FAQs

Troubleshooting
Dress does not fit as expected.
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Karen Millen. This garment is a UK size 16. Consider the fit of other Karen Millen garments you own for comparison. If the fit is significantly off, check the return policy.
Metallic threads appear loose or snagged.
Gently trim any loose threads with small, sharp scissors without pulling. Avoid snagging the fabric on rough surfaces. If significant damage occurs, consult a professional tailor or seamstress.
Fabric loses its sheen after cleaning.
Ensure you are following the recommended low-heat ironing and careful washing procedures. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat during drying, which can diminish the fabric's finish.
