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.
LONG PROM DRESS
Long prom dresses are great formal gowns for a variety of formal events: red carpet, wedding guests, pageant dresses, or even semi formals. Check out the party dresses at ALYCE Paris - you can't go wrong with our designer dresses.
OPEN BACK/BACKLESS
Backless or open back dresses are exposed, paired most often with adjustable or strappy up tie backs. A backless formal evening dress is sure to guarantee a dramatic exit.
PLUS SIZE
People with plus size frames (AKA curvy bodies) can have a variety of body shapes, too. This is why ALYCE Paris has been making plus size prom dresses from 000 up to size 32 for over fifty years. ALYCE Paris inclusive collection of plus size prom gowns and plus size mother of the bride dress styles are offered in an array of plus sizes to accommodate all people and special occasions - from the red carpet to the dance floor.
SEMI FORMAL
For semi formal dress codes, think one step less fancy than a prom or black-tie formal gala. At most schools, homecoming is a semi formal dance, so dark suits aren't necessary - but high heels might be! Going to a wedding party? For semi formal wedding attire, your formal dress as a wedding guest might be a cocktail dress that pairs with the wedding party’s dress shirts and trendy bow ties. Cocktail dresses are often just short formal dresses in a particular style trending by color or fabric. Long dresses, short dresses - our perfect party dresses make you feel confident AND feel comfortable on the dance floor - for any body type, including plus size mother of the bride dresses!
SEQUINS
Sequin formal dresses are still one of the hottest prom dresses trends 2023! Sequin dresses were first popularized as ‘80s prom dresses, these sparkling embellishments are at every formal event again, and in an even wider range of colors for 2023 sequin prom dresses. Opt for a timeless silver, rose gold, gold, or black sequins dress. Never go wrong in a sequin gown in royal, pine, navy blue, burgundy -- or even ombre -- to shine bright like a diamond!
SLIT
Show a little leg with an eye catching high slit, open split or folded-over slit in long dresses or prom gowns. Sexy prom dresses with slits work best on long prom dresses and ball gowns. Any body type that is comfortable with a showing can wear formal dresses with heart-stopping high slits - especially a red dress with slit.
TRAIN
Extra fabric at the back hem that sweeps dramatically behind you. Trains are available in many lengths, and can easily be cut down or altered to your desired length. Trains are particularly desirable on bridal dresses.
TULLE
Channel your inner ballerina! Tulle is very sheer, light, and delicate fabric used often in long formal A-line evening dress, ethereal ball gown styles, and snowball dresses. Tulle skirts (or ‘poofy dresses’) are most associated with full skirts with stiffer netting underneath so the skirt keeps its fairy tale shape for the princess prom dress or wedding dress of your dreams. Insider pro tip: for those who don’t want such a poofy dress style look, cut out the crinoline netting under the lining so the tulle prom dress skirt loses volume.
