While the dress is specifically proportioned for a petite frame, those of average height may find the fit different, particularly regarding the waist placement.
The dress features a button placket at the bodice and is designed to fit the silhouette of a size 6, utilizing integrated closures typical of structured dresses.
Due to the unique structured collar, it is recommended to opt for statement earrings instead of a necklace to avoid overcrowding the neckline.
The organza construction is designed with formal wear in mind and includes necessary layering to ensure opacity while maintaining the signature structured look.
Hang the dress in a long, breathable garment bag. Avoid packing it in a suitcase, as the organza pleats are susceptible to permanent creasing.
Use a professional garment steamer on a low setting from a distance, or allow the dress to hang in a bathroom while a hot shower runs to gently release creases.
Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who specializes in formal wear to have the pleats reset correctly.
To ensure your Karen Millen dress retains its structure, it is recommended to hang the garment in a cool, dry place using a sturdy hanger that supports the shoulder structure. Due to the delicate nature of organza, avoid folding or crushing the skirt. If the dress requires cleaning, utilize professional dry cleaning services only; do not attempt to wash or iron the organza pleats yourself, as excessive heat or water exposure can permanently alter the fabric's finish. When transporting the dress for an event, use a breathable garment bag to protect the pleats from flattening.
