Product Information

Full details

The Karen Millen Lace Insert Bias Cut Maxi Dress is designed for adult women seeking a sophisticated, feminine aesthetic for high-end events like weddings or black-tie dinners. Its primary benefit is the bias-cut satin viscose fabric, which provides a body-skimming, graceful drape that moves elegantly with the wearer. A key caveat for potential buyers is the delicate nature of the satin material and lace inserts, which necessitate careful handling and professional cleaning to maintain the dress's premium finish.

FAQs

What is the best way to clean this dress?

This garment should be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the integrity of the satin viscose and lace details.

Does the bias-cut fabric provide much stretch?

Bias-cut fabrics have natural 'give' due to the angle of the weave, allowing the dress to stretch and conform comfortably to the body.

Can I wear a standard bra with the spaghetti straps?

Given the delicate nature of the spaghetti straps and the cowl neckline, consider using adhesive cups or a specialized low-back strapless bra.

What is the length of the dress?

This is a maxi-length dress designed to reach the floor. The exact drape depends on your height and the heel height of your chosen footwear.

Are there other colors available?

Yes, this style is also available in pink in various sizes.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles or creases in the satin

Use a professional garment steamer on a low heat setting, keeping the steamer head a few inches away from the fabric to prevent water spots.

Loose thread or snag in the lace

Do not pull the thread. Use a pair of small, sharp scissors to carefully trim any stray ends, or take the garment to a professional tailor for repair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Karen Millen dress remains in optimal condition, treat it as a delicate garment. Before wearing, steam the dress gently to remove any folding creases from storage; avoid using high heat directly on the satin surface. Due to the fine nature of the lace and satin, avoid contact with rough jewelry or surfaces that could cause pulls. For long-term maintenance, the garment should be professionally dry cleaned. Store the dress in a breathable garment bag, preferably hanging on a padded hanger to preserve the shape of the spaghetti straps and the drape of the cowl neckline.
