Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Karen Millen dress remains in pristine condition, follow these care guidelines. Given the linen material, it is recommended to steam the garment gently before wearing to smooth out any natural creases. When cleaning, check the interior garment tag for specific care instructions, typically recommending delicate machine washing or professional dry cleaning to maintain the structural contrast stitching. For storage, hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion and keep the bodice shape intact. The dress is true to size (UK 14), providing a consistent fit across the silhouette.
