Karen Millen Midi Dress - Blue - Size 12

This dress is best suited for formal events such as black-tie affairs, gala evenings, upscale cocktail parties, and formal wedding guest attire. Its design is intended to make a statement.

The feather trim requires delicate care. We recommend professional dry cleaning only. Avoid direct heat or excessive moisture on the feathers. Store the dress in a garment bag to protect them.

Yes, the dress is made from an elastane-blend knit fabric, which provides a close, defined fit and allows for some stretch while maintaining its shape and structure.

No, due to the delicate feather trim and specialized knit fabric, machine washing and tumble drying are not recommended. Professional dry cleaning is the only recommended cleaning method.

A strapless bra or adhesive backless bra is recommended to maintain the clean lines of the bandeau neckline and avoid visible straps.

The thigh-grazing front split is designed to provide ease of movement while adding a sophisticated and dramatic element to the midi skirt. It allows for comfortable walking and sitting.

Gently use a handheld steamer from a distance to lift and reshape the feathers. If feathers are significantly dislodged, consult a professional tailor or dry cleaner experienced with delicate embellishments.

The bandage knit is designed for a close, sculpted fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size. If it remains uncomfortable, consider alternative styling options or a different garment for extended wear.

Gently use a fabric shaver to remove any small pills. Avoid rubbing the fabric excessively during wear and cleaning.

While unlikely with proper care, if colour transfer occurs, re-dry clean the garment. Avoid prolonged contact with light-coloured fabrics when the dress is damp.
