Description
About the Dress: Bella Princess C337
Bella Princess C337 is a long ballgown designed for little girls stepping into the spotlight at a mini quinceañera or a special children's formal celebration. The gown features a beaded appliqué bodice, a full glitter tulle skirt, a sweetheart neckline with thin double straps, and a lace-up corset back. It is available in sizes 2 through 16 in Champagne, Green, and Lilac.
Fit & Silhouette
Bella Princess C337 is a full ballgown silhouette — a fitted bodice that opens into a wide, floor-length skirt. The lace-up corset back allows the fit to be adjusted at the waist, which is especially helpful for growing girls between sizes. The thin double straps hold the sweetheart neckline securely in place so she can move, dance, and celebrate without worrying about the fit. Available in even sizes 2 through 16.
Fabric & Detail
The skirt of Bella Princess C337 is made from glitter tulle, which catches the light and gives the gown its sparkle without being heavy. The bodice is covered in beaded floral appliqués — dimensional, sewn-on pieces that add texture and detail right at the top of the dress. The lace-up corset back is clean and finished, and the boning inside the bodice gives it structure so it holds its shape throughout the event.
Key Features
- Full ballgown silhouette with floor-length glitter tulle skirt
- Beaded floral appliqué bodice with boning for structure
- Sweetheart neckline with thin double straps
- Lace-up corset back for an adjustable, secure fit
- Sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16
- Available in Champagne, Green, and Lilac
- Matching glitter cape available separately
Style & Occasion
Bella Princess C337 is built for a little girl's most memorable moments — a mini quinceañera, a daddy-daughter celebration, a children's pageant, or any formal event where she deserves to feel like the star of the room. The glitter tulle skirt photographs beautifully under ballroom lighting, and the champagne beige colorway gives a warm, golden look in person. Green is a vivid, rich tone, and lilac is a soft, cool purple. All three are available, though only Champagne and Lilac are photographed on the site — the Green is true to the color family shown. The matching glitter cape seen in some photos is sold separately and is not included with the dress. Bella Princess C337 is offered in Champagne, Green, Lilac, in sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and every order is checked by hand before it leaves the boutique so the fit and finish arrive exactly as photographed. Order early enough to leave a week or two for a tailor to fine-tune the hem and bodice before the celebration. Canadian orders ship from our Toronto warehouse with no duties at the door, and our stylists can confirm stock in your size and colour by text or WhatsApp before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Bella Princess C337 has a boned, structured bodice that provides its own support — there is no separate built-in bra cup sewn in, but the boning gives the bodice enough shape and hold that most girls in sizes 2 through 16 will not need anything underneath. The sweetheart neckline sits close to the body and the thin double straps keep it in place, so the dress is designed to stay put during dancing and moving around.
For younger girls in the smaller sizes, the bodice structure is typically all that is needed. For girls in sizes 12 through 16 who want a little extra security, a strapless adhesive bra or a seamless bandeau in a matching nude or champagne beige tone works well under the sweetheart neckline without showing. Avoid thick padded styles that add bulk under the fitted appliqué bodice — they can distort the silhouette.
The lace-up corset back is a big advantage here: it lets you tighten or loosen the bodice on the day of the event, so if the fit is slightly off after a growth spurt or the dress was sized up for comfort, you can cinch it in for a snug, secure feel. This also means the dress does not rely on undergarments to stay in place — the lacing does the work.
For the skirt, standard cotton underwear works fine. The glitter tulle is not scratchy on its own, but if your daughter is sensitive to texture, a soft slip or bike shorts underneath the skirt are comfortable options that also make movement easier.
One practical note: if the event involves a lot of sitting, the full ballgown skirt will puff up around her. That is normal for a ballgown and part of the look — just make sure seating at the venue accommodates a full skirt. For photos, the skirt settles beautifully and photographs with great volume and dimension under any light.
Bella Princess C337 is designed specifically for children's formal celebrations — it is a mini quinceañera gown, which means it is built for the little girls who are part of a mini quince court, the birthday girl at a mini quince event, or any child attending a formal party where she needs a full ballgown.
The most common use cases for this dress are: a mini quinceañera (a quinceañera-style party held for a younger girl, typically ages 3 through 10); a chambelanes or chambelanas presentation where little sisters or cousins are part of the court and need a matching or complementary gown; a daddy-daughter dance or formal; a children's pageant or beauty competition; and any formal children's event — a holiday formal celebration, a first communion reception, or a school formal for younger grades.
The dress is sized 2 through 16, which covers roughly ages 2 to 14 depending on your daughter's measurements. The silhouette — a full glitter tulle ballgown with a beaded appliqué bodice — reads as formal and special-occasion, so it fits anywhere a full gown is appropriate.
The scale of the gown and the sizing are specifically for younger girls.
The Champagne and Lilac colorways photograph beautifully alongside white and blush main gowns, and the Green works well as a court color accent.
Bella Princess C337 is a full-length ballgown sized for children from size 2 through size 16. Because the skirt is full glitter tulle, hemming it at a local tailor is straightforward — a tailor familiar with tulle layering can shorten the skirt without losing its volume. Plan for the hem to be done after final shoes are chosen, since the floor-length skirt length will depend on the heel height your daughter is wearing.
For sizing, measure your daughter's bust, waist, and hips and compare against the designer's size chart. The lace-up corset back gives you roughly one to two sizes of adjustment at the waist, so if she is between sizes, it is generally better to size up and lace the back in rather than size down and risk the bodice being too tight. The boned bodice does not stretch, so the bust measurement is the most critical number to get right.
If your daughter is on the taller side for her size, ordering a size up and hemming the length is a common approach and works well with a tulle skirt. The beaded appliqués on the bodice are typically not altered — keep the bodice size accurate to her measurements and adjust only the hem if needed.
For the most accurate fit advice for your daughter's specific measurements, reach out to the Marlas team before ordering. Every Bella Princess C337 order is hand-inspected before shipping so the fit and finish arrive flawless. Popular colorways of the Bella Princess C337 sell out quickly each season, so early orders get first pick. Orders ship from Los Angeles, New York, or Toronto in 7 to 12 business days, with rush options available. Store credit from Marlas Fashions never expires, so an exchange or return never leaves you out of pocket. If you are between sizes on the Bella Princess C337, send our team your measurements before ordering and we will advise. Our stylists fit the Bella Princess C337 in the boutique every week and know exactly how it runs.
Yes — Bella Princess C337 is built to be worn by an active child at a formal celebration. The glitter tulle skirt is light and moves freely, so dancing, walking, and running around with other children in the court is not restricted by the skirt. The thin double straps hold the sweetheart bodice securely, so she does not need to hold up the dress while moving.
The boned bodice is structured, which means it holds its shape but also holds her in — some children find boned bodices feel stiff at first, so having her try it on and move around before the event is a good idea. The lace-up corset back should be tied snugly but not uncomfortably tight; there should be room for a full breath.
The glitter tulle fabric is soft against the skin, though very sensitive children may prefer to wear a thin slip underneath. The full skirt volume means she will have plenty of room to move her legs freely.
For a multi-hour event, the most important factor is making sure the bodice fit is correct before the day — a bodice that is too tight becomes uncomfortable quickly, and one that is too loose will shift. The corset lacing makes on-the-day adjustments easy, which is a real advantage for children whose measurements can change between ordering and the event.
The Champagne colorway of Bella Princess C337 reads as a warm, soft golden-ivory in person — it is not stark white and not yellow. Under ballroom or event lighting it picks up warm golden tones, which makes it photograph beautifully. It is a versatile neutral that coordinates with most court color schemes.
Green is a richer, more saturated tone — it reads as a full, vivid green rather than mint or sage. It works well as a statement court color. Note that Green is not photographed on the site, so the product images you see are in Champagne and Lilac.
Lilac is a soft, cool purple with a slightly dusty quality — it is not bright violet and not pale lavender. Under warm lighting it can read slightly warmer; under cool or daylight it stays a soft purple.
When choosing between the three: if the quinceañera or event already has a defined color palette, pick the closest match and confirm with the event coordinator. If you are building the court look from scratch, Champagne is the most neutral and easiest to coordinate. If you need help matching any of the colorways to a larger gown or a court palette, the Marlas team can help you compare options before you order.
After the event, spot-clean any marks on the glitter tulle or the beaded appliqué bodice with a damp cloth and mild detergent — do not rub the appliqués aggressively, as the beading can loosen with rough handling. For a full clean, professional dry cleaning is recommended for a beaded, structured ballgown like this one.
For storage, hang the dress on a padded hanger or store it flat in a breathable garment bag — not a plastic bag, which traps moisture. The full tulle skirt holds its volume best when it is not compressed for a long period, so hanging is preferable to folding.
For travel, the most practical approach is to fold the skirt loosely and pack it in a large garment bag carried on the plane if possible, rather than checked luggage. Tulle recovers well from light crushing — hang the dress on arrival and any compression wrinkles will fall out on their own within a few hours. The boned bodice should be packed so that it is not bent or folded at the waist seam.
For shoes, dressy flats or low heels in metallic gold, silver, or a tone that matches the dress colorway work beautifully with a children's ballgown. Mary-Jane style flats in satin or patent finish are a popular choice for younger girls because they are comfortable for dancing. Avoid very high heels — the floor-length skirt means shoe height affects the hem length, and comfort matters for a child at a long event.
For accessories, the beaded appliqué bodice is already detailed, so jewelry can be kept simple — small pearl or crystal stud earrings and a delicate bracelet are enough. A tiara or floral hair piece works well with a quinceañera or formal children's event. Avoid large statement necklaces that compete with the sweetheart neckline detail.
If you have seen the matching glitter cape in the photos — it is sold separately and is not included with the dress. The cape adds a dramatic full-length look for the entrance and can be removed for dancing. Ask our team about availability in matching colorways.
