Colette CL8230: A-Line Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: Cracked-ice glitter and sequins for allover shine
- Silhouette: Airy A-line skirt with a high, leg-lengthening slit
- "Wow" Detail: Plunging V-neckline with lace-up back and dainty straps
Light-catching from every angle, CL8230 blends a sculpted V-neck bodice with cracked-ice sparkle and a floaty A-line skirt. A daring slit adds runway movement while the lace-up back customizes your fit for dance-all-night confidence.
Stylist's Tip
Cracked-ice fabrics shine brightest with gentle care—steam from the inside on low and avoid pressing the glitter face. Anchor the V with fashion tape and tighten the lace-up starting at the waist for support without flattening the bust.

Helpful Information
How should cracked-ice sequin fabric be hemmed without shedding or stiff edges?
Mark the length in event heels, then remove glitter/sequins only within the seam allowance. Stabilize the hem with lightweight tricot tape and finish with a narrow rolled or faced hem; re-tack a few sequins across the seam to keep the sparkle continuous.
What’s the best way to keep a high slit comfortable and photo-safe?
Ask your tailor for a discreet tack at mid-thigh on the overlap, and use body tape on the lining edge for security. Consider nude body shorts; they prevent cling and ensure confident movement on the dance floor.
