FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

It is perfectly suited for weddings, race days, garden parties, and other distinguished formal or semi-formal daytime events.

How does the dress fit?

The dress features a structured, tailored bodice with a belted waist. It generally aligns with standard UK sizing, fitting close to the bodice and flowing through the skirt.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Due to the delicate satin material and the ornate diamante buttons, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning only.

What shoes look best with this style?

Strappy heeled sandals are ideal as they complement the refined, modern aesthetic of the midi skirt.

Is the fabric stretchy?

The tweed bodice is designed for a structured, non-stretch finish, while the satin skirt is designed for a fluid, draped effect.

Does the belt come off?

The belt is designed to create a defined waistline for the silhouette; it is part of the garment's overall design structure.

Troubleshooting

Diamante button feels loose

Avoid pulling on the buttons; if loose, secure with a clear thread or consult a professional tailor.

Pleats losing definition

Steam lightly using a hand-held steamer from a distance; avoid direct contact with an iron as high heat can damage the satin fabric.

Belt slippage

Ensure the belt is securely buckled; if it continues to slip, a small invisible stitch at the side seam can help fix its position.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated contrast between textured tweed and smooth satin
  • Tailored silhouette achieved via the defined waist belt
  • High-neck design offers a modern, chic appearance
  • Detailed diamante buttons add luxury without being overwhelming

Cons

  • Sleeveless design may require layering in cooler weather
  • Requires careful cleaning due to delicate satin and diamante hardware
  • Limited stretch compared to jersey or knit alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Coast midi dress, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the structured bodice and avoid pulling at the shoulders.
  2. Cleaning: Given the combination of satin and embellished hardware, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent damage to the diamante settings and potential water spotting on the satin.
  3. Compatibility: This garment fits standard UK sizing. Ensure the belt is properly threaded and secured to maintain the intended tailored fit.
  4. Travel: If packing, lay the dress flat in a garment bag with tissue paper between the folds of the pleated skirt to minimize creasing.
