Product Information
Full details
The Coast Pleated Wrap Dress is an elegant satin garment designed for adults attending weddings, formal events, or occasions where a sophisticated, polished silhouette is desired. Its primary benefit is the dynamic movement provided by sunburst pleating, which creates a flattering drape; however, wearers should note that the satin material requires careful maintenance to preserve its light-catching finish. This midi-length dress combines a classic wrap neckline with structured blouson sleeves for a refined look that transitions seamlessly from ceremony to reception.

FAQs
How do I care for the satin fabric?
Professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to protect the integrity of the pleats and the sheen of the satin.
Is this dress suitable for petite frames?
Yes, the midi hemline is specifically proportioned to provide a balanced look for petite frames without overwhelming them.
Can I iron the pleats?
It is not recommended to iron the pleated sections directly, as heat and pressure can permanently damage the pleats. Use a professional garment steamer from a safe distance if needed.
What kind of undergarments work best?
Seamless, nude-tone undergarments are recommended given the smooth nature of the satin fabric.
How should I store the dress long-term?
Store in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry place, ensuring the dress is hanging freely without being crushed by other items in the closet.
Troubleshooting
Pleats becoming flattened
Avoid folding the dress for storage; always hang it vertically on a wide hanger to allow the pleats to hang naturally.
Wrap neckline feeling too loose
Consider using a small, discreet fashion safety pin on the inside of the V-neck to secure the crossover point.
Static cling
Lightly mist the inner lining with a fabric anti-static spray, keeping the spray at least 12 inches away from the satin exterior.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, adjust the self-tie bow at the hip to your preferred tightness upon putting the garment on. Because this is a wrap dress, ensure the internal button or hook-and-eye closure is fully secured before cinching the exterior tie. Given the delicate nature of the pleated satin, it is recommended to have the dress dry cleaned rather than washed at home to prevent flattening the pleats or damaging the finish. When storing, hang the dress on a padded hanger to avoid creases at the shoulder and store in a garment bag to prevent dust accumulation or fabric snagging.
