Frequently Asked Questions

What is the return policy if I order this dress and it doesn't fit when I try it on at home?

At Marlas Fashions, you can return or exchange Faviana 11513 if it doesn't work out — you don't have to commit before you've tried it on in your own space. Returns are accepted for store credit that never expires, or for an exchange for a different size or style. If you prefer a refund to your original payment method, that is also available, minus a 30% restocking fee. The restocking fee exists because formal dresses are inspected, steamed, and re-packaged between orders, but we want you to know your options upfront so there are no surprises. To return or exchange, the dress must be in its original unworn condition with all tags attached — trying it on at home is fine, wearing it to the event is not. The simplest approach most customers take is to order the size they measure into and one size up, try both at home, and send back the one that doesn't fit. Because Faviana 11513 is a bodycon style with a fitted silhouette through the bust, waist, and hips, sizing is critical — a size too small will feel tight through the hips even if the bust fits, and a size too large will gap at the V-neckline. Faviana cuts generally run true to size, so your standard measurements are a reliable starting point. If you are between sizes, the stretch in the satin fabric gives a little room, but sizing up is the safer call for this style. One practical note: the open back and crisscross strap detail mean the dress needs to sit correctly on your specific frame to look as intended. Trying it on at home before any alterations lets you see exactly how the straps fall and whether the waistband trim lines up where it should. If you have questions about sizing before you order, or want help deciding between two sizes, reach out — we are happy to walk you through it. Returns and exchanges are straightforward, and store credit never expires, so there is no pressure to rush a decision.

What makes the Faviana 11513 different from other short fitted dresses in this category?

Most short fitted dresses in this price range offer either a bold neckline or a statement back — the Faviana 11513 delivers both in the same look, which is what separates it from similar styles. The front features a deep V-neckline with beaded trim running along both edges of the V, so even from the front the dress has texture and detail rather than a plain fabric cut. The back takes it further: the entire back is open, and two crossed straps form a deliberate X above the waist, both finished in the same beaded ribbon trim as the neckline. That continuity of the trim detail — front V, waistband band, and back straps all in matching beaded ribbon — gives the dress a cohesive, designed look rather than the feeling of separate decorative add-ons. The fabric is a smooth satin with natural stretch. It moves with the body rather than holding a rigid shape, which means the dress looks polished when you are standing still but also stays comfortable and fluid when you are dancing or moving. Many bodycon dresses in this category use a thicker structured fabric that can feel restrictive; the satin-stretch combination here avoids that. The Lemon Yellow colorway is also worth noting as a differentiator. It is a true, saturated yellow — not pastel, not mustard — and the satin sheen amplifies the vibrancy under event lighting. If you are comparing this to a similar short fitted dress in a darker or neutral color, the yellow makes a completely different visual statement. Finally, the crisscross back strap detail is functional as well as decorative: it provides structure across the open back without adding coverage, so the dress stays in place through movement. For a night that involves dancing, that structural support matters. Every Faviana 11513 that leaves our warehouse is inspected by hand before shipping, so the beadwork, seams, and closures arrive exactly as the designer intended.

How does the back closure work on the Faviana 11513, and can I adjust the fit once I have it on?

The Faviana 11513 has a crisscross strap back, not a zipper or lace-up closure. The two straps cross at the lower back to form an X shape, and the dress goes on by stepping into it and pulling it up rather than zipping or hooking from behind. Because the fabric has natural stretch, most customers find it easy to get in and out of without help. The fit through the body is determined by the size you order — the crisscross straps are decorative and structural but do not have an adjustment mechanism like a lace-up back would. This means getting your size right before you order matters more than it would on a corset-style dress where the lacing allows some size range. If you are between sizes, the stretch fabric accommodates a small amount of variation, but the straps and the V-neckline will look different depending on how the dress sits on your specific frame. One practical consideration: the fully open back means there is no hidden panel or modesty layer at the back. The X-strap detail frames the open back, and nothing underneath will be concealed. Plan your undergarments accordingly — adhesive bras, stick-on cups, or low-back bra converters are the most common solutions customers use with this style.

Can I wear this dress as part of a homecoming court group, and how does it coordinate with other styles?

Yes — the Faviana 11513 works well in a group setting. Its fitted short silhouette and solid Lemon Yellow colorway coordinate naturally with other fitted short dresses without requiring an exact match. If your group or court is mixing styles, this dress holds its own alongside both strapless and off-shoulder cuts because the thin-strap V-neck is a clean, non-competing shape. The Lemon Yellow color is vivid enough to read as a cohesive group color if others are wearing the same shade, and distinctive enough to stand out if the group is wearing different complementary colors. The beaded trim adds a level of detail that photographs well in group shots — under event lighting the beading catches the light and gives the dress presence without looking overdone. If coordination with a damas group is the goal, the simplest approach is to share the style number so others can reference the same silhouette, then choose colors from the available options that work together. Because the dress is a clean solid-color style with trim detail rather than a print or heavily embellished surface, it is one of the easier styles to coordinate around.

How does the Faviana 11513 fit, and is it true to size?

Faviana 11513 runs true to size. The bodycon cut fits close through the bust, waist, and hips, so your standard dress measurements are the right starting point. Use your fullest hip measurement as the primary guide — on a bodycon style the hips are usually the tightest point. If your hip measurement puts you between sizes, size up. The satin fabric has a natural stretch that gives a small amount of ease, but this is not a stretchy jersey-knit dress — the stretch is modest, and sizing to fit your hips correctly is more important than trying to compress into a smaller size. If you are petite or taller than average, the short hemline may fall differently than shown. The hem length is fixed, so hemming by a tailor is straightforward if you need to adjust it. Busty customers sometimes find they need a size up to get the right fit through the chest without the V opening wider than intended, so keep that in mind when sizing. Our team is happy to help you work through measurements if you are unsure.

What occasions and events is the Faviana 11513 actually right for?

Faviana 11513 is best suited for homecoming dances, cocktail parties, semi-formal events, and after-prom nights. The open back and bodycon silhouette make it a strong choice for any event where bold, body-confident dressing is the norm. It is not the right choice for occasions that call for modesty — the fully open back disqualifies it for wedding-guest events, and the short fitted style is not suited to formal or black-tie settings. Think of it as a high-energy event dress: it performs best when the venue has good lighting, a dance floor, and a crowd that appreciates a statement look. Homecoming in particular is the natural home for this style — the vivid Lemon Yellow, the beaded trim, and the dramatic open back are exactly what that environment calls for. After-prom and cocktail parties are equally good fits. If you are unsure whether the style suits your specific event, the open-back factor is the clearest guide: if your event is relaxed enough for a dramatic open back, this dress works.

What undergarments work best with the Faviana 11513?

Because the back is fully open and the neckline is a deep V, traditional bras do not work with this style. The most common solutions are adhesive stick-on bra cups, a low-back bra converter paired with a regular bra, or fashion tape for light support and security. The thin shoulder straps provide some physical support, and the fitted satin fabric holds the bodice in place around the torso, so customers with a smaller bust often find they can go without any bra alternative and rely on the dress itself. If you need more support, silicone adhesive cups in a nude or matching color are the most practical option — they stay in place through dancing and are not visible through the open back or around the straps. Avoid shapewear that shows above the back hemline of the bodice, as the open back will expose anything worn beneath it. Test your undergarment setup at home before the event so you are comfortable with the fit.

Can the Faviana 11513 be hemmed or altered, and what should I tell my tailor?

Yes, the Faviana 11513 can be altered. The most common adjustment is hemming the length if the dress falls too long or too short on your frame — a local tailor can take up the hem cleanly. Because the fabric is satin with stretch, tell your tailor the fabric has some give so they can account for that when pressing and stitching the hem. Taking in or letting out the side seams is also possible if the fit through the body needs adjustment, but because the dress is bodycon and fitted, a tailor will need to check that any side-seam alteration preserves the smooth, uninterrupted line of the satin. The beaded trim at the neckline and waistband is applied trim, not woven into the fabric, so a tailor can work around it without disturbing it. If you need the V-neckline adjusted for modesty, that is a more involved alteration — it is better to size correctly for the neckline fit than to alter the V after the fact. Bring the shoes you plan to wear to your fitting so the tailor can set the hem at the right height.
