Coast

I love Coast clothes and I was delighted to find that they have their own shop, after only ever knowing about them from Debenhams. My first ball gown was by Coast, and is still one of my favourites (well, you can never have too many ball gowns now can you?!). I find the sizes are a bit 'off’ - maybe it’s because I’m bigger below than on top, but I find my dress doesn’t stay up very well despite being the size I normally wear. Still, it came with a detachable halterneck strap - all situations covered. The quality is excellent - I’ve had it several years now without problems.

The only downside is that everything is so expensive! I would love to own so many things in here, but I really can’t justify it. Definitely worth checking out during the sales, but it’s worth getting there quickly, as I’m sure they’re popular!

This is really lovely women’s clothes shop on the high street. There is a small consession of Coast in Debenhams, but this store is much nicer andhas a better range. It sells beautiful dresses and outfits for special occasions, made out of lovely fabrics such as silk and dutchess satin in a great range of colours. It also sells shoes, jewelry and matching bags to many of the dresses so you can pick up a complete outfit. The dresses are not cheap, however they are really special, and the service from the staff is great. This is a fantastic place to pick up a special outfit for a wedding or a ball- you will be garanteed to look great!

Coast is a beautiful store, which sells some truly stunning clothes. They specialise in dresses, but also sell two piece outfits. There dresses are of superb quality, and really well made. The designs are original and the cut of the fabric is really good.
The staff are really friendly and helpful, and will always offer advice on what styles and colours best suit you.
They stock a good range of matching accessories- everything you could need from coats and cardigans to handbags and earrings!
The dresses themselves are breathtaking. I’ve bought several from Coast for balls and parties, and have never received so many compliments about my outfit! I felt like a princess! I really cannot recommend this shop highly enough. The clothes are expensive- a dress can cost between £120-£200, but they are absolutely worth it. The perfect place if you are looking for a special outfit for a ball or a wedding.
