Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Karen Millen garment in pristine condition, it is recommended to follow the specific garment care label. Because the piece is composed of cotton, avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage. Instead, hang to air dry to preserve the shape of the chevron pattern and the integrity of the seams. If ironing is required, use a medium setting and avoid direct contact with any delicate fastenings or decorative trim. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the cinched waist is designed to provide a tailored shape based on typical sizing standards.
