FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, races, garden parties, and graduation ceremonies where a refined yet modern style is appropriate.

What kind of accessories pair well with this dress?

Statement cuff bracelets and pointed court shoes are recommended for traditional occasions. For evening events, strappy heeled sandals can be a good choice. Simple, elegant jewelry will complement the dress's design.

What is the fabric made of?

The dress is expertly tailored from a crepe fabric, which offers structure with comfortable stretch, primarily composed of polyester.

How should I care for the crepe fabric?

It is generally recommended to dry clean this dress. If hand washing is an option, use cold water and a mild detergent, and iron on a cool setting on the reverse side.

Does the asymmetric cape require special undergarments?

Depending on your comfort and the specific cut, you might consider seamless undergarments. A well-fitting bra or appropriate shapewear would generally work well.

Can this dress be tailored?

Yes, like most tailored garments, this dress can be altered by a professional tailor to achieve a more personalized fit if needed.

Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit correctly

Consult the size guide provided by Karen Millen. If minor adjustments are needed, consider professional tailoring. For significant fit issues, check the return policy.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or follow the cool iron instructions on the care label. Hang the dress after steaming to allow it to settle.

Cape detail does not drape as expected

Ensure the dress is worn correctly, with the cape positioned as intended by the design. Sometimes, a slight adjustment after sitting or moving can help it settle.
