Colette CL6221: Fit-and-Flare Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: Beaded bow accent at the plunging V-neckline
- Silhouette: Sleek fit-and-flare with dramatic sweep train
- "Wow" Detail: Boned corset bodice in sculpting stretch Mikado
Polished, bold, unforgettable—CL6221 pairs a clean, architectural fit-and-flare with a jeweled bow that spotlights the neckline. Stretch Mikado smooths every curve while the corseted bodice and fluid flare create red-carpet confidence.
Stylist's Tip
For a crisp neckline and secure lift, anchor the V points with fashion tape after tightening the bodice at the ribcage. Steam Mikado from the inside on low heat to avoid shine, and choose minimal jewelry so the beaded bow remains the focal point.

Helpful Information
How do tailors stabilize a deep V-neck in Mikado without adding bulk?
They’ll apply clear stay tape along the neckline seam and add tiny bar tacks at the V point. This prevents spreading while keeping the edge crisp; a hidden elastic stay inside the neckline provides extra hold without visible stitching.
Best hem technique for stretch Mikado with a long train?
Stabilize the hem allowance with lightweight tricot tape, then use a narrow blind or faced hem. Press from the wrong side with a press cloth and let the fabric cool flat—this preserves the Mikado’s polished finish and prevents shine lines.
