Description
About the Dress: Clarisse 62180
Clarisse 62180 is a fully sequined, fitted long gown built for maximum impact. The entire dress — bodice and skirt from top to bottom — is covered in multicolor sequins arranged in an abstract painterly pattern over a silver base. It comes in two colorways: Magenta/Multicolor and Cream/Multicolor. The silhouette is a fitted sheath that follows the body closely from the structured bodice all the way to the hem, with a thigh-high slit cut into the front of the skirt for movement and drama.
Fit & Silhouette
Clarisse 62180 is cut as a true fitted sheath — it contours through the bust, waist, and hips without flaring at the knee. The structured sweetheart bodice has visible boning channels that hold the shape and support the bust, so the gown stays in place all night. Thin spaghetti straps cross at the back and anchor the bodice. The high front slit starts at the thigh and allows a full stride while keeping the overall silhouette sleek and body-hugging. This gown runs true to size; if you are between sizes, size up so the bodice boning sits correctly against your ribcage.
Fabric & Detail
The base of Clarisse 62180 is stretch jersey, which gives the fitted cut its comfortable stretch and recovery. Over that base, every inch of the dress is covered in multicolor sequins — the sequin layer is the entire visual surface of the gown, with no plain panels anywhere. The sequin pattern creates a floral-painterly effect in either a bold magenta palette or a softer cream palette, both over a silver sequin ground. The sweetheart neckline features a center bodice cut-out panel framed by rhinestone-trimmed beaded channels, adding structured detail at the center front. The straps are thin and smooth, and the full back is left open with the straps crossing to form a crisscross configuration.
Key Features
- Full-surface multicolor sequin embellishment — bodice and skirt, top to bottom
- Structured sweetheart neckline with visible boning channels through the bodice
- Rhinestone-trimmed center cut-out panel at the sweetheart neckline
- High front slit cut to the thigh for ease of movement
- Crisscross spaghetti straps with approximately 90% open back
- Stretch jersey base for comfortable all-night wear
- Available in Magenta/Multicolor and Cream/Multicolor
Style & Occasion
Clarisse 62180 is designed for prom, pageant competitions, and formal evening events where a fully embellished, high-impact gown is the goal. The combination of all-over sequins, a boned sweetheart bodice, open back, and front slit makes this a standout choice on any stage or dance floor. Style the Magenta/Multicolor version with silver or rose-gold accessories and a simple updo to let the sequin pattern lead. The Cream/Multicolor colorway works well with gold or champagne accessories for a slightly softer look. Both colorways photograph well under stage and event lighting. Because of the overtly sleek and sexy styling, this gown is best reserved for prom, pageant, and formal evening settings rather than wedding events.

Frequently Asked Questions
If Clarisse 62180 arrives and the fit is not right, you have a few options. You can return it for store credit (which never expires, so you can use it any time), exchange it for a different size or style, or request a refund minus a 30% restocking fee.
To make returns as smooth as possible, keep the original packaging and tags intact when you first try the gown on. Do not alter, steam, or wear the dress before you are certain you are keeping it. Once a dress has been altered or worn, it cannot be returned.
Because this gown has a boned bodice, fit at the bust and ribcage is the most important thing to check first when you try it on. If the boning sits correctly and the waist is snug but not straining, you have the right size. Minor adjustments at the waist or hem are easy for any alterations professional to handle and are much more cost-effective than a return and reorder.
If you are genuinely unsure about sizing before ordering, our team is happy to walk through the Clarisse size chart with you and compare it to your measurements before you commit to a size. Reaching out before you order is always faster than processing a return after the fact.
Clarisse 62180 is at its best at prom, pageant competitions, and formal evening events. The combination of full-surface multicolor sequins, a boned open-back sweetheart bodice, and a high front slit puts it firmly in the high-impact, overtly glamorous category — and that is exactly what makes it the right choice for certain events and the wrong choice for others.
For prom, this gown is one of the stronger options in the Clarisse line. The all-over sequins look spectacular under event lighting, and the fitted silhouette with the front slit photographs exceptionally well. Both the Magenta/Multicolor and Cream/Multicolor colorways stand out on a dark dance floor. If you are looking for a prom gown that reads as confident and maximalist rather than soft and romantic, this is the style to consider.
For pageant competitions, the gown qualifies under the fully embellished, over-the-top category. The structured bodice with boning gives it a polished, stage-ready look, and the open-back crisscross strap detail adds a distinctive visual element from the back that reads well from a distance. The high front slit allows the fluid movement needed on a stage walk.
For formal evening events — galas, awards ceremonies, or formal charity events — the gown works well when the dress code leans toward glamorous rather than conservative. The sequin coverage and exposed back place it in the fashion-forward end of formal dressing.
As a wedding guest, this gown suits evening receptions and black-tie affairs best, where its bold sequin design and open back feel at home. The open back, high front slit, and form-fitting sleek-and-sexy silhouette make it too revealing for a wedding setting. It is also not the right fit for events where covered, modest dressing is expected.
If you are shopping this gown for prom and want to coordinate with a court or group, Clarisse offers other styles in complementary silhouettes, and our team can help you find options that work together without being identical. The Magenta colorway in particular pairs well with a range of companion gowns in solids or simpler sequin styles.
Clarisse 62180 ships from our Los Angeles and New York warehouses for US orders, from our Toronto warehouse for Canadian orders, and from those same US locations for international destinations. Standard delivery takes 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is placed. If you need the gown sooner, rush shipping is available at checkout — select the rush option and your order moves to the front of the fulfillment queue.
All orders ship with full tracking so you can follow your gown from warehouse to door. Canadian customers pay no duties on their orders; US customers also have no additional duty charges. International customers outside the US and Canada ship with tracked service, and delivery windows vary by destination.
If you have a specific event date, we recommend ordering with as much lead time as possible, especially if you are planning to have the gown altered after it arrives. Build in at least one to two weeks after delivery for any tailoring you want done before the event. If your event is coming up quickly and you are unsure whether the timing works, reach out before ordering and we can confirm what is realistic for your date.
Clarisse 62180 is built around a structured sweetheart bodice with visible boning channels, and that structure is the key to how it works across different body types.
For hourglass figures, the fitted sheath silhouette follows every curve from the bust through the waist and hips, so the proportions are already there and the gown just highlights them. The full-surface sequins catch the light evenly across the body, and the boning keeps the bust lifted and supported without needing a separate undergarment.
For pear-shaped figures, the sweetheart neckline draws attention to the shoulders and décolletage, creating width at the top that balances fuller hips. The fitted skirt through the hips is smooth rather than gathered, so there are no extra layers adding bulk. The rhinestone-trimmed center panel at the neckline keeps the eye moving upward.
For straight or athletic figures, the boned sweetheart bodice creates the impression of a defined bust and waist even where natural curves are more subtle. The sequin pattern — especially the abstract multicolor design — adds visual texture that reads as dimension on the body rather than a flat surface.
For fuller busts, the boning is the main advantage. The channels run through the front of the bodice and hold their shape firmly, so the neckline stays in place through dancing, movement, and a full evening. The sweetheart cut frames the bust without overexposing it.
For petite figures, the high front slit is an asset — it breaks the long vertical line of the skirt and lets the leg show, which reads as height. Pairing the gown with a high heel completes that effect. If you are petite, you may want to ask your tailor to take up the hem slightly so the slit hits at the right thigh height for your frame.
For taller figures, the full-length fitted silhouette works especially well because there is enough vertical space for the sequin pattern to show completely. The crisscross open back also reads better at full height, where the entire back design is visible.
In general, if you are between sizes, size up. The boning in the bodice needs to sit flush against your ribcage to do its job — a bodice that is too tight will push up and not support correctly. A slightly larger size that you have taken in slightly at the waist will always look better than a bodice that is straining at the seams.
Most sequin prom gowns in this category use a single solid-color sequin fabric — one flat metallic color across the entire dress. Clarisse 62180 does something different: the sequins are applied in an abstract painterly multicolor pattern over a silver base, so the gown has depth and movement in the embellishment rather than a single flat shine. Under event lighting, the multicolor sequins catch and refract light differently at different angles, which means the gown looks different in motion than it does standing still.
The second distinction is the structured boning in the bodice. A lot of sequin dresses at this price point use only a built-in shelf bra or light boning tape. Clarisse 62180 has visible boning channels running through the front of the bodice — the same type of construction used in higher-priced couture gowns — which gives the sweetheart neckline a sharper, more polished shape and provides real bust support without a separate undergarment.
The rhinestone-trimmed center cut-out panel at the neckline is also a specific design detail that sets this style apart. It adds a structured focal point at the center front without making the neckline overtly revealing, and it works with both colorways.
Finally, the open-back crisscross strap construction means the back of the dress is as considered as the front — a detail that matters when you are standing on a stage or on a dance floor where people see you from every angle.
Clarisse 62180 does not use a zipper or a traditional hook-and-eye closure. The back is held by thin spaghetti straps that cross in an X configuration across the open back — a crisscross back construction. The straps connect the back of the sweetheart bodice to the front, and their tension combined with the boning in the bodice front is what keeps the gown in position.
Because there is no adjustable lace-up closure, the fit at the bodice is set by the size you order. This is why sizing correctly from the start matters more with this style than with a gown that has a lace-up corset back. The boning needs to sit flush against your ribcage, and the sweetheart edge needs to sit at your natural bustline.
If the bodice fits but the straps feel slightly loose or tight, a seamstress can adjust the strap length at the back — it is a straightforward alteration. If the bodice itself is a size too large, taking it in at the side seams through the stretch jersey base is also a manageable alteration for most tailors. If you are between sizes, size up and have the waist taken in slightly rather than sizing down and finding the boning too tight.
Yes, Clarisse 62180 is designed to be worn without a separate bra. The structured boning channels in the front of the bodice provide the support and lift that the bust needs, and the sweetheart construction holds the shape firmly. Most wearers at the recommended size will not need any additional undergarment for the bust.
Because the back is almost entirely open — approximately 90% of the back is exposed — a traditional bra is not an option with this gown. Stick-on adhesive bra cups can be used if you want additional coverage or security, but for most cup sizes the boning alone is sufficient.
For the lower body, seamless underwear in a nude or skin-tone shade is the standard recommendation with a fitted sequin gown. Any underwear with a visible waistband or seam line will show through the stretch jersey base under strong lighting. Thong or seamless bikini cuts work best. Shapewear is not necessary for this silhouette, but if you prefer it, a lightweight seamless mid-thigh short is the most compatible option — avoid anything with thick seams at the hip or thigh, which can interrupt the smooth line of the fitted skirt.
For footwear, a strappy heel or a minimalist pointed-toe pump keeps the proportion of the gown clean. A platform sandal works especially well with the high front slit because it adds height without competing with the sequin surface.
Clarisse 62180 is cut as a full-length gown sized to a standard height range. If you are above average height, the hem will likely sit correctly or close to it. If you are petite — roughly 5'4" and under — you will almost certainly need the hem taken up, and the placement of the front slit will shift along with the hemline.
Before any hemming, wear the exact shoes you plan to wear to the event. The slit height is calibrated to the full length of the dress, so shortening the hem changes where the slit opens relative to your leg. Have your alterations professional mark the new hem length with your shoes on, and confirm that the slit still opens at a comfortable thigh height before they cut anything.
The stretch jersey base of the gown is workable for most experienced alterations professionals, but sequin fabric at a hem requires careful handling — the hem finish needs to be done cleanly so the cut sequin edge does not catch or fray. Ask your tailor specifically about their experience hemming sequin or beaded gowns before you commit. Most bridal and formalwear tailors handle this routinely; a general clothing tailor may not.
