Description
About the Dress: Clarisse 63149
Clarisse 63149 is a long, fitted prom gown built around a heavily beaded illusion corset bodice, a ruched jersey skirt, and a dramatic front high slit. The strapless scoop neckline sits at the top of the corset, and visible boning channels run through the bodice to hold everything in place. A sweep train follows the hem. The back is fully open around a lace-up closure, making this one of the boldest silhouettes in the Clarisse collection. It comes in Electric Pink, Electric Teal, and Electric Chocolate.
Fit & Silhouette
Clarisse 63149 is fitted through the bust, waist, and hips from top to hem. This is not a fitted — the ruched jersey skirt is fitted all the way down with a front high slit for movement, not a flared hem below the knee. The boning inside the corset bodice holds the bust securely without needing straps. The lace-up closure at the back lets you fine-tune the fit at the waist. Because the skirt is stretch jersey and the bodice is structured with boning, the dress holds its shape while still moving with your body.
Fabric & Detail
The bodice of Clarisse 63149 is built on an illusion base covered in dense beading and embellishment, with boning channels sewn underneath for structure. The skirt switches to a ruched stretch jersey that drapes smoothly over the hips and thighs. At the waist, side cut-outs add an extra layer of drama where the bodice meets the skirt. The front high slit starts above mid-thigh and allows full stride. A sweep train extends from the back hem. The lace-up back closure runs the full length of the lace-up back, visible through and around the lacing.

Style & Occasion
Clarisse 63149 is designed for prom and pageant. The lace-up back, front high slit, and beaded corset bodice make this a statement gown — exactly the kind of look that works for prom night or a pageant stage where you want maximum impact. Electric Pink is high-energy and reads very bold under event lighting. Electric Teal is striking and slightly unexpected — great if you want to stand out from a sea of pinks and reds. Electric Chocolate is a deeper, richer option that photographs beautifully and looks polished under warm stage lighting. All three colorways are shown on the product page so you can compare them side by side. Clarisse 63149 suits confident wearers who want a fully-structured, beaded bodice without the bulk of a ballgown skirt.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — Marlas Fashions ships Clarisse 63149 to you so you can try it on at home before your event, and a straightforward return or exchange process is in place if the fit or colour isn't right.
Returns are accepted for store credit, an exchange, or a refund. If you choose a refund, a 30% restocking fee is deducted from the amount returned. Store credit never expires, so there's no pressure to pick a replacement right away — you can take your time and apply the credit toward any future order.
The most common reason shoppers return a gown is sizing, so it's worth taking a few minutes before ordering to measure your full bust, natural waist, and fullest hip and compare those numbers against the Clarisse size chart. Because Clarisse 63149 has a lace-up back closure, there's meaningful room to adjust the fit at the waist after the dress arrives — this makes it more forgiving than a zipper gown. If you're between sizes, that adjustability often means you can size to the measurement that fits your hips and let the lace-up handle the rest.
For Clarisse 63149 specifically, keep in mind that the boned corset bodice is structured and fitted from the first wear — it doesn't stretch or break in the way a soft fabric gown might. The ruched jersey skirt, on the other hand, has some natural give and is quite comfortable against the body.
If you order and find the length is slightly long, that's a standard alteration any local bridal or formalwear tailor can handle in one appointment. The sweep train can be hemmed if needed.
Shipping to the US and Canada generally takes 7 to 12 business days from the warehouse. Rush options are available at checkout if your event date is close. Once your order ships, you receive full tracking information.
If you want to talk through sizing, colours, or the return process before placing your order, the team is easy to reach. Text or call +1 416-536-2956, or send a WhatsApp message to +1 213-868-3131 — the concierge team responds quickly and can walk you through anything you're unsure about.
Clarisse 63149 is built differently from most beaded fitted gowns in a few specific ways that matter for how the dress looks and feels on.
The bodice is an illusion corset construction — meaning the beading sits on top of a sheer illusion base rather than directly on a fabric panel. Combined with the visible boning channels underneath, this creates a bodice that is dense with embellishment but also structured and supportive without needing straps or a built-in bra cup insert. Many beaded fitted gowns use a beaded fabric layer over a soft lining, which looks similar at a glance but doesn't give the same hold. The boning in Clarisse 63149 means the top of the gown stays exactly where it's placed, even on a long night of movement.
The skirt material is a deliberate contrast. Rather than continuing the beading all the way down — which would add significant weight and restrict movement — the skirt switches to ruched stretch jersey. Jersey moves with the body, doesn't pick up lint or wrinkle the way beaded fabric does when you sit, and feels comfortable against the legs during a long event. The ruching adds texture and shape without adding bulk.
The front high slit is another distinction. Many long fitted gowns have no slit or a small side-seam slit. The front high slit on Clarisse 63149 starts high on the thigh, giving full freedom of movement for walking, dancing, and posing. This is one reason it works well for pageant as well as prom — it photographs with strong leg lines.
The fully open lace-up back combined with side waist cut-outs makes this one of the more exposed backed gowns in its price range. If you've been comparing it to a gown with a partially open or keyhole back, the back exposure on Clarisse 63149 is substantially more dramatic.
Finally, the three Electric colorways — Pink, Teal, and Chocolate — are designed to be vivid under event and stage lighting. These are not muted or pastel shades. If you want a gown that reads with impact from across a room or a stage, these colours are chosen specifically for that.
The lace-up closure on Clarisse 63149 runs the full length of the lace-up back, from just below the neckline to the base of the bodice. It works like a corset lace — a single cord or ribbon threads through eyelets on both sides of the back opening, and you tighten or loosen it to dial in the fit at the waist.
In practical terms, a lace-up closure gives you roughly one to two full sizes of adjustability depending on how the dress is cinched. This is one of the main reasons shoppers who are between sizes find lace-up gowns easier to work with than zipper styles. If your bust and hips fit a size 6 but your waist is narrower than the size 6 pattern, the lace-up lets you cinch the waist without having the dress altered.
For the best result, have a friend or family member help you lace it up on the night of the event so the tension is even from top to bottom. If you lace it yourself, the tension tends to be uneven and the back closure won't lay as flat.
The back of Clarisse 63149 is fully open around the lacing — the sides of the back are exposed, not just a small keyhole. Keep this in mind when thinking about undergarments. A standard bra will be visible. Most wearers of this style use adhesive cups or no undergarment on top.
Yes, and Clarisse 63149 is actually well suited to group coordination because all three colorways — Electric Pink, Electric Teal, and Electric Chocolate — share the same silhouette, beaded bodice construction, and ruched jersey skirt. A court or group where each person wears a different Electric colorway looks intentionally coordinated rather than mismatched, because the structure and cut are identical across colours.
If your group wants to match exactly, all three colorways are available through Marlas Fashions and can be ordered at the same time. Ordering together is the best way to ensure everyone receives gowns from the same production run, which keeps the colour saturation consistent.
For damas or a court that uses a different gown style altogether, Clarisse 63149 works as a lead or featured gown alongside simpler fitted styles in coordinating colours. The beaded corset bodice on Clarisse 63149 naturally distinguishes it as a standout piece without clashing with less embellished styles in the same palette.
If you're unsure which of the three colorways photographs best in a group setting, Electric Teal and Electric Pink tend to separate well from each other in photos, while Electric Chocolate pairs naturally with both. Reach out to the Marlas team before ordering if you want a recommendation based on your specific group lineup.
Clarisse 63149 fits close to the body through the bust, waist, and hips, so accurate measurements are the most important thing before ordering. Take your full bust, natural waist, and fullest hip measurements and compare them to the Clarisse size chart.
Because this gown has a lace-up back closure, you have more flexibility than you would with a zipper. If you're between sizes, most shoppers find it works best to size to the largest of the three measurements — usually the hips — and use the lace-up to bring in the waist. Do not size down hoping the lace-up will compensate for a bodice that's too small through the bust.
The boned corset bodice does not stretch. The ruched jersey skirt has some natural give. If your hips are at the top of a size range, go up one size and let the tailor or lace-up handle the waist.
For height: Clarisse 63149 is cut for someone around 5'9" with heels. If you're shorter, budget for a standard hem alteration. The sweep train can also be shortened if needed. If you're taller, check the length before ordering — some taller shoppers find the train falls shorter than expected.
Clarisse 63149 is designed primarily for prom and pageant. The heavily beaded illusion corset bodice, fully open lace-up back, front high slit, and sweep train are built for events where a dramatic, high-impact gown is exactly right.
For prom, this is a strong choice if you want a structured fitted gown with real beading rather than a printed or embellished fabric substitute. The three Electric colorways are vivid under prom lighting and photograph with strong contrast.
For pageant, the over-the-top beaded bodice, the sweep train, and the front high slit all align with the kind of styling expected at Miss Universe-style events. The gown reads well from a distance and on stage.
The fully lace-up back and front high slit make this gown a natural fit for evening galas, black-tie receptions, and prom; for more conservative formal events, a less revealing silhouette may be the better choice. It is a bold, fully exposed gown and is best suited to events where that level of drama is expected and welcome.
The boned corset bodice in Clarisse 63149 provides significant built-in support through the bust. The boning channels hold the bodice firmly in place, and most wearers find they don't need additional structure at the top.
Because the back is fully open around the lace-up closure, a regular bra is not an option — the straps and band would be fully visible. Most wearers of this style use adhesive silicone cups, a low-back adhesive bra, or no undergarment on top at all. The boning in the bodice is structured enough that many shoppers are comfortable relying on it entirely.
For the skirt, the ruched jersey fabric sits close to the body. Seamless underwear or nude-tone briefs work best to avoid visible lines through the jersey. Shapewear shorts are also compatible with this silhouette as long as they don't extend above the waist where the cut-outs are.
If you're unsure about adhesive products for your skin type, test a small adhesive cup on your forearm the week before the event to check for any sensitivity.
Yes, Clarisse 63149 can be hemmed and is a relatively straightforward alteration for an experienced formalwear or bridal tailor. The ruched jersey skirt hems cleanly, and the sweep train can be shortened at the same appointment.
Clarisse 63149 is designed for approximately 5'9" with a moderate heel. If you're shorter, you'll likely need at least two to three inches taken off the hem to avoid the train dragging. If you plan to wear flats or low heels, budget for more. The best approach is to try the dress on in the shoes you'll wear on the night and have the tailor pin the hem at that point.
The beaded bodice is not typically altered in length — the bodice sits where it sits based on the size you order. Waist adjustments are handled through the lace-up closure. If you need seam work beyond what the lace-up can achieve, a structured formalwear tailor can take in the side seams, but this is a more involved alteration on a boned bodice.
Allow two to three weeks before your event for alterations so there's time for a fitting and any minor adjustments after the first round of work.
