Full details

This Karen Millen tailored pencil dress in olive green is designed for the modern woman seeking sophisticated and composed attire for smart occasions, from boardroom meetings to elegant daytime events. Its key benefit lies in its expert tailoring and versatile styling options, allowing for a defined silhouette with the removable belt or a cleaner line without it.

FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for smart work events, boardroom meetings, elegant lunches, weddings as a guest, and other occasions where sophisticated and composed attire is required.

Can I wear the dress without the belt?

Yes, the belt is removable. Wearing the dress without the belt offers a cleaner, more understated silhouette.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress has a midi length, sitting at approximately 121cm from the shoulder to the hem.

What material is the dress made of?

The dress is made from a viscose blend, which includes wool, contributing to its structured feel and elegant drape.

How should I care for this dress?

Professional dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse side if necessary.

How do I style this dress for different events?

For a polished look, pair with heeled sandals or court shoes, a structured clutch, and minimal jewelry. For professional settings, consider adding a tailored blazer.

Does the square neckline offer much coverage?

The square neckline provides refined coverage, with a subtle V-notch detail at the center front adding an architectural element without being overly revealing.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels too tight or restrictive

Consider if the size is appropriate. The pencil skirt cut inherently offers a more fitted silhouette. For increased comfort, remove the belt to allow for a slightly less cinched waist.

Belt buckle is damaged or lost

Contact customer service for replacement parts or inquire about compatible aftermarket buckles. Ensure careful handling of the buckle to prevent damage.

Fabric appears creased after storage

Hang the dress on a padded hanger. Gently steam the fabric on a low heat setting or consult a professional dry cleaner for pressing services. Avoid direct high heat.
