Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Karen Millen dress in pristine condition, it is vital to follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Given the delicate nature of the taffeta material, this dress should be professionally dry cleaned. Avoid machine washing or hand washing, as this can destroy the sculptural volume of the shoulder panel.
- Storage: Hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulder detail. Avoid crowding it in the closet to prevent the taffeta from creasing.
- Preparation: Steam the garment lightly before wear if wrinkles appear. Use a low-heat setting on a garment steamer and keep distance from the fabric to avoid heat damage to the synthetic blend.
- Compatibility: This piece pairs best with classic stiletto heels or minimalist strappy sandals. Avoid heavy shawls or boleros that could compress the architectural shoulder detailing.
