The Karen Millen Sequin Halter Neck Hanky Hem Maxi Dress is a sophisticated statement piece designed for adults attending black-tie events, galas, or milestone celebrations. Its primary benefit is the striking, all-over sequin embellishment paired with an architectural hanky hem that creates dramatic movement and ensures the wearer stands out. Potential buyers should note that due to the intricate sequin work and open-back design, it requires careful handling and specific undergarment choices to maintain its sculpted fit.

Due to the open back and halter neckline, an adhesive bra or backless specialty undergarment is highly recommended.
No, you should never apply direct heat or an iron to sequined garments as it will melt the embellishments and damage the fabric.
Hang the dress in a cool, dark place inside a garment bag to protect the sequins from dust and accidental snagging.
This specific variant is a UK 16; check the brand's specific size guides if you are considering other variants designated as 'Petite' in the collection.
The hanky hem is an uneven cut that varies in length around the circumference of the skirt, designed to hit at a floor-sweeping length at its longest points.
If you notice a loose sequin, store it carefully and contact a professional tailor to have it securely re-stitched.
Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp jewelry. If a thread is pulled, do not cut it; consult a professional dry cleaner for repair.
To ensure the longevity of your garment, always store it in a breathable garment bag, away from direct sunlight, which can cause sequins to lose their luster. Because of the delicate nature of the embellishments, it is best to avoid wearing heavy jewelry that could catch on the fabric. Compatibility with undergarments is centered around the open back and halter style; adhesive bras or low-back foundations are usually the most effective choice. Given the complex construction, this dress should be professionally dry cleaned rather than machine washed to preserve the structural seams and individual sequin attachments.
