The Karen Millen Petite Printed Metallic Floral Woven Maxi Dress is an elegant choice for women seeking a sophisticated, floor-length ensemble specifically tailored for a petite frame. It features a striking metallic floral print, a refined halter neckline, and a flattering ruched bodice designed to highlight your silhouette without the need for extensive alterations. While its metallic sheen and flowing design make it perfect for formal occasions, please note that the delicate metallic fabric requires careful handling during storage and cleaning to maintain its finish.

This specific variant is labeled as 'Petite' with a 145cm length. While it fits shorter frames perfectly, it may be too short for average or tall heights.
No, due to the delicate metallic floral weave and the complex ruched construction, it is strictly recommended to dry clean only.
A stick-on bra or a backless adhesive bra is recommended to accommodate the twisted halter neckline.
The fabric is a woven material; while it provides a beautiful drape, it does not feature significant spandex-like stretch, so ensure you refer to the size chart for your exact fit.
When handled with care and stored properly, the print is durable; however, avoid rough surfaces or abrasive jewelry that could catch on the woven fabric.
Gently hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 10-15 minutes or use a professional garment steamer on the lowest setting from a distance.
Do not pull at threads. Take the garment to a professional tailor who specializes in delicate formal wear to secure the weave.
To ensure the longevity of your garment, store the dress hanging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the metallic sheen. Given the complexity of the ruched design and the metallic floral print, this dress is best maintained via professional dry cleaning. Avoid steam ironing directly on the metallic elements, as high heat can damage the finish. For compatibility, this dress pairs best with minimalist heels to emphasize the architectural neckline, and because it is designed for petite frames, it is ready to wear straight from the garment bag.
