Frequently Asked Questions

Can I try Portia and Scarlett PS26732 at home and return it if it doesn't fit or I change my mind?

Yes, Marlas Fashions accepts returns on PS26732. The return policy works like this: you can return the dress for store credit that never expires, make an exchange for a different size or style, or request a refund with a 30% restocking fee deducted. The store credit option has no expiry attached to it, so if you're not ready to pick a replacement right away, you don't lose the value. To qualify for a return, the dress needs to come back in the same condition it arrived in — unworn, tags attached, no alterations made. This matters especially for a structured corset dress like PS26732, because the boning and the 3D floral appliqués can be affected if the dress has been worn or if any of the flowers have been snagged or pulled. Inspect the dress carefully when it arrives, try it on at home before your event date, and don't remove any tags until you're certain you're keeping it. If the dress arrives with any kind of issue — a manufacturing defect, damage in shipping, something that doesn't look right — contact the team immediately with photos. That's handled separately from a standard return and typically resolved much faster. For sizing specifically, if you're between sizes or unsure whether your measurements put you closer to one size or another, the safer bet with a fitted boned corset style is to size up and have the bodice taken in by a local tailor. Taking a corset bodice in is straightforward for most alterations shops. Letting it out is harder, especially through the boning panel, so err on the side of more room rather than less. If you want to talk through sizing or the return process before you order, reach out to the Marlas concierge team — text +1 416-536-2956 or WhatsApp +1 213-868-3131 — and they can walk you through your options.

How fast does Portia and Scarlett PS26732 ship, and where does it ship from?

Portia and Scarlett PS26732 ships from Marlas Fashions' warehouse locations in Los Angeles and New York on the US side, and from Toronto for Canadian orders. Standard delivery runs 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is confirmed. Rush shipping is available if you need the dress faster — the turnaround depends on stock status at the time you order, so it's worth asking before you check out. For US and Canadian customers, there are no duties or surprise fees on delivery — what you pay at checkout is what you pay total. International orders ship worldwide with full tracking, so you always know where your package is. If you have a specific event date, that's the most important piece of information to share with the team before you order. Marlas Fashions has been an authorized retailer for over 40 years and every dress is inspected before it goes out, so you're not getting something pulled from a shelf without a quality check. The inspection adds a small amount of time, but it means the dress arrives the way it's supposed to look. If you're ordering close to your event date, the fastest path is to reach out directly before placing the order so the team can confirm stock location and the realistic ship timeline for your specific address. Rush options vary by how far the dress needs to travel and which warehouse has it in your size. Don't assume standard timing if your event is within three weeks — check first and get a confirmed estimate so there are no surprises. The team can also advise whether a particular colorway or size is available for faster dispatch from the closest warehouse to you. Every Portia and Scarlett PS26732 that leaves our warehouse is inspected by hand before shipping, so the beadwork, seams, and closures arrive exactly as the designer intended.

What makes PS26732 different from other short floral dresses I'm seeing for homecoming?

The biggest difference with Portia and Scarlett PS26732 is that the flowers are three-dimensional — they sit physically off the surface of the dress rather than being printed or embroidered flat onto the fabric. Each appliqué has real depth, and the beading and rhinestone detail woven through them catches light the way flat embellishment simply doesn't. You're not looking at a pattern; you're looking at a textured surface that changes as you move. The second thing that sets it apart is the construction. The corset bodice has actual vertical boning channels — visible in the back — which means it holds its shape without straps and doesn't require a complicated strapless bra situation. A lot of short party dresses with a strapless look are just elasticated at the top. This one is genuinely structured, so it stays put on the dance floor. The open back adds a third dimension to the design. From the front, it reads as a classic strapless sweetheart silhouette. From the back, the entire back from the neckline to the waist is open, held at the top by only a narrow ribbon halter tie. That contrast — structured front, bare back — is the kind of detail that reads well in photos and tends to be the thing people notice.

How does the back closure work on PS26732, and can it be adjusted for fit?

The back of Portia and Scarlett PS26732 is almost entirely open — the full back from the neckline to the waist is bare. The only closure is a narrow halter-style ribbon tie at the nape of the neck, which sits at the very top and holds the front bodice in position. That ribbon can be tied looser or tighter, but it's a finishing tie, not a primary fit mechanism. The real fit adjustment happens through the boned corset bodice itself. The bodice is structured with vertical boning channels and is meant to be sized to your measurements at checkout rather than cinched or loosened after the fact. This is why getting the size right before you order matters — if you're between sizes, size up and have the bodice altered rather than trying to force a smaller size. Because the back is open rather than laced or zipped, there's no back closure to adjust once you're wearing it. The dress goes on over the head or steps up from the bottom depending on the skirt fit, and the bodice needs to sit at your natural bust without gaping. If you're unsure whether your measurements work for a specific size, share your bust, waist, and hip measurements with the Marlas team before ordering and they can advise on the best size for your frame.

Can my whole homecoming court or damas group wear PS26732 in different colors?

Portia and Scarlett PS26732 is available in multiple colors beyond the pink shown in the product photos. If you're coordinating a homecoming court, a group of friends, or a damas lineup, having everyone in the same style in different colorways is a strong look — the 3D floral detail and open-back silhouette read as a cohesive unit from a distance while each person wears their own color. For group orders, the most important step is to confirm which colorways are available in which sizes before anyone places their individual order. Stock levels vary across the size range and by color, and a group of eight people ordering the same style in eight different sizes needs to be coordinated to avoid one person's size being backordered in their chosen color. Contact the Marlas team before placing group orders. They can pull current stock availability across the full size and color range, advise on which combinations are ready to ship versus made-to-order, and help you time the orders so the whole group receives their dresses within the same window. Ordering individually without checking first is the fastest way to end up with one person's dress arriving late.

How does PS26732 fit, and does it run true to size?

Portia and Scarlett PS26732 runs fairly true to size, but because the bodice is a boned corset structure rather than a stretchy fabric, the fit is less forgiving than a jersey or mesh dress. There's no give in the boning panel, so if your measurements put you right between two sizes, the better call is to go up and have the bodice taken in by a tailor. Measure your bust, natural waist, and hips and compare against the Portia and Scarlett size chart. The bust measurement is the most critical for this style — if your bust is on the larger end of a size range and your waist is on the smaller end, size to the bust. A bodice that's too small across the chest will create problems that can't be fixed easily; a bodice that's slightly large through the waist can be taken in cleanly. The skirt is short and fitted through the hips, so hip measurement matters too. If your hip measurement pushes you toward a larger size while your bust stays in a smaller one, use the larger size and adjust the bodice. The floral appliqués and mesh skirt don't have the same rigid fit requirements as the bodice, so there's more flexibility there. When in doubt, share your measurements with the Marlas team before ordering.

What occasions and events is PS26732 actually appropriate for?

Portia and Scarlett PS26732 is designed for homecoming, cocktail parties, semi-formal events, and after-prom. The combination of a short mini length, open back, and dense 3D floral embellishment puts it firmly in the party-dress category — it's meant to be worn to events where dressing up is expected but a floor-length formal gown would be out of place. Homecoming dances are the primary occasion this dress is styled for. The structured corset bodice and statement embellishment are exactly what works in a homecoming setting where you want to look polished but still feel comfortable dancing. Semi-formal school events, cocktail-coded parties, and after-prom gatherings are all realistic fits. The fully open back disqualifies it for wedding-guest use — the exposed back exceeds the modesty threshold for that setting. It's also not a gown-length formal or prom gown, so it won't work for black-tie events or occasions where floor-length attire is expected. Within its actual category — short statement party dresses — it's a strong and versatile choice.

What undergarments work best with a strapless open-back corset dress like PS26732?

The boned corset bodice in PS26732 provides enough internal structure that most people won't need a separate bra. The boning holds the bodice in place at the bust line, and a well-fitted corset bodice functions as its own support. That said, if you prefer adhesive cups or a low-back strapless bra for personal comfort, either option works without interfering with the dress. The open back rules out any standard bra with a visible back band. Stick-on adhesive cups that attach directly to the skin are the cleanest option if you want additional coverage. Make sure the adhesive product is skin-safe and designed for wear under clothing — the floral appliqués on the skirt are textured and dimensional, and a bra riding up against them would be uncomfortable. For bottoms, smooth seamless underwear or a low-rise thong works best with the fitted mini skirt. The skirt is short and fitted through the hips, so any visible waistband or seam will show. Because the skirt hem scallops along the floral edges, the length sits at a natural point that doesn't require shapewear underneath — the appliqués provide enough surface texture to obscure the hip line on their own.
