Colette CL6171: Fit-and-Flare Off-the-Shoulder Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: Three beaded, draped off-the-shoulder straps with embellished lace bodice
- Silhouette: Sleek fit-and-flare skirt with thigh-high slit
- "Wow" Detail: Corset bodice with scoop neckline and lace-up back
Where romance meets runway. CL6171 sculpts your shape with a corset bodice and sweepy stretch jersey, then sets it aglow with corded lace appliqué and sparkling, triple draped off-the-shoulder straps. The slit adds effortless, camera-ready movement.
Stylist's Tip
Let the neckline shine: choose delicate studs and skip necklaces that could snag the beadwork. For secure wear, anchor the off-shoulder drapes with a dot of fashion tape at the upper arm and lace the back from the waist upward to fine-tune lift without compressing.

Helpful Information
How can I keep off-the-shoulder drapes in place while dancing?
Set the bodice snug at the ribcage, then use small dots of skin-safe fashion tape beneath each drape where it meets the upper arm. A tailor can add hidden thread loops to clip onto a thin elastic armband for extra security that won’t show in photos.
What’s the best alteration method for stretch jersey with beadwork and a front slit?
Hem the lining and shell separately; stabilize the slit with lightweight tricot tape so it doesn’t ripple. When shortening near beadwork, remove beads along the hemline, stitch, then reapply beads by hand to keep the finish clean and flexible.
