FAQs

Is this dress suitable for a black tie wedding?

Yes, the floor-sweeping cape and sequin detailing are designed specifically for black tie and formal evening dress codes.

Can I wash this in a washing machine?

No, this dress should only be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the integrity of the lace and the sequin embellishments.

How does the size 8 fit?

The dress is designed to skim the silhouette in a column cut; for specific fit questions, please refer to the standard Coast size guide for UK 8.

Are there other sizes available?

Yes, this model is available in a range of sizes from UK 8 to UK 16.

Does the cape sleeve restrict arm movement?

The sleeves are designed to flow from the shoulders, allowing for reasonable range of motion, though they are primarily aesthetic rather than functional sleeves.

Troubleshooting

Hem is too long

Take the dress to a professional tailor who specializes in beaded or formal evening wear for hemming to ensure the intricate lace and sequins are handled correctly.

Sequins becoming snagged

Do not pull on the thread. Carefully maneuver the snagged sequin loose or take it to a professional dry cleaner who can safely repair the beadwork.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking, unique silhouette created by flowing cape sleeves
  • High-glamour aesthetic due to all-over sequin lace
  • Flattering, elongated column fit suitable for various formal heights
  • Fully lined interior ensures comfort for long-duration wear

Cons

  • Requires professional dry cleaning to protect sequins
  • Floor-length design may require hemming for shorter individuals
  • The delicate nature of the sequins requires careful handling to avoid snagging

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your dress in optimal condition, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended due to the delicate sequin application. When storing, ensure the dress is hung on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion from the weight of the cape sleeves. Avoid hanging it near sharp objects or jewelry that could snag the lace or displace the sequins. Before your event, steam the garment lightly if wrinkles appear from storage, keeping the steamer at a safe distance to avoid damaging the sequins with direct heat.
