Product Information

Full details

The Karen Millen Contrast Wave Knit Jacket is designed for the style-conscious adult looking to elevate their wardrobe with an artistic, statement piece. Its primary benefit is the combination of an elongating vertical wave knit pattern and sophisticated fringing, which provides both visual movement and a modern silhouette. However, users should note that the delicate fringing and structured knit material require specific care to maintain their appearance, making this better suited for deliberate styling rather than heavy daily wear.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for layering?

Yes, it pairs beautifully over a simple, fitted top. However, avoid wearing bulky layers underneath as the jacket is tailored for a structured silhouette.

Can I machine wash this garment?

No. Due to the delicate wave knit and fringing, professional dry cleaning is the safest way to maintain the product.

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The garment is constructed from high-quality knit material designed to hold its shape while providing an artistic texture.

Does the jacket fit true to size?

The jacket is designed with a structured fit. If you prefer more room for layering, you may want to compare your measurements against the size chart.

How do I prevent the fringe from pulling?

Be mindful of jewelry or bags with sharp edges, as these are the most common causes of snags on fringing details.

Troubleshooting

Fringing becoming tangled or messy

Gently smooth the fringe with your fingers after wear. Do not use a hard-bristled brush, which may pull at the delicate threads.

Small snags in the knit

Avoid pulling at the snag. Use a needle to carefully feed the loop back into the underside of the fabric.

Shoulder shape appearing flattened

Use a wide, padded hanger for storage to maintain the structural integrity of the sculpted shoulder pads.

Pros and Cons

  • Unique artistic wave knit pattern provides an elongating effect
  • Sophisticated fringing detail adds movement and texture
  • Structured shoulders create a sharp, confident silhouette
  • Versatile design suitable for both professional and social settings

Cons

  • Fringing detail requires careful handling to prevent tangling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in pristine condition, avoid contact with rough surfaces that could snag the knit or the delicate fringe. When styling, coordinate with neutral base layers to allow the contrast stripes to stand out. Regarding care, due to the nature of the knit and fringing, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the structured shoulders and the alignment of the wave pattern. Store the jacket on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the sculpted shoulders and prevent the fringe from becoming misshapen over time.
