Description
About the Dress: Clarisse 62282
Clarisse 62282 is a long fitted strapless gown built around a show-stopping illusion-mesh corset bodice layered with beaded lace floral appliqués. The sweetheart neckline frames the décolletage cleanly, while sheer mesh beneath the lace reveals visible boning channels that give the corset its sculpted shape. The appliqués trail from the bodice down onto the hip, connecting the embellished top to the satin skirt below. It is available in Black, Red, and Royal Blue.
Fit & Silhouette
Clarisse 62282 fits close through the bust, waist, and hips — a true fitted silhouette that follows the body all the way down. The satin skirt stays narrow through the thighs before opening into a dramatic high front slit that adds movement without flaring the skirt outward. A sweep train follows at the hem. The back is fully bare from the neckline to below the waist. Built-in boning channels run through the corset bodice to hold the shape and support the bust without a bra. This dress is designed to be worn snug — order your exact measurements and compare to the Clarisse size chart.
Fabric & Detail
The base of Clarisse 62282 is smooth satin — used across the fitted skirt, the lining, and the structural base of the bodice. Over the bodice, a layer of sheer mesh creates the illusion panel, and intricate beaded lace floral appliqués are layered on top of that mesh. The appliqués carry dimension and catch light with their beading. Hip-level gathering on the sides of the skirt adds subtle texture where the satin transitions from the fitted lower body into the slit opening. A sweep train finishes the hemline at the back.

Style & Occasion
Clarisse 62282 is built for the big moments: prom, formal galas, evening competitions, and pageant stages. The combination of a beaded lace corset bodice, high front slit, and fully open back makes this a high-impact gown that photographs exceptionally well under event lighting. Red is the boldest choice and reads as pure drama on the dance floor or stage. Black is sleek and flattering in every lighting condition. Royal Blue brings richness and colour pop without sacrificing sophistication. Pair with strappy heels and minimal jewelry — the beaded appliqués do the decorative work. A simple updo keeps the open back visible as a design feature. As a wedding guest, this dress suits evening receptions and black-tie celebrations particularly well.

Frequently Asked Questions
This is one of the most common questions we get about fitted strapless gowns, and the honest answer is: yes, you can dance in Clarisse 62282 — but fit and prep matter a lot.
The gown is designed to be worn snug. The corset bodice has visible boning channels that hold everything in place and actually support your bust throughout the night without a bra. That structure is your friend on the dance floor — it keeps the dress from slipping, shifting, or needing adjustment every hour. Once it is on properly, it stays put.
The high front slit is the real MVP for movement. The skirt is narrow and fitted through the thighs, which means without the slit, walking quickly or taking big steps would feel restricted. With the slit, you have a full range of motion — you can stride, step, and dance freely. Many customers tell us the slit actually makes the dress more comfortable to wear all night than a narrower fitted gown without one.
The open back means there is no fabric bunching or pulling behind you, which also contributes to how the dress feels during dancing. It moves with you rather than against you.
Fit is the biggest factor. If the dress is too tight in the skirt, even the slit will not fully compensate. If it is too loose in the bodice, the boning cannot do its job and you will be tugging at the top all night. We strongly recommend ordering based on your exact measurements — bust, waist, and hips — and comparing them carefully against the Clarisse 62282 size chart before placing your order. If you are between sizes, go up and have the waist taken in by a local tailor, rather than going down and fighting the fit all night.
Break in any new heels before the event, and consider a heel grip or anti-slip sole so you are not worried about your shoes while you focus on the dancing.
If you have specific fit questions or want a second opinion on sizing before you order, our team is happy to help — text us at +1 416-536-2956 or reach us on WhatsApp at +1 213-868-3131.
Clarisse 62282 works across three distinct event types, and the answer shifts a little depending on which one you are dressing for.
For prom, this is a strong statement gown. The beaded lace appliqués on the illusion corset bodice, the high front slit, and the fully open back put it firmly in the head-turner category. If your prom has a formal or black-tie dress code, 62282 meets it comfortably. If the dress code is semi-formal, this is at the dressier end — still appropriate, but expect to be one of the most dressed-up people in the room, which for many is exactly the goal.
For pageant, Clarisse 62282 is a strong fit. The over-the-top embellishment on the bodice, the dramatic slit, the sweep train, and the open back all align with the visual language of competitive pageant styling. It reads well under stage lighting because the beaded appliqués catch and reflect light. If you are competing and want a gown that photographs well from the front and commands attention from the back, this delivers on both.
For a formal gala or evening event, the gown is appropriate when the setting is genuinely formal and the dress code welcomes bold styling. For religious ceremonies or workplace galas where a more conservative dress code applies, a covered style would be the better choice. This is an overtly sexy gown — open back, high slit, fitted from bust to hem — and it is designed to be worn in spaces where that reads as intentional elegance rather than out of place.
On colorway: Red is the most dramatic and high-contrast option. It reads as pure confidence on a pageant stage or under prom lighting. If you want to be seen first, Red is the choice. Black is the most versatile — it photographs well in every lighting condition, reads as sophisticated rather than flashy, and pairs easily with almost any jewelry or shoe. Royal Blue is vivid and rich without the aggression of red — it has depth and photographs beautifully, especially in outdoor or natural light settings. All three colorways are available and photographed on the product page so you can compare them directly.
Clarisse 62282 should be dry-cleaned only. Do not hand-wash or machine-wash this gown — the combination of structured boning, illusion mesh, beaded lace appliqués, and satin is not suitable for water immersion at home.
After the event, hang the gown on a padded hanger immediately rather than folding it. Satin creases from sustained pressure, and the sooner you hang it, the less work a steamer will need to do later. If you need to remove a fresh stain, blot gently with a clean dry cloth — never rub, and do not apply water directly to the beaded areas.
For storage, use a breathable fabric garment bag, not a plastic bag or sealed container. Plastic traps humidity and can yellow satin over time. Store in a cool, dark space away from direct sunlight.
For travel, fold the skirt loosely in tissue paper and lay the gown flat in a hard-shell case if possible. If you are checking the dress as luggage or packing it into a garment bag for a flight, fold the bodice face-up with tissue between the appliqués to prevent the beading from catching on the mesh. A professional steamer — or a quick session with a garment steamer on the satin skirt — will smooth out travel creases before the event.
Because the bodice of Clarisse 62282 is already heavily embellished with beaded lace floral appliqués, the general principle is to keep accessories minimal and let the gown lead.
For shoes, a strappy heeled sandal in gold, silver, or a tone that matches your colorway is the most reliable choice. A stiletto or block heel both work — the slit gives you full range of motion, so heel height is a personal comfort decision rather than a styling constraint. Avoid closed-toe pumps in a contrasting color; the fitted skirt and slit draw attention downward and a jarring shoe color disrupts the line.
For jewelry, restraint is the rule. The neckline is a sweetheart, which means your collarbone and upper chest are exposed — a delicate chain with a small pendant or a simple pair of drop earrings is enough. Avoid a statement necklace; it competes directly with the beaded appliqué bodice. If you want a bolder earring, keep the necklace off entirely. For the wrist, a thin bracelet or bangle is fine; an oversized cuff overwhelms the look.
For hair, an updo or half-up style keeps the fully open back visible as a design feature. If you wear your hair down, it covers the open back entirely — which is a personal choice, but you lose one of the gown's strongest visual elements.
Clarisse 62282 is a fitted silhouette with built-in boning, and it works well across a range of body types when sized correctly.
The boned illusion corset bodice cinches and defines the waist while supporting the bust — this is especially flattering for hourglass and pear shapes where the fitted structure emphasizes the waist-to-hip ratio. The high front slit breaks the long fitted line of the skirt and adds visual interest at the leg, which creates length and proportion without relying on vertical seaming.
For customers with fuller hips or thighs, the key is to size to the widest measurement and have the bodice taken in by a tailor if needed. The satin skirt is fitted through the hips and does not have a lot of ease, so accurate measurements are essential. The ruching at the hip area can be flattering because gathered fabric does not pull or strain the way flat-cut satin might.
For petite figures, the sweep train and fitted silhouette can add the illusion of length — pairing with a high heel reinforces this. For taller frames, the long fitted line of the gown is a natural fit. The gown is not recommended for customers who prefer a looser fit or significant ease in the skirt — it is designed to fit close to the body.
Clarisse 62282 ships from our Los Angeles and New York warehouses for US customers, and from our Toronto warehouse for Canadian customers. Standard delivery takes 7–12 business days from the order date. If you have a firm event date coming up quickly, rush processing and expedited shipping options are available at checkout — select the option that fits your timeline.
We ship worldwide with full tracking on every order. US and Canadian customers pay no duties or import fees. International customers should check local customs rules for their country, as import duties may apply depending on the destination.
If you need help figuring out whether standard shipping will arrive in time for your event date, reach out before you order — we can confirm estimated timelines based on your location. Every 62282 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the 62282, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise. Popular colorways of the 62282 sell out quickly each season, so early orders get first pick.
Yes — we accept returns, so you can order and try the dress on at home before your final decision. If Clarisse 62282 does not work for you, you have three options: a store credit that never expires, an exchange for a different size or style, or a refund minus a 30% restocking fee.
To qualify for a return, the dress must be unworn, unaltered, and in original condition with all tags attached. Dresses that have been hemmed, taken in, or altered are not eligible for return, so hold off on any alterations until you are certain about the fit and the style.
If you are deciding between two sizes, ordering both and returning the one that does not fit is a valid strategy — just make sure you initiate the return within the return window. Contact our team to confirm the current return window and process before you place a dual-size order.
The defining feature of Clarisse 62282 is the combination of the illusion-mesh corset bodice and the beaded lace floral appliqués in a single garment. A lot of fitted prom gowns do one or the other — a sequin or fully beaded bodice, or a corset silhouette with minimal decoration. Clarisse 62282 layers both: the sheer illusion mesh sits beneath the appliqués, so you can see the boning structure through the bodice while the lace and beading sit on top as a decorative layer. The result is a bodice with visible depth and construction rather than a flat surface of embellishment.
The front high slit is centered at the front of the skirt, not the side seam — this is a styling choice that reads more dramatically on stage and in photos. The fully open back takes the gown to a second level of exposure that many gowns at this price point either skip or soften with illusion mesh across the back. On 62282, the back is genuinely bare.
The sweep train adds length and drama to the back view without the full floor-drag of a longer train, which means it is easier to manage at an event while still making an impression as you walk.
