Long Sleeve Sequin Maxi Dress - UK 14

This dress is perfect for formal events such as black-tie events, evening galas, wedding receptions, and other special evening celebrations where you want to make an elegant statement.

Due to the dress's striking nature, minimal accessories are best. Delicate drop earrings and a sleek clutch will complement the look without overpowering the intricate sequin detailing. Avoid chunky or overly busy jewelry.

Yes, the long sleeves provide sophisticated coverage suitable for cooler evenings, and it can be paired with a tailored evening coat for added warmth, making it versatile across seasons for indoor formal events.

Strappy heeled sandals are recommended. They enhance the elegant, floor-sweeping silhouette and help prevent the hem from dragging, ensuring graceful movement.

The description mentions a 'semi-sheer overlay creates a captivating contrast against the lining,' indicating that it is lined, though parts might have a semi-sheer effect for design.

> Info needed: The primary material is not specified for this specific variant, but one variant mentions 'Polyester'. Please check the product label for precise material composition for your specific dress.

Sequins can be delicate. Handle the dress with care. Avoid harsh scrubbing or rubbing during wear or cleaning. If a few sequins come loose, it's often a natural occurrence for heavily embellished items. For significant loss, professional repair might be needed.

Due to the delicate nature of sequins, direct high heat from an iron can damage them. Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom or use a garment steamer on a very low setting, keeping it at a safe distance from the fabric. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK dress size. Refer to Coast's specific size guide if available. If the fit is significantly off, consider professional alterations for minor adjustments, being mindful of the sequin detailing.

While the semi-sheer overlay and lining are designed for comfort, some individuals may be sensitive to the texture of sequins. Wearing appropriate undergarments or a very thin slip underneath may help create a barrier, if not already fully lined.
