Don’t limit yourself to a little black dress when our ALYCE Paris long or short women’s dresses come in every hue.
FIT AND FLARE
People who want to show off their ever pretty figure without committing to the dramatic mermaid silhouettes may consider an elegant fit-and-flare formal evening dress as an alternative since it flatters many different body types. It still hugs your body through the bust and waist, while being a little more forgiving through the hips, bottom, and thighs. The skirt flares out mid-thigh, giving you plenty of freedom to walk, sit, and dance as your heart desires, which is why fit n’ flare prom dresses are among the most popular long and short evening gowns.
LACE
Gowns with lace are considered a timeless, feminine fabric used in the world of special occasions or as lace wedding dresses because there are so many ways to wear it. Lace formal dresses look stunning with both chunky beading as well as light and ethereal sparkle for long and short prom dresses. Lace is a delicate fabric due to its see-through and intricately embroidered patterns; if thick enough, lace’s structure will hide all your body flaws and sins. Soft, stretchy lace is used for long or short lace body con styles and homecoming dresses. ALYCE Paris has the perfect lace prom dresses.
MIKADO SATIN
Mikado is a classic satin fabric that is elegant and strong, so it stands on its own (independent like you!). Being a grand fabric, mikado satin often doesn’t need any beading or sparkling embellishments to make it stand out since it has a natural subtle sheen due to the weave. Mikado satin is best on satin prom dresses while still being sleek and modern for off the shoulder dress styles or simple prom dresses.
