Karen Millen Viscose Blend Belted Square Neck Tailored Pencil Dress in Olive - Size 12

This dress is ideal for smart work events, elegant lunches, formal daytime occasions, and as a guest for weddings. Its sophisticated design makes it appropriate for settings where a polished and composed appearance is required.

Refer to the brand's specific size guide for Karen Millen. Generally, consider your measurements for bust, waist, and hips, and compare them to the chart. This is a tailored pencil dress, so precise fit is key.

Yes, the belt is removable. You can wear it to cinch your waist for a defined silhouette or remove it entirely for a cleaner, more understated look.

The dress is made from a Viscose Blend, which contributes to its structured feel and polished finish.

The dress pairs well with both pointed-toe court heels for a formal setting and strappy heeled sandals for a sophisticated, elongated finish. Elegant flats can also be suitable for daytime events.

The dress should be dry cleaned only. Avoid bleaching and tumble drying. Iron on a cool setting if necessary.

The midi length (approximately 121cm) is designed to be sophisticated and provide coverage. While generally flattering, personal preference for length can vary. It can be adjusted by a tailor if required, though this may affect the original design lines.

Ensure the dress is properly dry cleaned and steamed. The structured tailoring means it relies on the correct fabric hang. Consider the type of undergarments worn, as smooth, supportive undergarments can enhance the drape.

Gently work the buckle back and forth. If it remains stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing the mechanism. Do not force it excessively to avoid damage.

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to air out. If creases persist, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, preferably with a pressing cloth.
