Description
About the Dress: Faviana S10831
The Faviana S10831 is a floor-length sequin a-line gown built for prom, formal events, and gala nights. It is covered in a dense, uniform sequin surface from the bodice to the hem — the kind of dress that catches the light from every angle. The fitted v-neck bodice transitions into a full flared skirt, and a hidden pocket is built into the right side of the skirt. This is a full-length gown offered in Light Lavender Purple and Hot Pink.
Fit & Silhouette
Faviana S10831 follows a true a-line silhouette. The bodice is fitted through the bust and waist, and the skirt flares out from the natural waist into a full, sweeping floor-length hem. This is not a mermaid shape — the flare begins at the waist, not the knee. Spaghetti straps sit on the shoulders and anchor the deep v-neckline. The fit is structured and close through the bodice, while the skirt gives you room to move comfortably. Faviana S10831 runs true to size; use Faviana's size chart for measurements if you are between sizes.
Fabric & Detail
The entire exterior of Faviana S10831 is covered in sequins from the neckline to the floor. The sequin application is dense and uniform — there are no plain or matte breaks in the surface. The sequins sit on a knit base that gives the gown a slight stretch, which helps the bodice fit smoothly. The back of the gown is fully open, with crossing lace-up straps that tie at the mid-lower back — this detail creates both the crisscross-back silhouette and the adjustable fit. A functional pocket is set into the right side seam of the skirt.
Key Features
- Full sequin coverage from neckline to hem
- A-line silhouette with fitted bodice and flared floor-length skirt
- Deep v-neckline with spaghetti straps
- Fully open back with crisscross lace-up tie detail
- Hidden side pocket in the skirt
- Available in Light Lavender Purple and Hot Pink

Style & Occasion
Faviana S10831 is a strong choice for prom, formal dances, evening galas, and debut celebrations. The full sequin surface and open crisscross back give it a high-impact look that reads clearly as a formal occasion gown. Light Lavender Purple photographs beautifully under event lighting, and Hot Pink makes an equally bold statement. For shoes, a strappy heeled sandal or pointed-toe pump works well with the v-neck and open back. Keep jewelry minimal — small drop earrings or a simple ear cuff let the sequins carry the look. The pocket makes this a practical choice for a long night on your feet.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Faviana S10831 is an a-line silhouette, which is one of the most broadly flattering shapes you can choose for a formal gown. Here is how it works across different body types and what to keep in mind when ordering.
A-line basics: The bodice is fitted from the bust through the natural waist, and then the skirt flares out evenly from the waist down to the floor. That shape creates a defined waist while giving the lower body room to breathe. It does not hug the hips or thighs the way a fitted or mermaid gown would.
If you are fuller through the hips or thighs: The a-line skirt balances proportions naturally. The flare from the waist down skims over the hips rather than following them closely, so this is often a comfortable and flattering fit for curvier body types.
If you are straighter through the waist and hips: The fitted bodice and full skirt combination creates the appearance of a waist. The sequin surface also adds visual texture, which can help create the impression of more shape. The v-neckline elongates the neckline and draws the eye upward.
If you are petite: Floor-length a-line gowns can work well for petite frames, especially with a heeled shoe. Because the flare begins at the natural waist rather than the knee, the silhouette stays balanced even on a shorter frame. The spaghetti straps keep the neckline light rather than adding bulk at the shoulder.
If you are tall: The floor-length hem and open back are excellent details on a taller frame. The full skirt has enough volume to feel proportional, and the sequin surface makes an impact at full height.
Sizing: Faviana S10831 runs true to size. Measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare them directly against Faviana's size chart before ordering. If you are between sizes, size up — the bodice is fitted and a size up is easier to take in than a size down is to let out. The crisscross lace-up back offers some adjustability once you are in the dress, but it is not a substitute for ordering the right size.
Built-in support: The bodice of this gown has structure from the fitted lining and the spaghetti straps, but there are no built-in cups or boning. If you want additional bust support, a sticky bra or adhesive cups are the most practical option given the open back and v-neckline. A traditional bra strap will be visible.
The Faviana S10831 is a fully sequined gown, so the accessories you pick should complement the fabric without competing with it. Here is a breakdown by category.
Shoes: A strappy heeled sandal is the most popular pairing for this silhouette. A thin metallic strap in gold, silver, or clear works well because it stays visually light and does not fight the sequin surface. If you prefer a closed shoe, a pointed-toe pump in a nude or metallic finish is another clean option. Platform heels also work if you want added height — just make sure the strap is minimal. Chunky block heels tend to feel visually heavy against a floor-length sequin hem, so they are generally not the best fit for this dress.
Jewelry: Because the entire gown is covered in sequins, less is more. The neckline is a deep v-neck with spaghetti straps, which means a necklace is not needed — and often gets lost in the sequin texture anyway. Small drop earrings, a simple ear cuff, or a delicate stud are the cleanest choices. If you want to make more of a statement, a longer pendant earring works well with the v-neck opening. Skip the statement necklace; the open v-neck and sequin bodice together already create a strong focal point.
Bag: A small beaded or metallic clutch is the natural pairing for a gown like this. Keep it compact. The dress already has a hidden side pocket — so for a prom or gala night, you may not need a bag at all if you just need to carry your phone and a card.
Hair and hair accessories: The fully open back is one of the standout features of the Faviana S10831. An updo — a high bun, a chignon, or a sleek twisted style — shows the open back and crisscross lace-up detail to full effect. If you prefer your hair down, a half-up style still exposes the back. Hair pins in gold or silver tones tie in naturally with a metallic shoe or clutch.
Wrap or cover-up: If you want the option to cover up for part of the evening, a lightweight chiffon wrap in a coordinating neutral keeps the formality level consistent without adding bulk over the sequins.
Faviana S10831 ships in 7 to 12 business days as standard. Rush shipping options are available if your event date is coming up quickly — contact us before ordering and we can confirm what is possible based on current stock.
Marlas Fashions ships from warehouses in Los Angeles and New York. Canadian customers are fulfilled from our Toronto location, with no duties charged on Canadian orders. We also ship internationally with full tracking on every order.
If you have a specific event date, mention it when you reach out and we will help you figure out the fastest realistic option. It is always worth confirming availability on your color and size before placing the order, especially as prom and formal event seasons get busy. Every Faviana S10831 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 S10831, our team can talk you through the size chart against your own measurements before you order.
Marlas Fashions accepts returns on Faviana S10831 for store credit, exchange, or a refund with a 30% restocking fee. Store credit never expires, so you can use it toward another dress or any other item in the store whenever you are ready.
If you are ordering for a specific event and are not sure about fit, ordering a couple of weeks early gives you time to try it on at home before your final alterations window. Alterations are common on formal gowns — even when the size is right, a small hem or strap adjustment makes a meaningful difference in how the dress sits.
For any questions about your specific order or return situation, reach out to the team before or after your purchase and we can walk you through the options. Steaming on low from the inside is the safest way to release travel creases from the Faviana S10831 without touching the embellishment. Order the Faviana S10831 early in your event season - popular colorways sell through fastest, and early orders leave time for alterations.
A lot of sequin prom gowns use sequin panels or sequin trim alongside a plain fabric base. The Faviana S10831 has full sequin coverage from the neckline to the floor — there is no break in the surface, no contrast fabric, and no plain sections. The result is a gown that reflects light continuously across the entire silhouette rather than in patches.
The other distinguishing feature is the back construction. Most a-line gowns have a zipper or a simple hook-and-eye closure. The S10831 has a fully open back with crossing lace-up straps that tie at the mid-lower back. This creates a crisscross detail that is visible from behind — it is a design element, not just a fastening. Combined with the open back, it makes the rear view of this gown as interesting as the front.
Finally, the hidden pocket in the right side seam of the skirt is a practical addition that is less common in sequin gowns at this price point. For a long event night, having somewhere to put your phone without carrying a bag is a genuine advantage.
The back of Faviana S10831 is fully open — meaning the entire back is exposed from the top of the gown down to approximately the mid-lower back, where the crisscross lace-up straps meet and tie. There is no zipper and no hook-and-eye closure on this gown.
The lace-up tie at the back provides some adjustability. Once you are in the dress, the straps can be tightened or loosened to fine-tune the fit through the bodice. This makes it easier to accommodate small differences between your measurements and the standard size, but it is not a large-scale fit correction — ordering the right size is still the most important step.
Because the back is open and the closure is a tie, a traditional bra is not compatible with this gown. Adhesive cups or a sticky bra are the practical alternatives if you want additional bust support. Keep the Faviana S10831 on a padded hanger inside its garment bag between fittings to protect the shape of the bodice.
Yes — the Faviana S10831 is available in both Light Lavender Purple and Hot Pink, which gives a group some built-in options for coordination. A court or damas group can wear the same style in matching colors for a unified look, or mix the two available colors for a complementary palette.
For debut celebrations, the a-line silhouette and sequin surface translate well to a coordinated court in a shared colorway. If you are coordinating a group and need multiple units in the same color and size, contact us before ordering to confirm stock availability across the group. Larger group orders sometimes benefit from early ordering, particularly in popular sizes and colors, to avoid fulfillment gaps close to the event date. Every Faviana S10831 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 S10831, our team can talk you through the size chart against your own measurements before you order.
Faviana S10831 is a strong fit for prom, formal dances, evening galas, and debut events. The full sequin coverage, floor-length a-line silhouette, and open crisscross back give it an unmistakably formal profile — this is a dress built for high-impact evenings, not casual or semi-formal settings.
For sweet-16 celebrations that lean formal and glamorous, this gown works well. It is also suitable for black-tie adjacent events where the expectation is a full-length formal gown.
This gown works well as a wedding guest choice, particularly for evening or black-tie receptions where a full-length formal gown is appropriate. The deep v-neck and fully open back give it a bold, fashion-forward feel that suits evening and black-tie wedding receptions best. If you are looking for something to wear to a formal wedding as a guest, we would recommend a different style from the collection.
For any event where the dress code is formal or black-tie and you want sequins from neckline to floor, the Faviana S10831 is a direct answer to that requirement.
