Description
About the Dress: Clarisse 62176
Clarisse 62176 is a fully-beaded fitted long gown built around two defining elements: an attached chiffon cape that flows from the halter neckline and a high front slit that runs the length of the skirt. The crossover halter neckline forms a deep V at the front. Dense beading and sequin embellishment cover the entire dress from neckline to hem, with no plain fabric visible on the body of the gown. The result is a look built on movement — the cape sweeps behind you as you walk and the slit lets the skirt open with every step. Available in Slate Blue and White.
Fit & Silhouette
Clarisse 62176 is cut to follow the body closely through the bust, waist, and hips — a true fitted silhouette with no volume in the skirt. The high front slit gives the gown its stride and allows full movement in what would otherwise be a column shape. The cape attaches at the halter straps and falls from the shoulders, adding width and drama from the back without touching the fitted line of the dress itself. The back is fully open, confirmed to below the waist, so the gown reads dramatically from every angle.
Fabric & Detail
The body of Clarisse 62176 is built on a mesh and net foundation that is completely covered in beading and sequin embellishment — top to bottom, bodice and skirt. The illusion panel at the torso uses sheer mesh with scattered beads to create a see-through effect against the skin, keeping the silhouette sleek while adding texture. The cape panels are chiffon, which is lighter and more fluid than the beaded body, so the cape moves independently as you walk. There is no unembellished surface on the main gown body.

Style & Occasion
Clarisse 62176 is made for high-impact occasions where the gown is the statement. It is a natural fit for prom — the cape and fully-beaded finish read well under ballroom lighting and photograph dramatically. The over-the-top embellishment and Miss Universe silhouette also make it a strong choice for pageant competition. The open back and high slit mean this gown works best for events where glamour and confidence are the goal. Slate Blue is striking under stage and event lighting. White photographs clean and bold. Pair with strappy heels and minimal jewelry — the dress provides the detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Because Clarisse 62176 is fully beaded from neckline to hem, the goal with accessories is to complement the gown without competing with it. The dress provides all the surface detail, so jewelry should stay minimal and deliberate.
For shoes, a strappy stiletto heel in metallic silver or gold is the most reliable choice — it adds height without pulling the eye away from the gown, and the open-toe or ankle-strap silhouette keeps the leg line clean when the high front slit opens. If you prefer a block heel for comfort during a long evening, choose a slim profile in a neutral or metallic tone. Avoid platforms or chunky heels — they cut the long lean line the fitted silhouette is designed to create. Pointed-toe heels in a coordinating colour (a deeper blue with the Slate Blue, a cream or ivory with the White) also work well.
For jewelry, restraint wins. The illusion bodice and sequin embellishment catch light constantly, so a simple pair of drop earrings in crystal, cubic zirconia, or fine metal is plenty. Chandelier earrings work if they are not oversized — think elegant, not theatrical. Skip the necklace entirely: the deep V neckline and the halter straps frame the collarbone naturally, and a necklace would compete with both the neckline shape and the beading at the bodice. A delicate bracelet or bangle on one wrist is optional and adds a quiet finish.
For hair, an updo or a sleek pulled-back style reads well with the open back — it lets the full open-back line show without obstruction. A deep side sweep or a low bun paired with a single crystal pin keeps things polished.
The chiffon cape moves when you walk, so avoid large structured bags, voluminous shawls, or anything that blocks its flow. A small clutch in a coordinating or metallic tone is ideal — it holds essentials without adding bulk.
If you are wearing Slate Blue: silver-toned or white-gold accessories photograph particularly well. For White: gold or rose gold hardware and warm-toned stones complement the colourway cleanly. Both colour options in Clarisse 62176 photograph well under stage and event lighting, which is worth keeping in mind when choosing accessories for a pageant or formal event.
Clarisse 62176 is cut as a true fitted gown — it follows the body closely through the bust, waist, and hips with no volume in the skirt. That means it works best when you are comfortable in form-fitting silhouettes and when the fit through those three points is accurate to your measurements.
For taller frames or athletic and lean builds, the fitted column shape and high front slit create a long, unbroken vertical line that reads very well on stage and on camera. The fully-beaded surface adds dimension without adding bulk, so the gown sits close without feeling constricting when the fit is correct.
For curvier and hourglass figures, the fitted cut follows natural curves well — the key is getting the measurements right, particularly through the hip and bust. The deep V neckline created by the crossover halter draws the eye upward and creates a strong focal point at the décolletage, which is flattering for fuller busts. The open back and illusion panel at the torso are both form-conscious details that work with curves rather than hiding them.
For petite frames, the high front slit helps elongate the leg line. We recommend pairing with the tallest heel you are comfortable walking in to maximise the effect. The cape can add visual length and presence, which helps petite wearers carry a gown with this much presence on stage or at prom.
The one consideration for all body types: because there is no stretch fabric, no ruching to adjust, and no flowing skirt to absorb fit variation, this gown requires accurate measurements. A dress that is close in size but not quite right will not sit correctly on a fully-fitted beaded gown. We recommend measuring bust, waist, and hips carefully and comparing to the Clarisse size chart before ordering.
If you are between sizes, sizing up and having the waist or bodice taken in slightly by a local tailor is the safest path — a beaded gown taken in is a straightforward alteration. Taking a beaded gown out is more complex and sometimes limited by the seam allowance.
Clarisse 62176 ships from our Los Angeles or New York warehouse depending on stock location. Standard delivery is 7 to 12 business days to US addresses. Canadian customers ship from our Toronto warehouse — no duties or import fees apply to US or Canadian orders. International orders ship worldwide with full tracking included.
Rush shipping is available if you need the dress faster than the standard window. When you place your order, rush options will appear at checkout based on your location. If you are working toward a specific event date and need to confirm whether the dress will arrive in time, reach out to us before ordering and we can check current warehouse stock and shipping lead times for your location.
All Clarisse 62176 orders ship with a tracking number. You will receive it by email as soon as the parcel leaves the warehouse. Every 62176 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the 62176, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise.
Marlas Fashions accepts returns on Clarisse 62176 as long as the dress is unworn, unaltered, and returned in its original condition with all tags attached. Returns are processed as store credit that never expires, as an exchange for a different size or style, or as a refund minus a 30% restocking fee.
Store credit is the most flexible path — it does not expire, so you can use it toward any future order with no time pressure. If you need a different size of the same gown, an exchange is straightforward: contact us when the dress arrives and we will walk you through the process.
Because Clarisse 62176 is a fully-beaded fitted gown, we strongly recommend ordering early enough to try it on at home and have time to exchange if the fit is not right. Beaded gowns in a fully fitted cut do not have the same size tolerance as dresses with ruched fabric or flowing skirts, so accurate measurements and a comfortable lead time before your event are the two best things you can do to make sure the gown works for you.
The defining feature that separates Clarisse 62176 from most fully-beaded fitted gowns is the attached chiffon cape. It originates at the halter straps and flows from the shoulders — not from the waist or hips as a detachable overskirt would. This means the cape moves completely independently of the fitted gown body as you walk, creating a trailing sweep behind you that you do not have to think about managing.
Most beaded fitted gowns are column silhouettes. The cape on Clarisse 62176 adds visible movement and volume from the back and side without changing the fitted line of the dress from the front. The illusion mesh bodice panel is a second point of distinction — rather than a solid beaded surface across the torso, the sheer foundation gives a skin-visible effect at the midriff that keeps the silhouette light and layered despite the overall density of the embellishment.
The combination of the fully open back, the high front slit, the crossover V halter neckline, and the cape means this gown has four significant design details working together — most comparable gowns feature one or two of those elements, not all four simultaneously.
Clarisse 62176 has a fully open back — there is no closure, zip, or lacing running down the back. The entire back is bare from the halter straps at the neck down to below the waist. The gown is entered by stepping into the skirt from below or by lifting it over the head, then securing the halter strap at the neckline.
Because the closure point is at the halter neck rather than the back, adjustability is limited to the neckline strap. This is typical for halter-neck gowns. If the bodice fits slightly loose through the waist, a local tailor can take in the side seams — this is a standard alteration for fitted beaded gowns. Taking in a fully-beaded halter bodice through the bust requires more precision, so if your measurements are between sizes, we recommend sizing to your bust and adjusting the waist rather than the reverse. Every 62176 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the 62176, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise.
Clarisse 62176 is designed as a statement gown and reads strongest as a solo look — the fully-beaded surface, the attached cape, and the open back all push it toward a lead or solo role rather than a coordinated group silhouette.
For prom, it works well as a standout individual gown. If a group of friends is wearing the same dress in different colourways — Slate Blue and White are both available — that can be a visually cohesive and intentional group look without being identical.
For pageant, the gown is designed for the stage and works as an individual competition gown. It is not typically worn in a damas or court context. If you are dressing a court or group and want complementary styles, we can help you find coordinating Clarisse styles that share the beaded aesthetic without the cape. Text or WhatsApp our concierge at +1 416-536-2956 or +1 213-868-3131 and we can pull options that work alongside Clarisse 62176.
Clarisse 62176 runs true to size for most customers when measured accurately. Because the gown is fully fitted — no ruching, no stretch fabric, no flowing skirt to absorb size variation — it is critical to measure bust, waist, and hips before selecting your size and to compare those numbers directly to the Clarisse size chart.
If your measurements fall between two sizes, size up. The waist and side seams on a beaded fitted gown can be taken in by a local tailor, which is a straightforward alteration. Taking a beaded gown out is more difficult and depends on available seam allowance, so it is safer to have a little extra fabric to work with than to have the gown be too tight.
The illusion bodice panel means the fit through the torso is visible — any gaping or pulling will show. For this reason, we recommend treating your measurements as the primary guide rather than relying on your usual dress size from another brand.
