FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, races, graduations, formal parties, and elegant evening events.
How should I clean the dress?
We recommend hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing and wringing. Lay flat to air dry and use a cool iron or steamer if needed.
Can I wear this dress for a casual event?
Due to its intricate lace detailing and sophisticated design, this dress is primarily suited for formal occasions. It can be dressed down slightly with different accessories, but its inherent elegance leans towards dressier events.
What type of undergarments are best with this dress?
Consider seamless undergarments in a nude or matching color to maintain a smooth silhouette beneath the delicate lace. A strapless or convertible bra may be beneficial depending on your comfort and the neckline.

Generally, Coast dresses aim for true-to-size fits. However, for the most accurate sizing, please refer to the brand's specific size chart available on their website or retailer's page.
What is the return policy for this item?
Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the seller from whom you purchased the dress.
Is the lace fabric stretchy?
The lace overlay itself typically has minimal stretch. The garment's fit will depend on the underlying fabric and cut. Refer to the product description for details on material composition.
Troubleshooting
Lace snagging or pulling
Handle the dress with care. Avoid contact with rough surfaces. If a small snag occurs, attempt to gently tease the threads back into place with a fine needle. For more significant damage, professional repair may be necessary.
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period to allow wrinkles to fall out. Alternatively, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric or a garment steamer on a low setting.
Color transfer from lace to collar
Ensure the dress is completely dry before wearing or storing. If color transfer occurs, follow the recommended washing instructions immediately.

Care Instructions:
Given the delicate nature of the lace and fabric, careful attention to care is essential to maintain the dress's exquisite appearance:
- Washing: Hand wash is recommended using a mild detergent in cool water. Avoid machine washing to prevent damage to the lace.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water, do not wring. Lay flat on a clean towel to air dry, away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron setting. If ironing is necessary, it is best done on the reverse side of the fabric. Alternatively, steaming is a safer option for delicate lace.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape and prevent creasing. Avoid overcrowding your wardrobe to protect the delicate material.
