Karen Millen Midi Dress - Purple - Size 14

This dress is ideal for black-tie events, gala evenings, formal weddings, and upscale cocktail parties where a statement of sophisticated elegance is desired.

Given the bandeau neckline, a well-fitting strapless bra or a bandeau bra that matches your skin tone and is seamless would be most appropriate to maintain the clean silhouette.

The feather trim requires very delicate handling. Professional dry cleaning is the recommended method for cleaning the entire garment, including the feathers. Avoid washing or direct cleaning of the feathers.

The bandage knit is designed to mould to the body, offering a firm, sculpted, and defined fit. It provides support and helps to retain the dress's structure.

Gently pat the feathers dry with a soft cloth and allow them to air dry completely. Avoid heat. If they become matted, a professional cleaner may be able to restore their appearance.

The thigh-grazing front split is designed to allow for ease of movement, making it comfortable for walking and socialising despite the fitted nature of the dress.

This particular model is available in Purple and in UK sizes 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16. Please refer to the product listing for other available options.

Gently press any loose feathers back into place. For significant shedding, professional repair may be needed. Avoid excessive pulling or snagging.

Ensure the dress is stored correctly on a padded hanger. If minor creasing occurs, consult a professional dry cleaner for appropriate pressing methods suitable for bandage knit.

Spot clean with extreme caution using a damp cloth only on the fabric, avoiding the feathers. Professional dry cleaning is the safest option for stain removal.
