What size is this specific dress?

This guide refers to the Karen Millen Embellished Woven Maxi Dress With Cape Sleeve in Silver, specifically in a UK women's size 14.

Can I wear this dress in warmer weather?

The woven fabric provides some breathability, but the maxi length and embellishments make it more suited for evening or cooler weather events. Consider lightweight undergarments if wearing in warmer climates.

Troubleshooting

Embellishment detachment

If an embellishment comes loose, carefully reattach it using a needle and thread appropriate for the fabric and embellishment, or consult a professional tailor.

Fabric creasing

Gently steam the garment on a low setting from the reverse side. If ironing is required, use a low heat setting and protect embellishments.

Cape sleeve not draping correctly

Ensure the dress is worn with appropriate undergarments and allow the fabric to settle. Minor adjustments to how it's worn can affect the drape.

Care Instructions:
