This Karen Millen Sparkle Tweed Long Sleeve Tailored Midi Dress is designed for the modern professional seeking a polished, authoritative look for daytime meetings and formal events. Its key benefit is the combination of structured tailoring with subtle metallic detailing, allowing for a seamless transition from business settings to evening receptions. A key caveat to note is that the fitted silhouette requires careful sizing consideration to ensure comfort across the chest and waist while maintaining the integrity of the tailored shoulder design.

Yes, while designed for professional settings, the metallic threading in the tweed adds enough shimmer for evening receptions and gallery openings.
The dress is cut to approximately 125cm in length when measured on a 5'9" model.
The dress is fully lined, which adds a layer of warmth. It is best suited for air-conditioned office environments or cooler transitional seasons.
Due to the delicate nature of the sparkle tweed, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the metallic fibers and structured shape.
Yes, it features four functional patch pockets—two on the chest and two on the hips.
The dress is designed as a fitted silhouette. If you prefer a slightly less restrictive fit, consider comparing your measurements against our standard sizing guide.
Gently reshape the padding with your hands while the garment is hanging and allow it to air out in a humidity-controlled environment.
Do not pull the thread. Use a clean needle to gently push the snag back into the weave from the reverse side of the fabric.
To keep your dress in optimal condition, storage is critical. Hang the dress on a wide, contoured coat hanger that supports the defined shoulders; wire hangers may cause the shoulder shape to collapse or create indentations.
Regarding care, because the tweed contains metallic threading, it is best to avoid machine washing. Always check the internal garment care label for the most accurate instructions, typically recommending professional dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's luster and structural integrity. Avoid contact with abrasive jewelry or rough surfaces that could catch on the woven tweed fibers. Ensure the buttons are securely fastened before hanging to prevent unnecessary tension on the buttonholes.
