Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased upon arrival

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to relax for 24 hours. If creases persist, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric or consider professional steaming.

Sizing feels incorrect

Consult the detailed size guide provided by Karen Millen. Ensure accurate body measurements are taken before ordering. If between sizes, consider the desired fit (e.g., closer fit through hips vs. more relaxed).

Fabric loses its sheen

This can occur with improper care. Ensure only dry cleaning is used and avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat during any ironing process.
