Karen Millen Satin Pleated Woven Midi Dress - Green - Size 12

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, christenings, significant birthday celebrations, and sophisticated evening gatherings. It also works well for upscale daytime events like garden parties or formal luncheons.

Refer to the brand's size guide for accurate measurements. The description notes UK sizing; consult the guide to find the best fit based on your bust, waist, and hip measurements.

The belt is designed to be a key feature for defining the waist. While it may be possible to remove it, it's intended to be worn as part of the dress's design for a complete aesthetic.

Satin typically requires delicate care. Professional dry cleaning is often recommended to maintain the fabric's luster and the integrity of the pleats. Always check the garment's care label for specific instructions.

Based on typical garment design, the dress is expected to fit true to size. However, for precise fitting, consulting the Karen Millen size chart and reading customer reviews if available is advised.

Seamless undergarments in a nude or tone-matching shade are recommended to ensure a smooth silhouette under the satin fabric. A strapless or multi-way bra might be suitable given the strappy neckline.

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to naturally relax. If creases persist, use a steamer on a low setting or iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth on a low heat, ensuring not to flatten the pleats.

Gently try to smooth the snag with your fingertip. Avoid pulling. For significant snags, professional repair might be necessary.

Ensure the buckle is securely fastened through the belt loops. If the belt itself is damaged, contact customer service for a replacement if possible.

Ensure the dress is the correct size. If discomfort persists, consider having a tailor adjust the lining if feasible, though this may void return policies.
