  • Cut from structured recycled crepe that holds a clean line
  • Midi length that falls to mid-calf
  • Fully lined and opaque, with French-finished inner seams
  • Concealed closure and a clean, uninterrupted silhouette

The Marcella is a midi cap-sleeve crepe midi dress from the Faustina collection — a dress conceived in Rome for daytime, garden parties and the warmer months. The cap-sleeve crepe midi is cut from structured recycled crepe that holds a clean line, fully lined so it reads opaque in daylight and flash alike.

Like every Hugo Caesar Tassi piece, the Marcella is finished by hand: a concealed closure, real linings, and seams sewn to last. It is offered in 3 colors from the imperial palette — Verde Antico, Cornelia, Avorio — and built to be worn for years, not a single season.

True to size. The Marcella runs true through the waist and skirt. Between sizes? The bodice is cut close, so size up for a fuller bust.

Complimentary express shipping worldwide; dispatched within 1–2 business days from Rome, import duties included. Most orders arrive in 3–6 business days.

30-day returns on unworn items with tags attached. Each piece arrives in a porphyry box with the HCT seal.

For daytime, pair the Marcella in Verde Antico with fine-gold jewelry and a barely-there heel. Add the Faustina silk scarf at the neck or wrist to complete the look.

Notes from the Atelier

A Roman idea, cut for daytime

The Marcella takes the discipline of classical dress — line, proportion, restraint — and reads it as a modern midi dress for daytime, garden parties and the warmer months.

Part of the Faustina collection, the Marcella is built around structured recycled crepe that holds a clean line. The crepe falls to mid-calf, fully lined and finished so it photographs as beautifully as it moves.

Offered in the imperial palette — Verde Antico, Cornelia, Avorio — it is a dress designed to be kept and returned to, not discarded with the season.

Why she'll wear it again

Considered inside. Real linings, French-finished seams and a concealed closure — the details you feel before you see.

Made to last. Crepe chosen for the way it holds its shape, so the Marcella keeps its line through a long evening.

Made responsibly. Cut from recycled fabric and produced ethically — a lighter footprint, an heirloom result.

A new favorite

The crepe is gorgeous and the Verde Antico is even richer in person. I wore the Marcella to an evening event and felt wonderful — fully lined, no slip needed.

So well made

Exactly as pictured and beautifully finished inside. The Marcella holds its line all evening and the color is a grown-up, elegant verde antico.

Beautiful — size up if busty

Lovely dress and excellent quality for the price. Runs true through the waist; the bodice is a touch fitted, so size up if you're fuller in the bust.

Questions & Answers

Answered by the Hugo Caesar Tassi atelier

Q
Is the crepe see-through?
A

It's fully lined and completely opaque — no slip required. Only the lightest details are very slightly sheer, by design.

HCT Atelier · Verified · 1 month ago ·
Q
Does it run true to size?
A

True to size through the waist and skirt. The bodice is tailored, so size up if you're fuller in the bust. See the size guide for exact measurements.

HCT Atelier · Verified · 3 weeks ago ·
Q
Is the Marcella suitable for daytime events?
A

Very much so — it was designed for daytime, garden parties and the warmer months. Verde Antico and the deeper tones read beautifully after dark; the lighter colors suit daytime.
