FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is perfectly suited for summer weddings, garden parties, races, and other special daytime or evening occasions where elegant attire is appropriate.
What type of undergarments should I wear with the open-back design?
Consider adhesive bras or backless, strapless bra solutions to maintain the clean lines of the open-back design. Seamless options are best.
How does the fabric feel?
The dress is made from a Lyocell and linen blend, offering a beautifully soft drape and natural breathability. It feels lightweight and comfortable, especially in warmer weather.
What is the approximate length of the dress?
The midi length sits at approximately 142cm from the shoulder to the hem.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No, machine washing is not recommended due to the fabric blend and delicate print. Professional dry cleaning is advised for optimal care.

This particular dress is available in a blue floral pattern. Please check the product details for available sizes. Other Karen Millen dresses may offer different color options.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled
Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to relax. Gentle steaming on a low setting can help remove creases. For stubborn wrinkles, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
Print looks faded
This can occur with improper washing. Ensure you follow the recommended dry clean only or very gentle hand wash instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat.
Lining feels uncomfortable
Ensure the dress is the correct size and not too tight. The fully lined construction is designed for a smooth fit; if it feels restrictive, consider professional tailoring.
