FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for professional events, corporate functions, client dinners, weddings, and other formal daytime or evening occasions where a sophisticated and unique look is desired.

What fabric is the dress made from?

The dress is made from a linen blend fabric with a smooth, structured feel. It is also cotton-lined for comfort.

How should I care for this dress?

It is recommended to dry clean the dress only to preserve its structure and fabric quality. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse side if needed.

What is the length of the midi skirt?

The midi length falls at approximately 120cm, providing a refined and elongating finish.

Does the asymmetric detail affect the fit?

The asymmetric fold detail is a design element that drapes across the shoulder and neckline, contributing to the sculptural silhouette without typically affecting the core fit of the dress.

Can this dress be worn in warmer weather?

The linen blend fabric offers some breathability, making it suitable for warmer weather, especially for events where you are mostly indoors or in the evening.

What size should I order?

Refer to the Karen Millen size guide for specific measurements to ensure you select the correct size for the tailored pencil silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily

Linen blends can crease. Minimize wrinkles by hanging immediately after wear and consider a cool iron on the reverse side if necessary. Professional dry cleaning can help restore the fabric's smoothness.

Fit feels too structured

The tailored fit is designed for a sharp silhouette. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. Consider professional tailoring for minor adjustments if needed.

Asymmetric detail loses shape

Avoid over-handling or rough treatment of the fold detail. Store on a padded hanger to maintain its sculptural form. Follow dry cleaning instructions carefully.
