Frequently Asked Questions

Will the corset bodice of Faviana 11613E support a fuller bust without straps?

Yes, that is exactly what the corset is built to do. Faviana 11613E has real boning sewn through the bodice, and those channels keep the top edge firm and upright so the gown does not depend on tight fabric alone to stay up. On the extended-size pattern, the cups and side seams are drafted for a fuller bust, so the neckline sits where it should instead of flattening the chest. The lace-up back adds a second layer of control. Lace it firmly for a secure, lifted fit through a long night of dancing, or loosen it slightly while you sit through dinner. Because the lacing crosses over a covered panel, adjusting it never changes how much of your back is visible. Many customers wear Faviana 11613E with a strapless longline bra or adhesive cups for extra lift. If you plan to dance a lot, a strip of fashion tape along the inside top edge keeps everything exactly in place.

How should I measure for Faviana 11613E, and what if I fall between sizes 18E and 24E?

A mermaid gown is fitted from the bust to the knee, so all three measurements matter. Measure your bust at the fullest point, your natural waist at the narrowest point, and your hips at the widest point, with a soft tape held level and snug but not tight. Compare all three to the Faviana extended-size chart before choosing. If your measurements fall across two sizes, choose the size that fits your largest measurement. A tailor can take in the waist or the bust through the side seams, but there is very little room to let a fitted stretch satin gown out. The lace-up back also gives you some adjustment at the bodice, which helps if your bust is the smaller measurement. The flare of a mermaid skirt should begin around the knee. If you are petite, the flare may start a little lower on you; a skilled tailor can lift it by taking the hem up from the front while preserving the shape of the train. Plan for length too. The gown is drafted for a tall wearer in heels, so most customers have the front hem shortened. Bring the shoes you will wear to the fitting, because a change of even one inch in heel height changes where the hem should fall. If you are unsure, send us your bust, waist and hip measurements with your usual dress size. Our stylists fit this collection in the boutique every week and will tell you how Faviana 11613E is likely to fit your body before you order. A good fit matters more on a mermaid gown than on almost any other silhouette, because the flare only falls beautifully when the gown sits correctly at the hips. Taking ten minutes to measure carefully now saves a return later, and it means your gown arrives ready for the event.

Which occasions is Faviana 11613E right for, and where would it feel too formal?

Faviana 11613E is a floor-length mermaid gown with a sparkling bodice, so it belongs at events with a formal or black-tie dress code. Prom is its natural home, and it looks just as right at galas, award dinners and charity balls where a fitted silhouette and some sparkle are expected. It is also a strong choice for a wedding guest at an evening or black-tie reception. Cherry and Dark Hunter Green read rich and elegant for a guest, while Silver and Gold are best when the invitation leans glamorous. Check that your chosen shade will not clash with the wedding party. Where would it feel too much? At cocktail parties, daytime events or semi-formal dances, a floor-length mermaid gown with hot-stones will look overdressed. For those, a shorter or simpler style is the better fit. If you are unsure about your dress code, tell us the event and we will give you an honest answer.

How should I clean, store and travel with Faviana 11613E?

Faviana 11613E is made in stretch satin with a hot-stone corset bodice, so treat it as a dry-clean-only gown. Do not machine wash or hand wash it, and do not iron it directly. To release creases, hang it in a steamy bathroom for twenty minutes or use a handheld steamer held a few inches away from the fabric. Keep the steamer moving and away from the stones, and choose a cleaner experienced with embellished eveningwear. For storage, hang the gown on a padded hanger using the inner hanging loops so its weight is not carried by the bodice edge. Keep it in a breathable cotton garment bag rather than plastic, away from direct sunlight and heat, which can fade color over time. For travel, fold the gown loosely in tissue paper inside its garment bag and carry it on rather than checking it. Hang it up as soon as you arrive and give it a few hours to relax before the event.

How quickly can Faviana 11613E arrive, and which warehouse ships it?

Faviana 11613E ships from the Marlas Fashions warehouses in Los Angeles and New York for US orders, and from our Toronto warehouse for Canadian orders. Standard delivery usually takes 7 to 12 business days from the day your order is placed, and every order travels with full tracking so you can follow it to your door. US and Canadian customers pay no duties or import charges at delivery, which means the price you see at checkout is the price you pay. If your event is close, rush shipping is available on many sizes and colorways. Contact the team before you order so we can confirm that your exact size and color can make your date. International orders ship worldwide with tracking, and delivery times vary by country, so ask us for an estimate if you are outside North America. Every Faviana 11613E is checked by hand before it leaves the warehouse. Order as early as you can, so there is time for a hem or a small fitting adjustment once the gown arrives.

If Faviana 11613E does not fit, what are my return and exchange options?

You can try Faviana 11613E on at home before you commit. If it does not work, you have three choices: store credit that never expires, a direct exchange for another size or color, or a refund minus a 30% restocking fee. The fee covers the inspection, steaming and repackaging every returned gown goes through before it can be sold again. To qualify, the gown has to come back unworn apart from trying it on, unaltered, and in its original condition with all tags and packaging. Try it on indoors on a clean floor, without makeup near the neckline, so nothing marks the fabric. Gowns that show wear, alterations or damage cannot be accepted. The easiest return is the one you never need, so if you are deciding between two sizes, send us your bust, waist and hip measurements first. Call or text our Toronto boutique at 416-536-2956 and our stylists will help you find your perfect dress.

How do Silver, Gold, Cherry and Dark Hunter Green compare on Faviana 11613E, and how should I accessorize?

Each colorway of Faviana 11613E gives the hot-stones a different effect. Silver, shown in the photos, is a cool, luminous metallic that turns the whole gown into a column of light under event lighting; it is the most dramatic choice and photographs beautifully with flash. Gold is warmer and slightly softer, and it flatters warm and olive skin tones especially well. Both metallic shades are ideal for prom and glamorous galas. Cherry is a deep, saturated red with a hint of blue, so it looks rich rather than orange. It is a classic choice for a winter formal or a black-tie wedding. Dark Hunter Green is a forest-toned jewel shade that reads elegant and grown-up, and the stones glint against it like frost. Because the bodice is already embellished, keep accessories simple. Choose earrings in the same metal as your colorway, silver tones with Silver and Dark Hunter Green, gold tones with Gold and Cherry, and skip the necklace so the strapless neckline stays clean. A metallic clutch and strappy sandals finish the look. Hair worn up or in a sleek low knot lets both the hot-stone bodice and the lace-up back show. If you prefer hair down, sweep it over one shoulder so the lacing still peeks through. If you want a second opinion on color, send us a photo in natural light and a stylist will suggest the shade that suits you best. Keep in mind that metallic satin shifts with the light, so Silver and Gold can look brighter in a ballroom and softer in daylight. Cherry and Dark Hunter Green are steadier, holding the same rich tone indoors and out. If you are coordinating with a date or a group, tell us the colors involved and we will suggest a shade that photographs well alongside them.
