How do I find the right size for a petite frame?

Troubleshooting

Beads become loose or detached

Carefully sew the loose bead back on using a fine needle and thread that matches the bead's color. For significant issues, consult a professional seamstress.

Dress appears wrinkled after storage

Hang the dress on a padded hanger in a steamy bathroom for a short period. Avoid direct ironing, especially on the beaded areas. If necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, protected by a pressing cloth.

Sizing concerns for petite frames

Refer to the specific size guide for Karen Millen petite sizing. Ensure the shoulder straps and hem length are appropriate for your height. Minor alterations might be needed for a perfect fit.
