FAQs

Is this dress suitable for outdoor weddings?

Yes, the midi length and velvet construction are well-suited for formal outdoor events in autumn or winter.

Can the ribbon straps be removed?

No, the ribbons are part of the structural tie-shoulder design and should not be removed.

How should I store this dress?

Use a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the velvet color and texture.

Does the velvet material stretch?

The dress is designed to skim the figure rather than cling, so it provides limited stretch compared to jersey fabrics.

What shoes pair best with this dress?

Classic heels or sleek pointed-toe pumps complement the refined, formal aesthetic of this midi dress.

Is the lace hem delicate?

Yes, the scalloped lace hem is delicate and should be handled with care to avoid snagging on jewelry or furniture.

Troubleshooting

Ribbons slipping or coming undone

Double-knot the satin ribbons to ensure they remain secure while wearing.

Velvet appearing crushed or flat

Lightly steam the garment from the inside or use a soft velvet brush to gently lift the fibers.

Difficulty with fit around the shoulders

Adjust the tie straps to redistribute tension across the bodice for a more comfortable fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Coast dress in pristine condition, avoid contact with abrasive surfaces that could damage the velvet nap. Since this garment features delicate lace and velvet, it is highly recommended to follow the care label strictly—typically involving professional dry cleaning or careful hand-washing in cool water. When storing, hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation and cover it with a breathable garment bag to avoid dust accumulation. To refresh the velvet pile between wears, use a soft garment brush in the direction of the nap.
