The Karen Millen Figure Form Bandage Fringe Knit Halter Neck Midi Dress is designed for individuals seeking a sophisticated, sculptural silhouette for formal occasions, such as black-tie events or cocktail evenings.

Yes, it is suitable for summer races or outdoor parties, though the compressive bandage knit may feel warm in very high temperatures.
Given the open-back and square-cut halter design, a backless adhesive bra or a specialized halter-compatible bra is recommended.
Yes, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended for the entire garment to protect the fringe and the delicate knit structure.
The dress follows UK sizing. Refer to standard Karen Millen sizing charts and consider that the bandage knit is designed to provide a firm, figure-hugging fit.
Do not iron the fringe directly. Use a handheld steamer from a distance if necessary, or simply hang the dress in a steamy bathroom to allow natural gravity to smooth out minor wrinkles.
Lay the garment flat on a clean surface and gently comb through the fringe with your fingers, starting from the bottom and working upwards.
Bandage knit is designed to be compressive; ensure you are wearing appropriate seamless undergarments to allow the fabric to sit flush against the skin without bunching.
To ensure your Karen Millen dress remains in peak condition, consider the following care instructions. Since the garment is made from polyester bandage knit, it should be stored hanging on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the bodice. Avoid hanging it by the fringe, as the weight of the garment can cause the hem to stretch over time. When transporting, it is advised to use a garment bag, ensuring the fringe is laid flat to prevent tangling. If the fringe becomes slightly bunched during transit, gently smooth it out with your hands; avoid using harsh brushes or irons directly on the fringe or the knit banding. For cleaning, professional dry cleaning is the safest method to preserve the integrity of the sculpting knit.
