Product Information

Full details

FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, gala evenings, milestone celebrations, and sophisticated summer races due to its dramatic design and refined tailoring.

How should I style this dress?

Keep accessories minimal to let the dress shine. Strappy metallic heeled sandals are recommended. Consider a sleek clutch and delicate fine jewelry. A simple pendant necklace or statement earrings would complement the square neckline.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress has a midi-to-maxi length of approximately 95.5 cm.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is made from a stretch-infused knit fabric, primarily Polyester, designed for a body-conscious fit.

How do I care for the tassel fringe?

The tassel fringe should be handled with care. Dry cleaning is recommended for the entire garment. Avoid direct heat or harsh manipulation of the fringe. Gently detangle if needed.

Can this dress be worn for casual events?

Due to its elaborate design and formal aesthetic, this dress is best suited for special occasions rather than casual wear.

Does the dress have a lot of stretch?

Yes, the dress is made from stretch-infused knit fabric, providing a close, body-conscious fit that allows for ease of movement.

Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit as expected.

Refer to the size guide for Karen Millen dresses. Ensure you are measuring accurately. If the fit is still not ideal, consider if the bandage knit style is suited to your preference or explore other Karen Millen styles.

Tassels appear tangled or uneven.

Gently detangle the tassels with your fingers. Avoid pulling them forcefully. If significant creasing occurs, a very cool iron on the reverse side or steaming (from a distance) might help, but always test on an inconspicuous area first or consult a professional dry cleaner.

Fabric seems to be stretching out of shape.

Ensure the dress is stored correctly on a hanger. Avoid over-stretching the fabric when trying it on. The stretch-infused knit is designed to hold its shape, but improper care can lead to premature stretching.

Seam detailing looks distorted.

This is unlikely unless the garment has been subjected to undue stress or improper washing. Ensure the garment is not being over-stretched or washed incorrectly. If this persists, contact customer service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment; no setup is required beyond trying it on.

Compatibility: While primarily designed for women's UK size 12, check the product for availability in other sizes and colors within the Karen Millen range if this specific item is not a fit. This dress pairs well with minimalist accessories to allow the design to be the focal point.

Care Instructions:

  • Material: Polyester blend.
  • Washing: Due to the delicate nature of the knit and tassel fringe, dry clean only is recommended to maintain the garment's structure and appearance.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, avoiding direct contact with the fringe.
  • Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to preserve its shape and prevent creasing, especially in the skirt area. Ensure the fringe is not crushed.
