Karen Millen Midi Dress - Red - Striped - Size 12

This dress is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, evening galas, cocktail parties, and sophisticated social events where making a statement is desired.

Strappy heels, a sleek clutch, and minimalist or statement jewellery that complements the dress's embellishments work well. Consider the occasion when choosing accessories.

The dress should be dry cleaned only. Handle with care to avoid snagging or damaging the embellishments. Avoid direct ironing on the embellished areas.

The split is a fixed design feature of the dress and cannot be adjusted without tailoring.

The primary material is wool, as indicated by the product information, combined with embellishments.

Minor alterations may be possible, but significant changes, especially to the neckline or embellishments, should be approached with caution and ideally by a professional tailor experienced with delicate fabrics and embellishments.

Refer to standard sizing charts and consider your measurements. The dress is described as a UK size 12, so ensure this aligns with your typical sizing.

Ensure the dress is properly steamed or ironed according to care instructions. Allow it to hang for a period to let the fabric settle. Check that it's the correct size; a poorly fitting garment will not drape correctly.

Inspect the embellishments carefully. Minor looseness can sometimes be addressed by a skilled seamstress. For significant damage, consult a professional cleaner or tailor specializing in evening wear.

Gently use your fingers to detangle the fringe. Avoid using brushes or combs, which can cause further tangling or damage.
