Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing

Iron on a cool setting while the garment is slightly damp, or use a steamer. Ensure proper drying techniques as per care instructions.

Metallic buttons have lost their shine

Gently polish the buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have followed the recommended washing temperature. A low-heat tumble dry or hanging to dry can help soften the fabric.

Sizing seems incorrect

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for Karen Millen and compare your measurements. Consider the 'regular fit' description to understand how the garment should drape.
