Designed for the sophisticated adult woman, the Karen Millen Structured Full Skirted Midi Dress is an ideal choice for formal occasions like weddings, black-tie events, and race days where a polished silhouette is required. Its primary benefit lies in the architectural fusion of a fitted, boned-style bodice and a voluminous, pleated midi skirt, which together create a flattering and refined form. However, potential owners should note that the high-quality satin fabric and structured design require careful handling and professional cleaning to maintain its finish and shape over time.

Due to the satin material and the structural boning, professional dry cleaning is the safest and recommended method.
Given the fitted, boned-style bodice, it is recommended to wear seamless undergarments to maintain a smooth silhouette under the satin fabric.
Direct ironing can damage the sheen and texture of the satin. It is highly recommended to use a steamer instead.
The dress is designed at an approximate length of 125cm, which generally falls at a classic midi length, though this may vary slightly based on individual height.
The square neckline is ideal for highlighting your neckline and ears. Elegant drop earrings or a delicate pendant necklace are excellent choices.
Use a professional garment steamer on a low setting; do not iron directly on the satin fabric.
The bodice is designed for a fitted, sculpted look; ensure the side or back zipper is clear of the internal lining before pulling gently.
Do not pull on loose threads. Take the garment to a professional tailor to have them secured professionally to avoid damaging the satin weave.
To ensure your dress retains its structure and luster, store it on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder deformation from the straps. Given the satin fabric, avoid exposing the dress to sharp jewelry or rough surfaces that could snag the material. For cleaning, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning to protect the integrity of the boned bodice and the pleats in the skirt. If the dress arrives with minor wrinkles from storage, use a garment steamer on a low, gentle setting, keeping the nozzle a safe distance from the satin to prevent heat damage.
