Colette CL8240: Scoop Neck A-Line Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: Sequin lace appliqués with accent stones over glitter lace
- Silhouette: Airy A-line tulle skirt with high slit
- "Wow" Detail: Scoop-neck corset bodice and lace-up open back
Soft, sparkly, and made to move—CL8240 pairs a cinched, scoop-neck corset with a floaty glitter-tulle A-line skirt. Sequin lace blooms across the bodice and cascades into a high slit for effortless, photo-ready drama.
Stylist's Tip
For a smooth neckline, set the lace-up tension at the waist first, then place a touch of fashion tape at the scoop corners. Steam from the inside on low to protect sequins, and choose minimal jewelry so the intricate appliqué shines.

Helpful Information
How do I alter a sequin-appliqué bodice without disrupting the pattern?
Pin at the side seams only, remove sequins within the new seam allowance, then stitch with a microtex needle. Hand-tack a few motifs back over the seam so the floral design reads continuous across the waist and bust.
What’s the best way to prevent static cling in a glitter-tulle A-line?
Use an antistatic tricot slip or lightly mist the lining—not the tulle—with antistatic spray. Let dry fully, then fluff the skirt by hand to restore volume before photos.
