FAQs
Is this dress suitable for a destination wedding?
Yes, the ponte fabric is relatively resilient compared to silk or heavy lace, making it a practical choice for travel.
Does the dress have a built-in bra?
The dress does not include a built-in bra; it is recommended to wear a strapless adhesive bra or a bustier for the best support under the bardot neckline.
What kind of shoes match this dress?
Strappy heels or elegant block-heeled sandals complement the maxi length and bardot neckline perfectly.
Is the cream colour very sheer?
The high-quality ponte fabric is opaque and designed to provide full coverage.
Can I machine wash this dress?
It is highly recommended to stick to dry cleaning to preserve the structure and colour of the ponte fabric.
How do I know if the petite size is right for me?
Petite sizing at Coast is generally designed for women 5'3" and under. If you are taller, the proportions of the bodice and waist may not sit correctly on your frame.
Troubleshooting
Neckline feels too tight or restricted
Ensure the bodice is sitting at the natural waistline; if the issue persists, the dress may need minor adjustments to the shoulder tension.
Fabric shows minor wrinkles from storage
Use a handheld steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the fabric to gently release creases.
Hem dragging on the ground
If the length exceeds your needs even with your chosen wedding shoes, consult a professional tailor to have the hem professionally raised while maintaining the original maxi silhouette.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in perfect condition, proper care is essential:
- Storage: Hang the dress in a breathable garment bag to prevent dust accumulation and fabric snagging. Use padded hangers to maintain the shape of the bardot shoulders.
- Cleaning: Due to the nature of ponte fabric, dry cleaning is strongly recommended to maintain the integrity of the material and the fit of the dress.
- Compatibility: The neutral cream tone pairs well with metallic accents like gold or rose gold jewelry, and works beautifully with minimalist bridal veils or hair accessories.
- Travel: If transporting for a destination wedding, hang the dress immediately upon arrival to allow any minor transit wrinkles to release naturally.
