Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the linen fabric see-through?
The dress is designed with high-quality weight linen to ensure opacity, though wearing skin-toned undergarments is always recommended.
Can I put this dress in the dryer?
No, it is highly recommended to hang-dry the dress to prevent shrinking and excess wrinkling common with natural linen fibers.
How do I choose the right size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your measurements against the Karen Millen size guide for the best fit, particularly around the bust and waist.
Is the belt removable?
Yes, the coordinating self-tie belt is fully detachable, allowing you to style the dress with your own belt or wear it loose for a more relaxed, shift-dress silhouette.
Does the blue colour fade after washing?
To preserve the vibrant geometric print, always wash the garment inside-out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight while drying.
Troubleshooting
Visible creasing after sitting
Lightly mist the fabric with water and use a handheld steamer to release wrinkles quickly.
Buttons appearing loose
Check button threads periodically; reinforce any loose stitching with matching thread to prevent loss.
Belt slipping during wear
Ensure the belt is tied in a double knot if the fabric is slippery, or consider using a small safety pin on the inside loop to secure it in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this dress is crafted from 100% linen, proper maintenance is essential. To keep the garment looking its best, we recommend dry cleaning or following the specific care label instructions found inside the dress. If you choose to hand wash, use cool water and a gentle detergent, avoiding harsh scrubbing to protect the geometric print. To remove wrinkles, use a garment steamer rather than a traditional iron, keeping the nozzle a few inches away from the fabric. Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the cap shoulders and prevent unsightly creases at the shoulder line.
