Coast Women's Applique Belted Long Sleeve Shirt Midi Dress in Navy | Size: 10

Large-scale floral appliqu is layered over a sheer mesh bodice and sleeves, creating a dimensional, sculptural quality that catches the light as the dress moves. The structured midi skirt features a solid contrast border at the hem, giving the silhouette a deliberate, architectural finish that anchors the delicate embroidery above. A self-covered belt sits at the natural waist, cinching the silhouette cleanly without competing with the intricate surface detail of the skirt. The high collar fastens with a column of covered buttons down the centre front - a refined detail that reads as polished rather than prim. Long sheer sleeves with solid cuffs strike a considered balance: formal enough for the occasion, with just enough transparency to keep the look from feeling heavy. A summer wedding or a day at the races demands something that holds its own without looking overdressed - this dress manages exactly that. The full midi skirt has real volume when you walk, swinging out from the waist
