The Karen Millen Tux Short Sleeve Tailored Midi Dress is designed for the modern woman who values understated sophistication and clean, structured tailoring. Featuring a refined satin-finish, a tuxedo-inspired button-through front, and functional hip pockets, this piece provides an elongating, polished silhouette perfect for formal daytime events or intimate celebrations. While the fully lined, high-quality fabric offers a graceful drape, users should note that the light-catching satin material requires careful maintenance to preserve its subtle sheen and shape.

Professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to protect the satin finish and the structure of the internal lining.
Like most satin fabrics, it may crease if worn for long periods while sitting, but it generally holds its shape well due to the full lining.
The dress is designed as a tailored fit. If you are between sizes or prefer a slightly less structured feel, consider opting for your larger size.
Yes, it is designed for occasion wear and is an excellent choice for wedding breakfasts or civil ceremonies due to its clean, white, and polished aesthetic.
The patch pockets are designed for aesthetic and light utility; they are not intended to hold heavy objects that might distort the drape of the skirt.
The dress has a midi length of approximately 122cm, which typically falls to the mid-calf depending on the wearer's height.
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes or use a handheld steamer from a distance to gently relax the fibers.
Ensure you have the correct size for your frame; if the buttons pull, check if a slightly larger size or adjustment at the side seams is needed for a comfortable fit.
To ensure your Karen Millen dress retains its tailored look, proper care is essential. Because the garment features a satin finish and internal lining, it should not be machine washed at home. We recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's sheen and prevent damage to the button-through assembly. When storing, always use a padded hanger to support the shoulder structure and keep the garment in a breathable garment bag to avoid dust accumulation. If the dress arrives with minor creases from shipping, a light steam from a distance is preferred over direct ironing, as excessive heat can flatten the finish of the satin fabric.
