Full details

This Coast Lisa Floral Printed Lace Trim Pleated Midi Dress in Sage, size 18, is designed for adult females seeking elegant occasion wear. Its key benefit is the sophisticated blend of floral print, lace detailing, and a flattering pleated skirt for graceful movement.

FAQs

What occasions is this dress most suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, races, garden parties, and other celebratory occasions where elegant attire is appropriate.

What type of undergarments should I wear?

Seamless and neutral-colored undergarments are recommended to avoid showing through the fabric, especially given the delicate nature of the lace detailing.

How should I store this dress?

Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape, or fold it carefully in a breathable garment bag. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Can I machine wash this dress?

While it's best to check the specific care label, dresses with lace and delicate prints often recommend dry cleaning or a very gentle hand wash in cool water to preserve the fabric and details.

What accessories complement this dress?

Strappy heels, block heels, espadrilles, elegant flats, a tailored blazer, clutch bags, and understated jewelry like delicate necklaces or earrings would pair well.

Is this dress suitable for petite frames?

Yes, this dress is specifically designed with a petite fit, meaning it is proportioned for individuals with a shorter stature.

What is the return policy for this item?

Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details on returns and exchanges, as this can vary.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes, or use a cool iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth. Ensure the dress is fully dry before storing.

Lace trim appears snagged or damaged

Gently try to detangle any snags. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or seamstress for repair. Avoid catching the lace on rough surfaces.

Color fading over time

Follow care instructions diligently, opting for cold water washes and avoiding direct sunlight during drying. Consider storing the dress in a garment bag away from light.

Fit is slightly off despite being size 18

As this is a petite fit, subtle alterations may be needed for perfect tailoring. Consult a professional seamstress for adjustments to length or bodice if required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This garment is a finished dress and requires no setup. Simply try it on to ensure fit.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Designed as a petite fit, specifically for Size 18. Please refer to Coast's sizing chart for detailed measurements.
  • Styling: Pairs well with heels (strappy, block, or wedges), elegant flats, tailored blazers, and formal outerwear. Accessories such as hats, fascinators, clutch bags, and subtle jewelry complement the dress.

Care Instructions:

  • Material: Primarily Linen blend with lace detailing. Always check the care label on the garment for the most accurate instructions.
  • Washing: Typically, garments with delicate lace and floral prints of this nature are recommended for dry cleaning to maintain fabric integrity and color vibrancy. If machine washing is an option, use a very gentle, cool cycle with similar colors and a mild detergent. Hand washing in cool water is often the safest method.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Lay the dress flat on a clean towel or drying rack, reshaping gently while damp, and allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
  • Ironing: Use a cool iron setting. Iron the dress inside out, especially over the lace areas, to prevent damage. A pressing cloth can be used for added protection.
