FAQs

Are these trousers true to size?

The trousers are cut to a standard tailored fit. We recommend referring to the size guide if you are between sizes.

Can these be machine washed?

Due to the silk composition, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning to protect the integrity of the fabric.

What is the inseam length?

The garment is approximately 108cm in total length, providing a full-length finish for most heights.

Do they stretch out during the day?

No, the 'compact stretch' technology is specifically designed to maintain its shape and tension throughout the day.

Are these suitable for winter wear?

Yes, the structured fabric provides a medium weight that is suitable for most indoor and seasonal professional settings.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing slightly shiny after ironing

Always use a pressing cloth between the iron and the trousers, and use a low heat setting appropriate for delicate/silk blends.

Difficulty maintaining the crisp crease

Have the trousers professionally pressed; avoid heavy steaming which can relax the fibers too much.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Karen Millen trousers, prioritize professional dry cleaning or hand washing in cool water, as the silk-blend fabric can be sensitive to aggressive machine cycles. When storing, hang the trousers by the hem or use a trouser-specific hanger to prevent unwanted creasing in the fabric. For compatibility, these trousers pair best with pointed-toe heels or loafers to emphasize the straight-leg profile. Always check the specific care label on your garment, as individual batches may have slight variations in recommended handling.
