Description
About the Dress: Faviana S10861
Faviana S10861 is a long, fully-sequined fitted gown in deep eggplant purple. The gown is built on a stretch-jersey base that contours the body from bust to hem, giving it a sculpted, body-hugging silhouette. It is completely covered in sequins from neckline to floor — no bare panels, no contrast trim — making the embellishment the defining feature of the dress.
The sweetheart neckline has a clear center dip between the cups, framed by short sleeves that sit at the top of the arm. The back is fully covered in sequin fabric and closes with a hidden zipper, keeping the covered, modest back in line with the formal dress code occasions this gown suits best.
Fit & Silhouette
Faviana S10861 is cut fitted throughout — the stretch-jersey fabric hugs the bust, pulls in at the waist, and follows the hips all the way to the hem. There is no flare, no slit, and no skirt volume. The silhouette is straight and body-contouring, which is exactly what the sleek-and-sexy profile delivers in a full-length gown.
The short sleeves add a modest touch without softening the overall look. Faviana sizes S10861 in standard sizes 0 through 16. If you are between sizes, Faviana typically runs true to size in their stretch-jersey styles, but the sequin surface has a little less give than a plain jersey, so sizing up one is a reasonable option for a more comfortable fit through the hips.
Fabric & Detail
The base of Faviana S10861 is stretch jersey — the same fabric that gives Faviana's fitted gowns their signature body-conscious drape. The sequin layer covers the entire gown, top to bottom, so every angle catches the light. The sequins are consistent in scale and coverage; there are no cutouts, no mesh inserts, and no bare zones. The result is a uniformly luminous surface in a rich eggplant purple.
The back closes with a zipper concealed beneath the sequin fabric. The fabric weight and stretch content make this gown manageable to move in despite the full-length fitted cut.
Key Features
- Sweetheart neckline with a defined center dip
- Short sleeves framing the shoulder
- Fully-beaded sequin surface, head to toe
- Stretch-jersey base for body-contouring fit
- High-back construction — fully covered back
- Hidden back zipper closure
- No slit, no train, floor-length hem
- Available in eggplant purple, sizes 0–16
Style & Occasion
Faviana S10861 is the kind of gown you wear when the event calls for real impact. The full sequin coverage in deep eggplant purple reads formal and polished at black-tie events, galas, and evening receptions. The covered back and short sleeves make it a strong choice for mothers of the bride or groom who want glamour without exposure, and it works equally well for wedding receptions and formal wedding-guest occasions where a long gown is appropriate.
For prom, the fitted silhouette and full-length sequin look delivers exactly the drama that works on a ballroom floor. The covered back also makes it suitable for formal events, evening occasions, holiday galas, and New Year's Eve celebrations where sequins are always the right call.
Pair with strappy metallic heels and minimal jewelry — the sequins carry the look. A simple clutch in gold or silver keeps the accessories from competing with the dress. The eggplant purple colorway pairs well with gold, silver, or champagne accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions
Faviana S10861 is a fully-sequined stretch-jersey gown, and caring for it correctly keeps it looking event-ready for years. Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended for any fully-sequined gown. The sequin layer is adhered to the stretch-jersey base, and machine washing — even on a delicate cycle — can loosen sequins, snag the surface, or distort the jersey's stretch. If the gown picks up a small spot between wearings, blot gently with a damp cloth and let it air dry flat. Do not rub the sequin surface in one direction; sequins sit in two-directional nap and rubbing in the wrong direction can flip and break them. Storage: Hang Faviana S10861 on a wide, padded hanger — not a wire hanger. Wire hangers can stretch the jersey at the shoulder. Store it in a breathable garment bag, not a plastic dry-cleaning bag. Plastic traps moisture, which can dull sequins or cause the jersey base to develop an odor over time. Keep it away from direct sunlight; deep eggplant purple can fade if left in a bright window for extended periods. If you are storing the gown for a longer period — for example, after prom season or after a winter gala — make sure it is fully dry-cleaned before storage. Storing a gown with body oils or product residue on it allows those compounds to set into the fabric over months. Traveling: If you are flying or driving to your event, pack Faviana S10861 in a dedicated garment bag. For air travel, carry-on is ideal if your airline allows it. If you have to check it, fold the gown as loosely as possible — lay it flat across the garment bag width rather than accordion-folding it tightly. Sequin gowns crease less than chiffon, but the jersey base can hold fold lines if compressed for a long flight. Once you arrive at your destination, hang the gown immediately. Light wrinkles in the jersey will often drop out after hanging overnight. If you need to speed up the process, a handheld garment steamer works on the jersey sections — hold it several inches away and use slow passes. Do not steam directly onto the sequin surface; the heat can dull or warp sequin faces. Never iron a sequin gown directly. With the right care routine, Faviana S10861 is a gown that holds up beautifully for multiple wearings and keeps its sequin surface looking sharp.
Faviana S10861 is built for high-formality occasions. The combination of full-length fitted silhouette, floor-to-ceiling sequin coverage, and deep eggplant purple makes it one of the more dressed-up options in this category — and that is exactly what the following occasions call for. Prom: This gown is a strong prom pick. The fully-beaded sequin surface, fitted long silhouette, and sweetheart neckline hit every note that works on a prom ballroom floor. The eggplant purple is distinctive enough to stand out without being uncommon, which matters in a room full of long gowns. The covered back and short sleeves mean it also suits venues and schools with dress code requirements around back exposure. Black-tie and formal galas: S10861 is genuinely black-tie appropriate. The full sequin coverage, clean fitted silhouette, and concealed zipper back read polished rather than party-forward. If you are attending a charity gala, an awards dinner, or a corporate formal, this gown holds its own. Wedding guest and wedding reception: The covered back is the key detail that makes S10861 viable as a wedding-guest gown. The long fitted silhouette and formal-weight sequin make it appropriate for black-tie or formal wedding dress codes. Mother of the bride or groom: The short sleeves and high covered back make S10861 a genuinely thoughtful pick for a mother of the bride or groom who wants glamour without exposure. The fitted silhouette reads sophisticated, not costumey. Holiday parties and New Year's Eve: Sequins are the universal fabric for holiday dressing, and eggplant purple is a strong alternative to the typical red or black at holiday events. The long length elevates this above cocktail-party territory and makes it right for evening-length holiday galas or a formal New Year's Eve celebration. Formal evening events: Any invitation that specifies formal, black-tie optional, or evening dress code is a fit for S10861. It is a gown that meets the dress code and then some. Venue guidance: This gown is suited to indoor formal venues — hotel ballrooms, banquet halls, theaters, and upscale event spaces. The floor-length fitted hem and sequin surface are not designed for outdoor events on grass or rough surfaces.
Because Faviana S10861 is fully covered in sequins from neckline to hem, the accessories job is to complement without competing. Shoes: Strappy metallic heels are the most versatile choice — gold, silver, or champagne all work with eggplant purple. A pointed-toe stiletto keeps the line of the fitted silhouette clean and elongates the leg. If you want more comfort for a long event, a block-heeled sandal in metallic leather gives you stability without interrupting the look. Avoid a shoe with heavy embellishment of its own — the dress is already doing a lot of visual work. Jewelry: Minimal is the right direction. The sequin surface reflects light continuously, so stacking jewelry competes rather than adds. A simple pair of small drop earrings in gold or silver, or a single statement earring on each side, is enough. Skip the necklace — the sweetheart neckline frames the collarbone cleanly, and a necklace crowds that space. If you want a wrist piece, a thin metallic cuff or a simple bracelet works. Bag: A small metallic clutch — gold, silver, or gunmetal — reads formal and keeps the accessory palette tight. Avoid large bags or shoulder bags, which interrupt the line of the fitted gown. Hair: The short sleeves and sweetheart neckline frame the shoulder and collarbone well. An updo or half-up style that clears the neckline shows the neckline to its best advantage.
The fitted silhouette of Faviana S10861 works best when the stretch-jersey base has fabric to work with — the gown contours to the body, so what it flatters most is a figure where the waist is proportionally smaller than the bust and hips. Hourglass figures: This silhouette was designed around this shape. The stretch jersey follows the bust-waist-hip ratio and the sequin surface catches light evenly across the contoured areas. Athletic or straight figures: The body-contouring cut can create the appearance of curve through the waist and hips even when the natural silhouette is straighter. The fitted nature of the gown reads as structured, not loose, which works well for athletic frames. Pear or hip-forward figures: The even sequin coverage means there is no contrast between upper and lower body — the eye reads the dress as one continuous surface rather than dividing at the waist. This is a flattering quality for hip-forward figures. Sizing to your hip measurement and having the waist taken in slightly by a tailor is a clean way to dial in the fit. Bust-forward figures: The sweetheart neckline is one of the most flattering necklines for a fuller bust — it frames and lifts without exposing. The short sleeves add a modest upper arm coverage that many customers appreciate.
Faviana S10861 ships from Marlas Fashions' warehouse locations in Los Angeles and New York, with a Toronto warehouse serving Canadian customers. Standard delivery takes 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is confirmed and the gown is pulled from stock. If your event is coming up quickly, rush shipping options are available at checkout. Selecting rush shipping shortens the delivery window — the exact timeframe depends on your location and the shipping carrier's service level you select. For US customers, there are no import duties. For Canadian customers shipping from the Toronto warehouse, there are also no duties charged. International orders outside the US and Canada ship from the US warehouse locations with tracked international shipping; import duty rules vary by country, so check your local customs rules if you are ordering internationally. All orders ship with tracking so you can follow the package from warehouse to your door. If you have a specific event date and are unsure whether standard shipping gets the dress to you in time, reach out to the Marlas Fashions team before you order — they can confirm stock availability and expected ship dates based on your location. Call or text our Toronto boutique at 416-536-2956 and our stylists will help you find your perfect dress.
Marlas Fashions offers three options when a dress does not work out: store credit, an exchange for a different size or style, or a refund minus a 30% restocking fee. Store credit never expires, which is worth noting if you are ordering ahead of an event and want the flexibility to come back later. Exchanges are the most common outcome when sizing is the issue — the team can help confirm what size to exchange into based on your measurements. For returns or exchanges to be processed, the dress needs to be in its original, unworn condition with tags attached. Gowns that have been altered, steamed, or worn to an event cannot be returned. Because Faviana S10861 is a fitted gown, some customers like the idea of ordering it with enough lead time to try it on at home before the event date — that way, if the fit is off, there is time to exchange before the deadline. Ordering 4 to 6 weeks ahead of your event gives you comfortable runway for a try-on and exchange if needed. If you have specific questions about your order's return window or want to initiate a return or exchange, contact the Marlas Fashions team directly through the contact options on the site.
A lot of long sequin gowns use sequin as an accent — sequin bodice with a plain skirt, sequin trim on a chiffon base, or sequin panels at the front only. Faviana S10861 is different because the sequin coverage is total. There is no bare panel anywhere on the gown, front, back, or sides. The result is a consistent, all-over light-catching surface that reads richer and more formal than a partially-sequined gown. The stretch-jersey base is the second differentiator. A lot of fully-sequined gowns are built on chiffon or tulle, which gives them volume and flow. The jersey base here means the sequin layer is body-contouring rather than flowing — the gown moves with the body instead of away from it. That is a specific and deliberate silhouette that not every customer wants, but for customers who want a sleek fitted look rather than a dramatic skirt, this construction is exactly right. The short sleeves and covered high back are the third point of difference. Most fitted sequin gowns in this category are strapless or have low backs. S10861 offers the fully-covered option — which broadens who can wear it and where.
Faviana S10861 closes at the back with a hidden zipper. The zipper runs the length of the back and is concealed beneath the sequin fabric, so it is not visible from the outside — the back reads as a continuous sequin surface. The zipper closure does not have the same adjustment range as a corset or lace-up back. It zips to a fixed closure, so the fit at the waist and hips is determined by your measurements relative to the size you ordered. This is why getting the size right before ordering matters more with a zipper-back fitted gown than with a lace-up style. If you are between sizes — for example, your waist is a size 4 and your hips are a size 6 — the standard guidance for a fitted zipper-back gown is to size to the larger measurement and have the smaller area taken in by a seamstress. Alterations on a sequin jersey gown are possible but require a seamstress experienced with sequin fabrics, as the sequin layer needs to be carefully managed at any seam edge. The high-back construction means the covered back sits at the upper back, giving full coverage. The zipper holds that structure in place throughout the night without the need for adjustment or tying. Once it is on and zipped, the jersey fabric keeps the gown in position through the stretch and recovery of the base material.
