FAQs

What type of fabric is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from 100% cotton, offering breathability and comfort.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the Karen Millen sizing chart for accurate measurements. Knitwear can fit differently, so checking your bust, waist, and hip measurements is recommended.

Can this dress be worn in different seasons?

Yes, the midi length and cotton material make it suitable for warmer weather. It can also be layered with a blazer and boots for cooler seasons.

What kind of undergarments are best with a high neckline?

A seamless bra or a bralette is generally recommended to maintain a smooth silhouette under the high neckline.

How do I care for the pointelle knit detail?

Follow the care label instructions carefully, which typically involve gentle washing and flat drying to preserve the delicate knit pattern.

Is the ribbed pattern compressive?

The vertical ribbed pattern is designed to be flattering and provide a gentle shaping effect, rather than being overtly compressive.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too tight or clingy.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Knitwear can have a body-conscious fit; consider the sizing guide carefully. Allowing the garment to hang for a while after trying it on might help it relax slightly.

Pointelle knit pattern looks distorted after washing.

Always follow the specific washing instructions. Avoid harsh spin cycles. Reshape the dress while damp and dry flat to maintain the integrity of the knit structure.

Color fading or bleeding.

Wash in cold water and consider washing with similar colors for the first few washes to prevent any potential color transfer.
