Petite 3D Corsage High Low Dress - Floral - UK 14

This is a Petite-sized dress, designed for shorter individuals. Always refer to the Coast brand's specific size chart, taking accurate measurements of your bust, waist, and hips. If you're between sizes, consider the slight stretch of the crepe fabric for comfort.

Yes, the sleek round neckline and standard shoulder design typically allow for a regular bra. However, for the most seamless look under the figure-flattering crepe fabric, consider a T-shirt bra or a bra with smooth cups.

No, the 3D corsage is an integrated, non-removable part of the dress's design. This is why delicate cleaning methods like hand washing or professional dry cleaning are crucial to protect it.

Due to the prominent 3D corsage, minimalist yet elegant accessories work best. Think delicate necklaces, statement earrings (balancing the neckline), a sleek clutch, and strappy heels. A fascinator is a great choice for race days.

Minor alterations, such as adjusting the hem or taking in the sides, are often possible with a skilled seamstress. However, altering the shoulder area or the placement of the 3D corsage could be more complex and may affect the design's integrity.

The dress is made from Polyester, which gives it its crepe texture, slight stretch, and flattering drape. Always refer to the product label for specific material breakdown.

Gently reshape the petals by hand. If needed, very carefully use a low-heat garment steamer, directing steam *around* the corsage (not directly on it) to help restore volume. For severe cases, consult a professional dry cleaner.

Use a garment steamer on a low setting, holding it a few inches away from the fabric. If ironing, use a very low temperature setting with a pressing cloth on the *inside* of the dress. Avoid direct contact with high heat, especially on the corsage.

Ensure the dress is hanging evenly on a padded hanger when not in use. When wearing, adjust the dress so the waistline sits comfortably at your natural waist, allowing the hem to fall as intended. Proper shoe height can also impact drape.

For snags, gently pull the fabric around the snag to loosen it, or carefully push the thread to the inside with a small needle. For loose threads, carefully snip them close to the fabric, but never pull them.
