Product Information

Full details

This Karen Millen midi dress is designed for adult women seeking sophisticated occasion wear. Its key benefit is the striking asymmetric neckline and draped ruffle detail, offering a modern, architectural silhouette. A potential consideration is the compact stretch fabric, which provides a sleek finish but may require careful handling to maintain its shape. Key features include an off-one-shoulder design, cascading ruffle at the hip, a front split hem for movement, and long sleeves for added sophistication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Material: 100% Polyester. While durable, polyester can be sensitive to high heat.
  • Washing: Recommend dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's structure, drape, and color. If hand washing is necessary, use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing, especially on the ruffled detail.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat on a clean towel or hang on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight.
  • Ironing: Use a cool iron setting. Iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct contact with the ruffles, as they may lose their shape.
  • Storage: Store in a garment bag to protect from dust and snags. Hang on a padded hanger to maintain the silhouette.
