Styling, Sizing & Care
Styling Suggestions
To achieve a red-carpet-worthy look, complement this showstopping piece with:
- Footwear: Strappy metallic heels will elevate the ensemble and maintain an elegant line.
- Accessories: A sleek clutch bag will provide practicality without detracting from the dress.
- Jewelry: Opt for minimalist jewelry, such as stud earrings or a delicate bracelet, to let the dress's intricate details shine.
- Hair: An updo or sleek hairstyle will highlight the one-shoulder design and cape.
Sizing Information
This particular variant is a UK Size 10. Always refer to Coast's official size guide to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary. The dress features a figure-hugging silhouette, so accurate measurements are key for comfort and appearance.
Care Instructions
Due to the delicate lace overlay, shimmering sequins, and linen base, proper care is essential to maintain the dress's integrity and beauty.
- Cleaning: It is highly recommended to dry clean only or hand wash very gently in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing to protect the sequins and lace from damage.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry on a clean towel or hang on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing/Steaming: Use a garment steamer on a low setting from a distance, or iron on the reverse side with a very cool iron, placing a cloth between the iron and the fabric, specifically avoiding the sequined areas. High heat can damage sequins.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a garment bag to protect it from snags, dust, and light, preserving its shape and embellishments.
