Frequently Asked Questions

What is the return policy if the Ladivine CC502 does not fit or I change my mind?

Marlas Fashions accepts returns on the Ladivine CC502 and processes them three ways: a full store credit that never expires, an exchange for a different size or colour, or a refund minus a 30% restocking fee. The store credit option is particularly useful if you are between sizes and want to try two and return one — the credit sits in your account with no expiry pressure so you can apply it to your next purchase whenever you are ready. The exchange path is the most popular choice when fit is the issue: you send the dress back and we ship the correct size. For the refund route, the 30% restocking fee reflects the handling and inspection cost on our end, and we frame that plainly so there are no surprises. To start a return or exchange, contact the team with your order number and the reason. The dress needs to be unworn, unaltered, and in its original condition with all packaging. Trying the dress on at home to check fit is completely fine — that is expected and does not affect your return eligibility, as long as it has not been altered or worn to an event. Our concierge team is available by text at +1 416-536-2956 or WhatsApp at +1 213-868-3131. Every CC502 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the CC502, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise. Popular colorways of the CC502 sell out quickly each season, so early orders get first pick. Our stylists fit the CC502 in the boutique every week and know exactly how it runs. Every CC502 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless.

How fast does Ladivine CC502 ship and where does it ship from?

The Ladivine CC502 ships from Marlas Fashions' warehouses in Los Angeles and New York, with Canadian orders shipping from the Toronto warehouse. Standard delivery takes 7 to 12 business days from the time your order is confirmed. If you have a firm event date — homecoming, a cocktail party, a semi-formal — and you are cutting it close, rush shipping is available at checkout. Select the rush option and your dress moves to the front of the queue. US and Canadian customers pay no duties on their orders, which is a meaningful saving on a dress at this price point. International orders ship with full tracking from the same warehouses and are delivered worldwide. Once your order ships you receive a tracking number by email so you can follow the parcel every step of the way. If you need to confirm whether your event date is reachable before placing the order, the team is happy to give you an honest answer — reach out via text or WhatsApp before you buy. The single most important thing to get right on timing is to order as early as possible; the 7-to-12-business-day window is a working-days count, so weekends and public holidays do not count toward the total. For most domestic US customers ordering with standard shipping, the dress arrives well before homecoming season deadlines when ordered at least three weeks out. Rush shipping tightens that window significantly. Every CC502 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the CC502, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise. Popular colorways of the CC502 sell out quickly each season, so early orders get first pick.

What makes the Ladivine CC502 different from other short beaded dresses at this price point?

The Ladivine CC502 stands out because of the illusion mesh corset bodice. Most short beaded dresses at this price use a simple strapless bodice with surface beading applied to fabric. The CC502 instead builds the bodice as a boned corset cage with mesh stretched over it, and then layers the beading and floral appliqués on top of that structure. The result is a bodice that holds its shape independently — it does not rely on you to hold it up, and it does not collapse or crinkle when you sit or move. The visible boning channels also give it a sculptural, fashion-forward look that reads as more expensive than the price suggests. The floral appliqués at the waistline add a second layer of detail that ties the bodice to the skirt cleanly. On top of that, the plain satin skirt is a deliberate design choice — it does not compete with the bodice, so the embellishment reads clearly rather than getting lost in a busy skirt. Most competing dresses add embellishment everywhere and the result looks cluttered. The CC502's bodice-only embellishment with a clean satin skirt is a more considered design, and it photographs very well, which matters for homecoming and bat mitzvah photos.

How does the back closure on the Ladivine CC502 work and how much can it be adjusted?

No back-view image was provided for the Ladivine CC502, so we cannot confirm the exact closure type from photography. The bodice is a boned corset construction, which typically uses either a zip or a lace-up back, but we are not confirming that detail without a verified image. If the closure type is important to your decision — for example, if you need a lace-up back for maximum size adjustability, or if you prefer a zip for ease of dressing — please contact the team before ordering and we can check the spec directly with the designer. What we can confirm is that the boned bodice structure means the fit through the torso is largely determined by the bodice dimensions rather than a closure, so choosing the right size is more important than the closure type for getting the fit right. The structured corset bodice does not have stretch, so sizing to your actual measurements is the priority.

Can a homecoming court or bat mitzvah group all wear the Ladivine CC502 together?

Yes, the Ladivine CC502 works well for group coordination because it comes in three distinct colorways — black, burgundy, and gold. A homecoming court can assign a single color to the whole group for a unified look, or use two colors for a principal-and-court contrast (for example, gold for the honoree and burgundy for the court). For a bat mitzvah party where the dress code is coordinated but not identical, mixing the three colorways across the group reads as intentional and pulled-together. When ordering for a group, place all orders at the same time from the same stock batch to maximize the chance of consistent dye lots across the colorways. If you are ordering six or more dresses, contact the team in advance to confirm stock levels across all required sizes and colors before you place individual orders — it avoids the situation where one size sells out between the first and last person in the group checking out.

How does the Ladivine CC502 fit and should I size up or size true to size?

The Ladivine CC502 is a boned corset bodice, which means it is structured and does not stretch. Size to your actual measurements — specifically your bust and waist — rather than your usual dress size. If you are between sizes, sizing up is the safer choice because a bodice that is slightly large can be taken in by a tailor, but a bodice that is too small cannot be let out. The full satin skirt has more forgiveness than the bodice, so the critical measurement is the upper body. Use the Ladivine size chart and measure yourself with a soft tape while wearing the undergarments you plan to wear with the dress. If your bust and waist measurements fall in different sizes on the chart, size to whichever measurement is larger and have the other point adjusted by a local tailor if needed. This is standard practice for structured corset bodices.

What occasions is the Ladivine CC502 appropriate for?

The Ladivine CC502 is appropriate for homecoming dances, cocktail parties, semi-formal events, after-prom, and bat mitzvahs. The beaded corset bodice and full satin skirt give it a dressy, celebratory feel that fits any of those contexts well. It is short, which places it in semi-formal and cocktail territory rather than black-tie or formal gown territory. The three colorways — black, burgundy, and gold — each lean slightly differently: black reads as cocktail-chic, burgundy reads as semi-formal and festive, and gold reads as celebratory and homecoming-ready. It is not a dress we would recommend for a wedding guest context given the deep sweetheart neckline and party styling, but for every other semi-formal and cocktail occasion it is a strong choice. Every CC502 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the CC502, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise. Popular colorways of the CC502 sell out quickly each season, so early orders get first pick.

What undergarments work best with the strapless sweetheart neckline on the Ladivine CC502?

The boned corset bodice on the Ladivine CC502 provides built-in bust support, so most wearers do not need a separate bra. The boning holds the bodice firmly against the body and the strapless construction is designed to be worn without straps. If you prefer additional coverage or support, a strapless adhesive bra or silicone cups can be added inside the bodice without affecting the outer line of the dress. Avoid underwire bras that extend above the bodice line — they will show above the sweetheart neckline. For bottoms, seamless underwear in a neutral color works best under the satin skirt to avoid visible lines. Shapewear shorts are a popular choice with this style because the full skirt provides cover and the shaper adds a smooth silhouette under the satin. Every CC502 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. If you are between sizes on the CC502, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise.
