Designed for the sophisticated adult woman, the Karen Millen Soft Tailored Colour Block Detail Midi Dress is an ideal choice for formal events where a refined, contemporary silhouette is desired. Its primary benefit lies in the artfully gathered waist and wrap-style bodice, which provide a universally flattering structure that transition effortlessly from day to night. Please note that as a tailored polyester garment with an asymmetrical hem, it requires careful handling during cleaning to maintain its architectural drape.

Yes, its midi length and tailored neckline make it appropriate for professional formal events, though the colour blocking may be bolder than standard office wear.
The dress is made from a structured polyester material, which typically has minimal stretch. It is designed to fit through tailoring rather than elasticity.
Absolutely. The midi length prevents the hem from dragging on grass, and the soft tailoring provides breathability for outdoor settings.
A plunge or deep-V bra is recommended to ensure the undergarment remains hidden under the tailored bodice.
We recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the structural tailoring and the vibrancy of the colour block panels.
Strappy heels or elegant pointed-toe pumps are best as they elongate the leg and allow the asymmetrical hem to hang properly.
Use a handheld garment steamer on a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 15 minutes to let the wrinkles relax.
Ensure the wrap-style bodice is properly centered on your frame and adjust the internal ties or snaps if applicable to ensure a secure, symmetrical fit.
To ensure your dress maintains its structure, store it on a padded hanger to avoid shoulder dimples. Due to the tailored nature of the garment, always check the interior care label. Generally, polyester fabrics should be machine-washed on a gentle cycle or dry-cleaned to preserve the integrity of the colour blocking and the waist gathering. If ironing is necessary to smooth out transit creases, use a low-heat setting or a garment steamer, keeping the steamer head at a slight distance from the fabric to prevent heat damage. It is compatible with a wide range of formal footwear, but avoid chunky styles that might overwhelm the delicate, asymmetrical flow of the hem.
