Is the fabric machine washable?

No, this garment requires professional dry cleaning to maintain its structure and finish.

Does the dress have any stretch?

Yes, the compact viscose fabric contains a subtle stretch to allow for ease of movement while maintaining a structured silhouette.

A well-fitting strapless bra is recommended to maintain the clean lines of the asymmetric neckline.

Can I wear this to a casual event?

Use a professional garment steamer on a low, gentle setting, keeping the steamer at a safe distance from the hardware.

Hardware losing its shine

Gently wipe the gold-toned clasp with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints or body oils.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Karen Millen dress remains in pristine condition, adhere to the following guidelines:

  • Storage: Always hang the dress using padded hangers to avoid shoulder distortion. Store in a garment bag to prevent the gold hardware from snagging on other items in your closet.
  • Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the drape and hardware, this dress is intended for professional dry cleaning only. Do not attempt to machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Compatibility: Pair with seamless, skin-toned undergarments to ensure a clean look under the tailored bodice seams. A strapless, supportive bra is recommended to accommodate the asymmetric neckline.
  • Handling: Be mindful of jewelry and sharp accessories when dressing to prevent pulling or snagging the viscose fabric.
