This dress features a structured cut, so it is generally recommended to size up if you prefer a less restrictive fit, especially around the torso.
It is not recommended to iron the pleated sections as the heat can permanently flatten the pleats. Steaming is the preferred method for removing wrinkles.
The material is chosen for its drape and finish, making it best suited for indoor formal events rather than high-exertion outdoor activities.
Hang the dress upright in a garment bag to keep it free from dust and prevent the fabric from getting crushed by other items in your closet.
Heeled sandals or pointed-toe pumps complement the midi length perfectly, helping to elongate the leg and emphasize the sophisticated cut of the dress.
Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for a short period to allow the weight of the fabric to relax the pleats back into their original alignment.
Use a garment steamer on a low heat setting, keeping the nozzle at least six inches away from the fabric to avoid flattening the pleats.
To ensure your Coast dress remains in optimal condition, storage is critical. Always hang the dress on a high-quality padded hanger to prevent the shoulder area from distorting and to allow the pleats to hang vertically. Avoid folding the dress for long-term storage, as this can permanently flatten the pleats. If the fabric becomes wrinkled, use a handheld steamer from a distance rather than a direct iron, as high heat can damage the pleated texture. For cleaning, check the interior garment tag for specific care instructions; generally, professional dry cleaning is the safest method to protect the delicate pleats and maintain the fabric's original sheen.
