Designed specifically for the petite frame, this Coast high neck maxi dress is perfect for formal occasions such as black-tie weddings or evening galas where a polished, sophisticated silhouette is required. Featuring a velvet base adorned with scattered sequins, it offers a rich, light-catching depth rather than an overtly sparkly aesthetic; however, the sleeveless, backless design means it is best suited for indoor events or warmer evenings where outerwear is not required.

This piece is specifically cut for a petite frame with calibrated proportions. While it may fit, the bodice and skirt length are designed to accommodate shorter silhouettes.
Due to the backless and halterneck construction, an adhesive backless bra or silicone cups are recommended for a seamless look.
No. Due to the delicate sequin application and velvet fabric, it should only be professionally dry cleaned.
The halterneck detail is a statement feature itself; we recommend keeping accessories minimal, such as simple drop earrings, to allow the dress to remain the focus.
The dress comes in a deep, rich purple velvet base.
The dress is designed to skim the hips and flare at the hem, allowing for fluid, easy movement that doesn't require constant adjustment.
Ensure your jewelry is smooth and avoid wearing accessories with sharp, prong-set stones near the bodice.
Visit a professional tailor to have the hem adjusted to your specific heel height to prevent tripping and fabric fraying.
Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom (without direct water contact) to allow the weight of the fabric and the steam to release minor wrinkles.
As this garment features a delicate sequin-on-velvet construction, it should be treated with care to preserve the integrity of the embellishments. To maintain the fit, avoid heavy bags or jewelry with sharp edges that could snag the sequin threads. When not in use, store the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to prevent the velvet from crushing. For cleaning, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent damage to the sequin application and to maintain the drape of the fabric. Always verify the fit with your chosen footwear before any necessary professional alterations to ensure the skirt hits at the correct floor length.
