Troubleshooting
Applique embroidery snagged

Wrinkles in the organdie overlay

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of your Karen Millen dress, always check the internal care label. Given the presence of delicate applique and organdie, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to preserve the embroidery’s shape and the fabric’s sheen. Avoid contact with abrasive jewelry or rough surfaces that could snag the sheer overlay. When storing, hang the dress using padded hangers to prevent the weight of the fabric from distorting the spaghetti straps or the neckline draping.
