FAQs
What size should I order?
We recommend referring to the specific Coast brand size chart for accurate measurements. If you are between sizes, consider your bust and waist measurements relative to the structured bodice for the best fit.
Can this dress be altered?
Yes, the length of the dress can typically be professionally altered to suit your height and chosen heels. For other alterations, consult a skilled seamstress to ensure the dress's elegant design integrity is maintained.
Is the bow detail removable?
No, the bow detail is an integral part of the dress's design and is typically sewn into the garment for a structured and cohesive look.
What type of shoes are recommended with this maxi dress?
Delicate metallic heels or other formal, elegant footwear are recommended to complement the floor-length design and enhance the dress's sophisticated aesthetic.
Is this dress suitable for other formal occasions beyond a bridal party?
Absolutely. While perfect for bridesmaids, its timeless elegance and formal design make it an excellent choice for galas, sophisticated dinners, or other black-tie events.
How should I store the dress when not in use?
Store the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag. This helps protect the fabric, maintain its shape, and prevent creasing and dust accumulation.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled upon arrival or after storage.
Hang the dress immediately on a padded hanger. For stubborn wrinkles, use a garment steamer or iron on a very low heat setting from the inside out, using a pressing cloth if necessary. Allow ample time for wrinkles to relax.
The bow detail does not sit symmetrically or looks flattened.
Gently manipulate and fluff the bow by hand to restore its shape and ensure it lies flat and symmetrically at the waist. Avoid pulling or twisting the fabric around it.
The dress feels too long, even with heels.
For a perfect floor-length fit with your chosen footwear, consider professional alterations. A skilled tailor can hem the dress while preserving its flowing silhouette.
Fabric snags or pulls easily.
Crepe fabric can be delicate. Be mindful of rough surfaces, sharp objects, and abrasive jewelry. Store the dress carefully to prevent contact with items that could cause snags.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
This dress requires no complex setup. Simply put on and adjust for comfort. Upon arrival, hang the dress immediately to allow any travel-induced creases to naturally fall out.
Compatibility
- Footwear: Best paired with delicate metallic heels or other elegant formal shoes to achieve the ideal floor-length drape.
- Accessories: Complement with understated jewelry such as pearl earrings, a fine bracelet, or a simple necklace. Avoid overly ornate or bulky pieces to maintain the dress's sophisticated simplicity.
- Occasions: Primarily designed for bridal party roles (e.g., bridesmaid), but also suitable for other formal events like galas, black-tie dinners, or sophisticated parties where an elegant, floor-length gown is appropriate.
- Hair Styling: Often recommended with sleek, swept-back hair to highlight the square neckline and structured bodice.
Care
- Material: Made from Polyester.
- Washing: It is recommended to follow the care label precisely. Typically, gentle machine wash cold with similar colors or professional dry cleaning is advised to preserve the fabric's integrity and drape.
- Drying: Hang to dry in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight which can affect color. Do not tumble dry.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting from the inside out. Using a steamer is often preferred to gently remove wrinkles without direct contact.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect the fabric and maintain the dress's shape and prevent creasing.
