Colette CL 5101: Glitter Ball Gown Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: Dazzling novelty glitter over cracked ice tulle
- Silhouette: Classic ball gown with structured, beaded corset bodice
- "Wow" Detail: Lace-up back for custom cinch and hourglass definition
Make every step shimmer. This strapless sweetheart ball gown floods the room with glittering light while the beaded corset shapes, supports, and sets a red-carpet tone from first glance.
Stylist's Tip
For the smoothest corset finish, start lacing from the top and bottom simultaneously, meeting at the waist for maximum snatch. Pair with a seamless longline bra or molded cups; a light crinoline can add extra skirt drama without weight.

Helpful Information
How do I minimize glitter transfer on cracked ice tulle?
Expect some surface glitter release during the first try-on. Before your event, give the skirt a gentle shake outdoors, then mist lightly with alcohol-free hairspray from 12–16 inches away. Let it dry fully. This seals loose particles without dulling the finish—avoid heat, steam, or heavy pressing directly on glitter.
What’s the best way to lace the corset for support and comfort?
Begin with even tension, cross each lace through the next set of loops, and tighten in small increments from top and bottom toward the waist. Create “bunny ear” loops at the smallest point of your waist to fine-tune throughout the night. Aim for snug—but you should be able to take a deep breath comfortably and sit without pinching.
