Portia and Scarlett PS26037 Beaded Corset Ballgown with Tiered Ruffle Skirt
About the Dress: Portia & Scarlett PS26037
Portia and Scarlett PS26037 is a strapless sweetheart beaded corset ballgown with a dramatic multi-tier organza ruffle skirt and a prominent high front slit. The bodice is fully encrusted in rhinestone crystal beading with clearly visible boning channels running throughout, giving it a structured corset fit from the bust down. The skirt opens into voluminous tiered ruffle layers in crisp organza, creating serious ballroom presence. The back is fully open, with the majority of the back exposed through the sheer beaded corset structure. PS26037 is available in Black, Blue, Pink, and Red.
Fit & Silhouette
Portia and Scarlett PS26037 is built on a full ballgown silhouette with an a-line volume that grows from the fitted corset bodice into wide tiered ruffle layers at the skirt. The corset bodice is boned and fitted through the bust and waist, holding everything in place without straps. The sweetheart neckline sits straight and low across the chest. A high front slit cuts through the ruffle skirt, giving room to move and adding a bold contrast to the ballgown volume. The back is open — the majority of the back is bare, and the beaded corset structure frames the exposure. This gown fits true to size in most cases, and because of the structured boning, many wearers find they do not need to size up for support.
Fabric & Detail
The base fabric is organza — a crisp, slightly stiff fabric that holds the ruffle tiers in their shape and gives the skirt its structured, dramatic volume. Organza is stiffer than chiffon and holds its layers cleanly without drooping. The bodice is covered in rhinestone and crystal beading from top to bottom, applied directly over the boned corset foundation. The boning channels are clearly visible beneath the beading, which is what gives the bodice its smooth, held-in look. The ruffle skirt layers are plain organza — clean and unembellished — which lets the beaded bodice take center stage. The open back is framed by the sheer beaded corset structure, which means there is beading visible at the back edges while the skin is exposed through the center.

Style & Occasion
Portia and Scarlett PS26037 is built for a big entrance. The combination of a crystal-beaded corset bodice, a sky-high slit, and a massive tiered ruffle skirt makes it a strong choice for prom, pageant competition, a sweet-16 celebration, or a debut ball. The ballgown volume reads formal and dramatic, while the open back and high slit bring in a bold, modern energy. In Black it photographs as sharp and editorial. In Pink it reads soft and feminine. In Red it is high-impact and confident. In Blue it is fresh and unexpected. Pair it with a simple strappy heel and minimal jewelry — the beading does the work. Hair up will show off the open back. If you want to highlight the slit, keep accessories to the upper body only. Marlas Fashions is an authorized Portia and Scarlett retailer with over 40 years in the industry.
