Karen Millen Cutwork Embroidered Woven Maxi Dress With Pleated Godets - Floral - Pink - Size 16

Due to the open back design, a low-back bra, a stick-on bra, or seamless adhesive cups are recommended to maintain the dress's aesthetic.

While the dress is made of wool, it is fully lined and designed for occasions that may extend into the evening or cooler parts of the day. For extremely high temperatures, consider lighter fabric options.

The cutwork embroidery is delicate. Professional dry cleaning is the safest method for cleaning. Avoid direct contact with rough surfaces that could snag the embroidery.

Understated accessories are best to let the dress shine. Consider strappy heels, a sleek clutch, and delicate jewelry such as drop earrings. An updo hairstyle complements the open back.

Yes, like most garments, it can be altered by a professional tailor. However, alterations to the embroidered bodice should be approached with care.

The dress has a floor-grazing maxi length of approximately 138cm.

This dress is ideal for formal events such as summer weddings (guest or bridal party), black-tie events, charity galas, and sophisticated evening parties.

Gently try to untangle any snags. For more significant damage, consult a professional tailor or seamstress specializing in delicate fabrics and embroidery.

Refer to the brand's specific size guide for accurate measurements. If the fit is still unsatisfactory, consider consulting a tailor for alterations, especially given the garment's structured design.

Hang the dress and allow it to air out. For stubborn creases, use a garment steamer on a low setting, keeping the steamer at a safe distance from the fabric and embroidery. Avoid direct ironing, especially on embroidered areas.
