FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, cocktail parties, formal dinners, graduations, and other occasions requiring a sophisticated and polished aesthetic.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart. Generally, measure your bust, waist, and hips, and compare these measurements to the provided size guide. UK size 16 corresponds to specific body measurements outlined by Karen Millen.

Can I wear this dress in warmer weather?

Yes, the sleeveless design makes it suitable for warmer weather. The satin fabric, while elegant, can also be breathable.

What type of undergarments should I wear?

Consider seamless undergarments for a smooth silhouette. A strapless bra is often recommended for sleeveless dresses with a keyhole neckline.

How long is the dress from shoulder to hem?

The midi length falls at approximately 121cm from the shoulder to the hem.

Can the keyhole cut-out be adjusted?

The keyhole cut-out is a fixed design element of the dress and cannot be adjusted.

Is the dress lined?

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased upon arrival.

Hang the dress for at least 24 hours. For stubborn creases, use a steamer on a low setting or iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth on a low heat setting.

Fabric snagged or pulled.

For minor snags, gently try to pull the fabric back into place with a needle. For more significant damage, professional repair may be necessary. Avoid abrasive surfaces.

Dress feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you have used a very mild detergent and rinsed thoroughly. Lay flat to dry completely. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can alter the drape of satin.
