-3131 — they can give you a fast, direct recommendation.
The four colorways of Faviana 11509 each photograph slightly differently from how they read in real light, so this is worth thinking through before you order.
Cherry is the boldest of the four. In person it is a true, saturated red with a warm undertone — not coral, not burgundy. Product photos can sometimes pull it slightly orange depending on the lighting setup, but on the dress it reads as a classic red with real depth. Under event lighting it is vivid and commanding. If you want the most attention-grabbing option, this is it.
Dark Hunter Green is a deep jewel tone that photographs close to how it looks in person. It has a richness that shows up well against most skin tones and tends to look slightly darker in low light and brighter under venue spotlights. It is one of the more versatile colorways if you want something bold but not a traditional red or blue.
Ink Blue sits between navy and midnight — it has a cool undertone and a slight softness to its depth. In photos it can read almost navy, but in person there is a bit more complexity to it. Under warm ballroom lighting it can appear slightly warmer than it does in daylight photos. If you want something dark, sophisticated, and a little unexpected, Ink Blue is a strong choice.
Royal Blue is the most vivid and bright of the four. Photos capture it accurately — it is a clear, saturated cobalt-adjacent blue with no purple or grey. It stands out in a crowd and photographs very well under event lighting. If you are choosing between Royal Blue and Ink Blue, the question is brightness versus depth.
For skin tone guidance: Cherry and Royal Blue tend to pop against deeper skin tones. Ink Blue and Dark Hunter Green are flattering across a wide range. If you are still deciding, Cherry and Royal Blue are the top sellers for homecoming and cocktail events. If you want a second opinion before ordering, the team at Marlas Fashions can pull the colorways side by side — just reach out.
Faviana 11509 is made in stretch satin, which is a delicate fabric that requires careful handling. For cleaning, dry cleaning is the safest route. If the dress picks up a minor spot, blot gently with a clean damp cloth — do not rub, and avoid soaking the fabric, as satin can water-stain. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
For storage, hang the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag. Avoid plastic dry-cleaning bags for long-term storage, as they can trap moisture. Keep it away from direct sunlight to protect the color — this applies especially to Cherry and Royal Blue, which can fade with prolonged light exposure.
For travel, pack it in a breathable garment bag and lay it as flat as possible in your luggage if the bag allows. If you are folding it, fold along the ruching lines rather than against them to minimize crease lines. Light steaming on a low setting will relax any travel wrinkles. Do not iron directly on the satin — use a pressing cloth or a garment steamer held a few inches away. The mesh panel at the V can be steamed carefully on a very low heat setting.
If you are wearing it the same day you arrive somewhere, hang it in the bathroom during a hot shower — the steam will release most travel creases without any direct heat on the fabric.
The dress carries the look on its own, so the best approach is to accessorize in a way that supports rather than competes with it.
For shoes, a strappy heeled sandal is the most versatile choice. A thin-strap heel in nude, gold, silver, or a tone-on-tone match to your colorway will lengthen the leg and keep the eye moving through the look. A block heel or platform works if you prefer more stability on the dance floor — look for something with a clean silhouette so it does not add visual weight below the mini hem. For Cherry, a gold or clear heel reads well. For Ink Blue or Royal Blue, silver or metallic is a clean pairing. For Dark Hunter Green, gold or champagne tones work beautifully.
For jewelry, keep it minimal. The deep V-neckline and open back are the focal points — layering heavy necklaces competes with both. A simple thin chain or a small pendant sits well in the V. Drop earrings or small hoops work nicely; chandelier earrings can work if they are delicate. Avoid chunky statement necklaces that cut across the neckline.
For a bag, a small clutch in metallic, satin, or a neutral keeps the look polished. Avoid large bags that distract from the silhouette.
Hair worn up shows off the open lace-up back — if you want that detail to be seen, an updo or half-up style is the clear choice.
The boned bodice and diagonal ruching are both doing real work in terms of how this dress fits and flatters.
The boned bodice creates a defined waist even without a belt or cinching — the structure holds your shape and supports your bust, which is particularly helpful if you prefer a dress that does not rely on you for its shape. The adjustable spaghetti straps let you position the bodice correctly for your torso length.
The diagonal ruching across the hip and skirt is flattering for a wide range of figures because it draws the eye along an angled line rather than straight across the hips. It adds visual interest without adding bulk, and the stretch satin moves with the body rather than pulling or restricting.
For a fuller bust, the boned bodice provides support and structure — this is one area where Faviana 11509 performs better than unstructured mini dresses. The deep V-neckline is flattering but genuinely deep, so consider fashion tape at the plunge if you prefer it stays in place during movement.
For a straighter figure, the ruching and the fitted cut create the appearance of a defined waist and hip curve.
If you are between sizes, the lace-up back allows a small amount of adjustment at the waist — sizing up and taking it in slightly at the back is a common approach. For the most accurate fit, measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare against the Faviana size chart.
Marlas Fashions ships from warehouses in Los Angeles and New York, with Canadian orders fulfilled from a Toronto warehouse — no customs duties or import fees for US or Canadian customers.
Standard shipping takes 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is confirmed. Rush processing and expedited shipping options are available at checkout if you have a closer event date. International shipping is available worldwide with full tracking on every order.
If you have a specific date you need the dress by, it is worth confirming availability and lead time before ordering — especially during peak homecoming and semi-formal season when certain colorways can have longer lead times. The Marlas Fashions team can confirm current inventory and estimated delivery windows for your location. Every Faviana 11509 that leaves our warehouse is inspected by hand before shipping, so the beadwork, seams, and closures arrive exactly as the designer intended. If you are between sizes on the Faviana 11509, our team can talk you through the size chart against your own measurements before you order.
Marlas Fashions accepts returns for store credit, exchanges, or a refund less a 30% restocking fee. Store credit never expires, so if the dress does not work for this event, you have full credit to use toward another style.
If you are ordering specifically to try the dress at home before your event, keep this policy in mind and give yourself enough time between arrival and your event date to assess the fit and, if needed, initiate a return or exchange. Ordering at least three to four weeks before your event is a reasonable buffer when accounting for shipping both ways.
The dress must be returned in its original unworn condition with tags attached. If you have specific questions about eligibility for a return before you order, the Marlas Fashions team can walk you through the details. Steaming on low from the inside is the safest way to release travel creases from the Faviana 11509 without touching the embellishment. Order the Faviana 11509 early in your event season - popular colorways sell through fastest, and early orders leave time for alterations.
A few construction details separate Faviana 11509 from most short satin mini dresses at this price point.
First, the boned bodice. Visible boning channels run through the bodice, which is not standard on most short party dresses. This gives the dress structure, supports the bust without a bra, and keeps everything in place through a full evening of dancing. Most unstructured mini dresses in this category rely entirely on the fabric and straps to hold shape — Faviana 11509 does not.
Second, the open lace-up back. The back is a genuine design feature, not just a closure. There is a substantial open-back cut-out above and around the lacing that makes the back view as strong as the front. If you are wearing this to an event where the back view matters — dancing, walking, photos — this is a detail that pays off.
Third, the stretch satin fabric. Faviana uses a stretch satin that has give without losing its smooth surface. It moves with the body rather than restricting it, which makes a real difference in wearability for a full-length event.
The combination of structured boning, a genuine open back, and diagonal ruching gives this dress more visual complexity than a standard fitted mini, while still reading as a clean, put-together look.
