Helpful Information
What makes mikado fabric a standout choice for a ballgown-style A-line?
Mikado is a heavyweight, structured silk-blend fabric that holds volume and shape exceptionally well, making it ideal for full A-line skirts that need to maintain their drama all night. Its subtle sheen also gives deep colors like navy a rich, dimensional quality that reads beautifully in photos.
How does a lace-up corset back affect sizing for this style?
The lace-up corset back allows for several inches of adjustment, giving you flexibility if you're between sizes—always size to your hips first for a full A-line. Our stylists will cross-reference all your measurements against Sherri Hill's size chart and flag any fit considerations before your order ships.
