Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit as expected.

Refer to the detailed size guide provided by Karen Millen, paying close attention to UK sizing measurements. If the fit is still not right, explore available sibling products in different UK sizes (e.g., 12, 8, 14, 6, 10) or consider alterations.

Embellishments appear loose or damaged.

Inspect the embellishments carefully. Minor loosening might be fixable with careful hand-stitching. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or consider contacting customer service for repair options, adhering strictly to care instructions to prevent further damage.

Fabric appears creased after storage.

Hang the dress on a padded hanger to allow creases to fall naturally. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting on the reverse side of the fabric, avoiding direct contact with embellishments. A garment steamer on a low setting can also be effective for removing light wrinkles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This is a finished garment, so no 'setup' is required beyond trying it on. Compatibility is based on personal style and the occasion; it is designed for formal adult female wear. Care instructions are crucial for maintaining the dress's embellishments and fabric integrity. Always refer to the care label for specific guidance. Generally, for embellished woven garments, dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the fabric and intricate details. If hand washing is permitted, use cool water and a mild detergent, avoiding harsh scrubbing on the embellished areas. Ironing should be done on a low heat setting, preferably on the reverse side of the fabric, and never directly on the embellishments.
