Frequently Asked Questions

How does the back closure on the Faviana 11118 work, and can I adjust the fit with it?

The back closure on Faviana 11118 is a crisscross lace-up tie at the lower back — not a zipper, not a hook-and-eye, but an actual lace that you thread and tie yourself. This is technically called a crisscross back, and because the entire back panel is open above and around the lacing, the dress qualifies as a fully open-back style as well. Here is how the adjustment works in practice: when you lace it up, you control how tightly the tie cinches at the lower back. If you ordered a size that fits your hips but is very slightly loose in the waist, the lacing gives you a small degree of take-up. It is not a replacement for accurate sizing — the main fitted structure through the bust, waist, and hips is cut into the dress itself — but it does mean you have a real option for minor tweaking on the day of the event. A few things to keep in mind with a lace-up back like this. First, you will almost certainly need someone to help you tie it correctly. Doing it yourself in a mirror tends to produce uneven tension, and uneven tension means one side pulls slightly tighter than the other. Have a friend or a parent tie it for you and check both sides before you leave. Second, once it is tied, tuck the excess lace ends in so they do not hang visibly. Third, if you plan to have alterations done, tell your seamstress the back is a lace-up open-back — this affects how they can take in the body of the dress if needed. For undergarments: because the back is fully open from the shoulder blades down to the lower back where the tie sits, a traditional bra is not going to work with this dress. You will need a low-back adhesive bra, fashion tape, or a built-in solution. Faviana 11118 does not have significant built-in support in the bust area, so plan your undergarment choice before the event rather than the night of. If you are unsure what to order, our team is happy to talk through options with you — text or WhatsApp us and we can help you figure it out before you buy.

What events and occasions is the Faviana 11118 actually right for, and where does it not work?

Faviana 11118 is designed for short, energetic events where a bold, body-close cocktail-length dress fits the dress code. The four events it is best matched to are homecoming, cocktail parties, semi-formal events, and after-prom. Here is the reasoning behind each, and what to realistically expect. Homecoming is the most natural fit. The dress is short, fitted, covered in floral beading, and comes in a standout fuchsia pink — that combination is exactly what homecoming is built around. The lace-up open back adds drama without going over the top for a high school dance environment. Cocktail parties and semi-formal events work well because the dress hits cocktail length, the beading reads as elevated rather than casual, and the v-neck keeps the front sophisticated. If the event has a cocktail-code dress requirement, Faviana 11118 clears that bar comfortably. After-prom is a logical choice if you are looking for a second dress to change into after the main prom gown, or if you are attending a separate after-prom event that has a shorter dress code. Where does it not work? A few categories to be direct about. This dress is not appropriate as a wedding guest dress — the fully open back and fitted bodycon mini silhouette are too bold for a wedding guest context under our event rules. It is also not a mother-of-the-bride or formal evening gown context; the length and styling are clearly aimed at a younger, high-energy event. It is not a prom main gown in the traditional sense — most prom events where a floor-length gown is expected would make this feel underdressed, though it could work for a very casual or non-traditional prom depending on your school's culture. The fuchsia pink color is a major personality statement. If you want to blend in at your event rather than stand out, this is not the dress. If you want to be noticed, it is exactly right. For any questions about whether this dress is right for a specific event you have in mind, reach out and we will give you an honest answer rather than just a sales pitch.

Does the Faviana 11118 run true to size, and how do I find my size?

Faviana 11118 runs close to true to size for most customers, but because the silhouette is fully fitted through the bust, waist, and hips with no give in the skirt, the hips are the measurement that matters most. Start with your hip measurement — if your hips fall between two sizes, size up rather than down. A dress that is slightly loose through the waist can be taken in by a seamstress without much trouble; a dress that is too tight through the hips is very difficult to let out. Check the Faviana size chart on our product page and match your measurements directly. Do not go by the size you usually wear in retail clothing — formal dress sizing and everyday clothing sizing are different systems. Measure your bust, natural waist, and hips with a soft tape measure, then compare all three to the chart. The size that fits your largest measurement without going over is your starting point. If you are between sizes across different measurements — for example, a size 6 in the bust and a size 8 in the hips — order the 8 and have the bust taken in if needed. Alterations on the bodice of a beaded dress are possible but should be done by someone with experience working on beaded or embroidered garments. Not every dry cleaner or tailor handles beaded fabric well, so ask before you commit.

What kind of undergarments work with the open back on Faviana 11118?

Because Faviana 11118 has a fully open back from the shoulder blades down to the lower back where the lace-up tie sits, a standard underwire bra will not work. The bra band sits across the back exactly where the dress is open, and it will be completely visible. The most reliable option for a dress like this is a low-back adhesive bra. These use silicone or fabric adhesive cups that attach directly to your skin with no band across the back. They are widely available at lingerie stores and online, and they work well with a v-neckline at the front. Make sure you do a fit test at home before the event — adhesive bras need to bond properly to clean, dry skin to stay secure when you are dancing. Fashion tape is another option if you need minimal support and mostly want to keep the front fabric from shifting. For more support, some people pair a low-back bra with a thin adhesive strip across the front for extra hold. Faviana 11118 does not have significant built-in boning or cups in the bust — there is no underwire built into the dress itself. Plan your undergarment choice before the event. If you are shopping in person closer to your event date and need a recommendation, our team can point you toward what other customers have used successfully with this style.

Can the Faviana 11118 be hemmed or altered, and what should I tell my tailor?

Yes, Faviana 11118 can be hemmed and altered, but there are a few things to tell your tailor before they start. First, the dress is covered in beading, embroidery, and floral appliqués. Any tailor who works on this dress needs experience with beaded or embellished garments. Cutting a beaded hem without re-securing the beading at the new edge can cause the beads or embroidery to unravel upward over time. Ask your tailor directly whether they have worked on beaded dresses before committing. Second, the back has a lace-up open-back construction. If the tailor needs to take in the body of the dress, they will be working around the lacing detail. Make sure they see the back of the dress before they quote you — some tailors charge differently for laced or open-back styles. Third, if you are hemming for height, try the dress on with the shoes you plan to wear, then have the tailor pin the hem. The current length is short and sits well above the knee, so even a small hem can meaningfully change the proportion of the dress on your frame. For most customers, the dress fits well off the rack and does not need hemming — the short length is fairly universal. If your primary concern is the body fit through the hips or waist, that is a simpler alteration on a fitted dress than a hem on a beaded skirt.

How does the fuchsia pink color look in person compared to photos, and are there other color options?

The fuchsia pink on Faviana 11118 is vivid and warm in person — it leans toward a bright magenta-pink rather than a softer or pastel pink. In photos under studio lighting it can appear slightly more saturated than it looks in natural daylight, but the difference is not dramatic. It is consistently a bold, high-energy color that reads clearly as fuchsia across different lighting environments. Under indoor event lighting — which is typically warmer and dimmer than outdoor or studio light — the pink tends to appear richer and slightly deeper. Under bright LED or fluorescent lighting it can look very close to the product photos. Either way, this is not a color that recedes or looks washed out under typical event conditions. In terms of photography on the day of your event, fuchsia pink photographs very well — the contrast between the vivid pink and the floral beading detail shows clearly in both phone photos and professional event photography. As of the current product listing, Faviana 11118 is available in Fuchsia Pink. If you are interested in whether additional colorways have been added since this listing was updated, contact us directly and we will check current availability with Faviana before you place your order. Color availability on short cocktail styles can change between seasons, and we would rather confirm it for you than have you order a color that is no longer in stock.

How does Marlas Fashions ship the Faviana 11118, and how long does delivery take?

Marlas Fashions ships Faviana 11118 from warehouses in Los Angeles and New York. Standard delivery takes 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is processed. If you have a specific event date, count backward from that date before placing your order — 7 to 12 business days is the standard window, but giving yourself extra time is always the safer choice for an event dress. Rush shipping is available if your timeline is tight. Contact us before or at the time of ordering to confirm rush options and current availability for your destination. We ship to the United States, Canada, and internationally. Canadian orders ship from our Toronto warehouse, and there are no import duties on shipments within the US or Canada. International shipments outside North America are fully tracked, but duty and customs fees may apply depending on your country — check with your local customs office if you are ordering from outside North America. All orders include tracking so you can follow your package from the warehouse to your door. If your shipment is delayed or you have not received a tracking update, contact us and we will follow up with the carrier directly.

What is the return and exchange policy for the Faviana 11118?

Marlas Fashions accepts returns and exchanges on Faviana 11118 subject to the standard policy. You have three options: store credit that never expires, an exchange for a different size or style, or a refund less a 30 percent restocking fee. To be eligible for any of these options, the dress must be returned in its original condition — unworn, unaltered, with all original tags attached. Dresses that have been worn, hemmed, altered, or show signs of use are not eligible for return or exchange. If you ordered a size and it does not fit, an exchange is the most straightforward path. Contact us as soon as you receive the dress and try it on without removing tags or altering anything, and we will walk you through the exchange process. If you are unsure about sizing before you order, reach out to us first — we can help you compare your measurements to the Faviana size chart so you are more confident going in. Getting the size right the first time is easier than managing a return on an event dress with a deadline.
