Clarissa | Ruched Bust Corset Midi Dress
Clarissa | Ruched Bust Corset Midi Dress
Corset Midi Dress for Wedding Guests, Date Nights and Holidays
Clarissa is a fitted corset midi dress with a softly ruched sweetheart bust, a delicate tie at the centre and a full, flared skirt that moves beautifully as you walk. Seamed panels shape the bodice for a sculpted waist, while a slit at the front of the skirt adds a flash of leg. Wear it as a wedding guest dress, for a date night or on holiday evenings, and dress it up or down to suit the occasion.

Styling Tips

Care
Treat gently: cool hand wash or delicate machine cycle, reshape and dry flat or hang to dry. Please check the care label before washing.
Size & Fit
The bodice is designed to sit close to the body for a defined waist, while the skirt is generous and flowing. If you are between sizes or prefer a little more room through the bust and waist, we suggest sizing up.

Good to know
- Colour: colours can look slightly different depending on lighting and your screen settings.
- Measurements: sizes are measured by hand, so small differences of 1–3 cm are possible.
- Creases from shipping: light creases from packaging fall out after a day on a hanger or with a little steam.
