Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress - Purple - UK 10

This dress is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, black-tie events, gala dinners, formal parties, and race days. Its elegant design makes it perfect for any event where sophistication is desired.

The dress uses UK sizing. It's recommended to refer to Coast's specific size chart, taking your bust, waist, and hip measurements to ensure the best fit, especially for the fitted bodice.

Strappy metallic heels or other elegant, high heels are recommended. This will ensure the floor-sweeping length drapes beautifully and prevents the hem from dragging.

No, the dramatic cape sleeves are an integrated part of the dress's design and are not detachable.

Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid folding it tightly for long periods. If possible, keep it in a garment bag to protect the fabric and minimize dust.

The crepe fabric is versatile. While it's generally suitable for spring and summer formal events, it can also be worn in cooler seasons by pairing it with an elegant pashmina or wrap.

Gently steam the dress or iron on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth to smooth out wrinkles. Hanging it in a steamy bathroom can also help.

Consult the size guide if you haven't already. If the issue persists, professional tailoring can often adjust the bodice for a more custom fit.

Do not cut the loose thread. Gently push the thread back into the fabric from the reverse side using a small needle or specialized tool. For significant snags, professional repair may be necessary.

Act quickly. Spot clean immediately with a gentle fabric cleaner suitable for polyester crepe. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh rubbing.
