The Karen Millen Tailored Bodice Top is designed for women who need a refined, architectural piece for black-tie events, formal dinners, or upscale corporate functions. Crafted from a high-quality viscose-blend satin, this top offers a sleek, polished look with a structured fit that stays securely in place throughout an entire evening. A key caveat is that because of its tailored, slim-fit nature and specific shoulder construction, it requires careful pairing with high-waisted bottoms to maintain the intended silhouette.

Yes, its structured, formal aesthetic makes it an excellent choice for black-tie weddings and evening celebrations.
Yes, due to the one-shoulder design, a strapless or adhesive bra is recommended for a seamless finish.
Karen Millen items are generally tailored for a precise fit. If you are between sizes, refer to our standard size guide or consider the fit type specified for the model.
While it can be worn with a coat, the architectural shoulder fold may become flattened under a blazer. It is best showcased on its own.
The top is designed to skim the body. Simply tuck it into high-waisted bottoms and ensure the hem is smoothed out to maintain the clean silhouette.
Gently steam the folded area using a low-heat setting to restore the crispness of the edge, being careful not to touch the iron directly to the satin.
Hang the garment in a steam-filled bathroom for 10-15 minutes or use a garment steamer on the reverse side of the fabric.
To ensure the longevity of your garment, store it on a padded hanger to prevent the satin from creasing or the shoulder fold from losing its structure. Because this is a tailored piece, it is recommended that you avoid folding it tightly in luggage.
