CORSET
Bodice with structural boning, and a lace up back, minimizing the need for alterations, for a more perfect fit! Corsets are particularly desirable on bridal, ball gown, grad or debutante dresses as they ensure a custom fit.
HALTER NECK
For a less intense high-neck look, try a halter neckline for your formal evening dress. This easy fit opens at the base of the neck and is a great way to show off your shoulders. Halter necks are a good match for wider shoulders, since halter necklines cut in from the sides coming together around the neck and fastening in back at the nape of neck.
JERSEY KNIT
Jersey knit long or short fitted formal dresses have two identities. The first is a plain and simple look with minimal embellishments; the second is a use of extra fabric in the design for draping and ruching effects since jersey is a forgiving material whose weight falls beautifully into pattern. This fabric can handle serious embellishments like overall sequins or chunky beading as the fabric literally goes with the flow of the design elements, thus giving you a fitted, sexy prom dresses look.
