Product Information

Full details

This Karen Millen midi dress in red, size 16, is designed for the adult female seeking contemporary sophistication with timeless appeal. Its key benefit lies in the structured compact stretch fabric that offers comfortable form and shape retention, complemented by flattering seam detailing and a defined waist. A potential caveat is that the full skirted silhouette, while graceful, may require specific styling for different occasions. Key features include a sleeveless design, a distinctive keyhole neckline, vertical seam detailing, a matching belt with a rectangular buckle, and a full A-line skirt.
