FAQs
Is the fabric stretchy?
The dress is made of structured satin, which offers limited stretch to ensure the tailored, fitted look of the bodice.
What is the best way to clean this dress?
We recommend professional dry cleaning to protect the delicate lace hem and the high-quality satin fabric.
Does it require a specific bra?
The boat neckline works well with most standard bras, but a strapless or convertible bra is recommended if you prefer a cleaner look at the shoulders.
Is the sizing consistent?
This dress is designed to follow standard UK dress sizing. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up due to the structured nature of the fabric.
Can I wear this to a graduation ceremony?
Yes, its sophisticated silhouette and formal length make it an excellent choice for graduations, weddings, and race days.
Troubleshooting
Visible creases upon unpacking
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom or use a handheld steamer from a distance to gently relax the fibers.
Lace hem snagging
Avoid contact with rough jewelry or textured handbags. If a snag occurs, use a small, sharp pair of embroidery scissors to carefully trim loose threads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Coast dress maintains its structural integrity and beauty, follow these guidelines:
- Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation and to keep the lace hem from wrinkling.
- Cleaning: Due to the satin finish and delicate lace hem, professional dry cleaning is recommended to avoid damaging the fabric fibers or the lace structure.
- Compatibility: The blue hue of the dress pairs exceptionally well with silver or metallic accessories. Given the boat neckline, opt for updos or swept-back hairstyles to fully showcase the shoulder detailing.
- Wrinkle Management: Use a garment steamer on the lowest setting, keeping the nozzle a few inches away from the satin to prevent heat damage.
