Product Information

Full details

This Coast Midi Dress is designed for the adult female seeking a sophisticated and attention-grabbing outfit for distinguished occasions. Its key benefit lies in the striking sculptural floral appliqué that creates a bold, three-dimensional statement. A potential caveat is that the dress's dramatic design may be best suited for formal events rather than casual wear. Key features include a satin fabric with a lustrous finish, a sleek square neckline, midi length with a flared fishtail hem, and a front split for graceful movement. The dress is fully lined for comfort and comes in a size 16 with a floral pattern.

FAQs

What type of occasion is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for distinguished occasions such as formal weddings, garden parties, races days, and black-tie events due to its striking design and luxurious satin fabric.

How should I care for the satin fabric and floral appliqué?

We recommend dry cleaning only for this dress to preserve the quality of the satin and the structure of the appliqué. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse side, avoiding the appliqué.

Does the dress come in other sizes or colours?

This particular listing is for the black floral satin midi dress in size 16. The Coast Structured Satin Floral Detail Midi Dress is available in other sizes and colours, such as beige.

What kind of undergarments are recommended?

Given the sleek silhouette and satin fabric, seamless undergarments are recommended to maintain a smooth appearance. Consider a strapless bra or adhesive bra depending on your preference and the neckline fit.

Can the front split be adjusted?

The front split is a design feature and is not adjustable. It is intended to provide graceful movement.

How should I store this dress?

Store the dress on a padded hanger to help maintain its shape and prevent creasing, especially around the bodice and floral details. Keep it in a garment bag if possible, away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased

Gently steam the reverse side of the dress on a cool setting. Avoid direct contact with the floral appliqué. Professional dry cleaning can also help remove stubborn creases.

Floral appliqué losing its shape

Ensure the dress is stored on a suitable hanger to maintain its form. Avoid pressing directly on the appliqué when ironing. If the issue persists, consult a professional garment care specialist.

Satin fabric snagged

Minor snags can sometimes be carefully pulled from the reverse side. For significant snags, professional repair or alteration services may be required. Avoid exposing the dress to rough surfaces.
