How should I determine my size?

Please refer to the Karen Millen sizing chart provided on the product page. For this specific dress, consider the fitted pencil silhouette when choosing your size.

Is the fabric stretchy?

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Professional dry cleaning is recommended for stubborn creases.

Ensure the dress has been dry cleaned according to the care instructions. Avoid washing or machine drying, which can alter fabric structure.

Consider the fitted nature of the pencil silhouette. If movement is restricted, consult the size chart carefully for future purchases or explore alternative styles.
