A dramatic ball gown silhouette, delicate tulle layers, dimensional appliqués and sparkling beadwork come together in this green strapless prom dress. The design is made to create a memorable entrance while giving you the freedom to enjoy the rest of your event comfortably.
What makes this gown especially distinctive is its convertible two look construction. The same bodice can be styled with a shorter inner skirt or transformed into a dramatic long gown with its detachable outer train, giving you two different looks for one special occasion.
A long formal gown is beautiful for a grand entrance, but a shorter look can be much easier when it is time to walk, mingle and dance. This convertible design was created to give you both options without changing into a completely different dress.
Attach the outer train for a full length ball gown effect with generous tulle volume and a dramatic formal silhouette. It is ideal for your grand entrance, ceremony, photos and other moments when you want maximum impact.
Remove the outer train to reveal the shorter inner skirt. The lighter silhouette makes it easier to move, mingle and dance while keeping the same embellished bodice and overall design identity.
The beauty of this gown comes from the combination of structure, texture and hand finished embellishment. Its tulle foundation creates volume while the appliqués and beadwork add dimension and light catching detail across the bodice.
A clean strapless neckline creates an elegant frame for the shoulders and keeps attention on the intricate embellishment.
Dimensional appliqués and carefully placed beads add texture and sparkle instead of relying on a flat printed finish.
Multiple tulle layers create the soft volume associated with a classic ball gown while allowing the skirt to move with you.
The lace up back allows additional adjustment for a more personalized fit and helps fine tune the waist area.
Built in bra support is incorporated into the design for added convenience when styling the strapless gown.
The full skirt creates a dramatic formal profile that works beautifully for prom, gala events and other special occasions.
Creating a gown with multiple layers, a detachable train and detailed embellishment requires more than simply sewing the individual pieces together. Our design team developed the construction through draping, fitting, testing and hand finishing.
The bodice is shaped on a dress form so the neckline, waist and structure can be refined according to how the gown actually sits on the body.
The tulle is carefully prepared, laid flat and cut according to the intended grain so the different skirt layers maintain their shape and balance.
Softer tulle can be used for movement in the inner skirt while firmer layers help the outer train maintain its dramatic volume.
Appliqués, beads and dimensional decorative elements are positioned and hand sewn to follow the curves of the gown rather than appearing flat against the fabric.
The connection between the inner skirt and outer train is tested during fitting so the two pieces stay aligned and the final silhouette remains balanced while worn.
Every part of a convertible formal gown has to work together. The bodice must hold its shape, the skirt layers need to fall correctly, the detachable train must stay secure, and the embellishment needs to follow the curves of the design.
Our professional dressmakers use hands on fitting, sewing and finishing techniques during the production process. The result is a gown designed not only to look dramatic in photographs, but also to function when you actually wear it.
The full ball gown silhouette makes this style especially suited to occasions where you want a statement look, while the convertible construction gives you more freedom after the formal portion of the event.
