Portia and Scarlett XO105 Prom Dress

The double thin straps work in tandem with the structured bodice to provide excellent support while maintaining a delicate, elegant appearance. The straps distribute weight evenly across both shoulders, which is actually more secure than single-strap or strapless designs. The plunging sweetheart neckline is carefully engineered with internal structure and boning that keeps the neckline positioned correctly without gaping or shifting. The crystal embellishments along the neckline edge also serve a functional purpose—they add subtle weight that helps keep the fabric in place. For additional security and peace of mind, many wearers use fashion tape along the neckline, though most find the built-in structure more than adequate.

Ruching is universally flattering because it creates texture and dimension that naturally smooths and contours the midsection regardless of body type. The placement on this gown is particularly strategic—the ruching sits at the natural waistline and extends slightly onto the hips, which creates an hourglass effect while providing gentle compression that's comfortable for extended wear. Whether you're petite, curvy, athletic, or plus-size, the ruching adapts to your shape and enhances your natural proportions. During our fit verification process, our stylists ensure the ruching sits at the most flattering position on your specific frame, which helps us recommend the optimal size for your measurements.
