Product Information

Full details

This Karen Millen midi dress in Pink, size 14, is designed for the modern woman seeking a sophisticated and unique addition to her wardrobe. Its key benefit is the striking asymmetric fold detail that creates a sculptural, cape-like effect, offering standout style for occasions. A potential caveat is the structured linen blend fabric, which while elegant, may require careful handling to maintain its shape. Key features include its precision-cut pencil silhouette, defined waist, midi length (approx. 120cm), smooth yet structured linen blend fabric, cotton lining, and expert tailoring.

FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is highly versatile and suitable for corporate events, client dinners, weddings, formal daytime occasions, and evening receptions due to its elegant design and midi length.

What is the approximate length of the midi dress?

The midi length falls at approximately 120cm from the shoulder to the hem.

How should I care for the linen blend fabric?

It is recommended to dry clean the dress only. For minor touch-ups, use a cool iron on the reverse side. Avoid excessive water exposure.

Does the dress have any stretch?

The dress is made from a linen blend fabric designed for structure, and does not typically contain significant stretch. It features a tailored fit.

What type of undergarments are recommended?

Given the tailored silhouette and neckline, seamless undergarments are recommended. Consider a strapless or convertible bra depending on the desired neckline effect.

Can this dress be altered?

Yes, like most tailored garments, this dress can be altered by a professional tailor to achieve a more precise fit. However, alterations to the asymmetric detail should be approached with caution.

What footwear pairs well with this dress?

Barely-there strappy heels, pointed-toe pumps, or elegant heeled sandals complement the dress beautifully. The choice depends on the occasion.

Troubleshooting

Dress loses its shape after wear.

Ensure the dress is properly dry cleaned and hung on a suitable hanger. The structured nature of the linen blend means it should regain its form with correct storage.

Creasing in the linen blend fabric.

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid excessive steam or direct heat. If creases are stubborn, professional pressing is advised.

Asymmetric fold detail appears uneven.

Gently re-shape the fold by hand. Ensure the dress is hanging correctly. If the issue persists after dry cleaning, consult a professional tailor.
