The dress is primarily made from linen.

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

How can I style the bell sleeves?

What is the recommended cleaning method for this dress?

Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily.

Hang the dress immediately after wearing. Use a steamer for minor wrinkles, or consider professional dry cleaning. For minor creases, a cool iron setting on the reverse side of the linen may be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Sizing feels slightly off.

Refer to the Karen Millen sizing chart for precise measurements. The tailored fit and lace-up back offer some adjustability, so ensure the back is laced correctly.

Lace-up back ribbon tangles.

When storing, loosely tie the ribbon or coil it to prevent tangling. If tangled, gently work through the knots by hand rather than pulling forcefully.
