Morilee 49221: Mikado A-Line Prom Dress
Product Overview
- Sparkle Factor: 3D hand-beaded trim framing a strapless sweetheart neckline
- Silhouette: Box-pleated A-line skirt with elegant volume
- "Wow" Detail: Hidden pockets for effortless, modern polish
Structured elegance, instantly. Luminous mikado sculpts the bodice, while crisp box pleats create a sweeping A-line—and the jeweled neckline adds just the right dose of sparkle for photos that pop.
Stylist's Tip
To keep the strapless neckline smooth, anchor the bodice with an interior waist stay and a touch of fashion tape at the outer corners. Steam mikado from the inside on low heat, and avoid overfilling pockets so the pleats stay sharp.

Helpful Information
How do I keep box pleats crisp throughout the night?
Press pleats from the inside using a press cloth and low heat, then secure each fold with light hand tacks at the waistband seam so movement won’t relax the structure. Avoid overloading pockets and hang the gown by inner loops to prevent creasing.
What hemming method works best for heavy mikado without puckering?
Request a horsehair-braid facing on the lining for body and a blind-stitched hem on the outer layer. Stabilize the hem allowance with lightweight fusible tape before stitching—this preserves the skirt’s smooth drape and architectural shape.
