FAQs
Is the dress suitable for outdoor weddings?
Yes, but be mindful of the floor-sweeping length on grass or uneven terrain to avoid soiling or tearing the hem.
Can I wear a standard bra with this dress?
The off-the-shoulder design works best with a strapless or convertible bra to ensure straps remain hidden.
How should I store this dress long-term?
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight inside a breathable garment bag.
What if the dress is too long?
The tiered construction is complex, so if alterations are needed, consult a professional tailor experienced with tulle fabrics.
Does the dress have any stretch?
The dress is designed with a tailored fit; refer to the brand’s specific size guide for measurements to ensure a comfortable fit at the waist.
Troubleshooting
Tulle layers appear wrinkled
Use a low-temperature steamer from a safe distance to gently relax the fibers; do not apply a hot iron directly to the tulle.
Minor snag in the tulle
Do not pull the loose thread. Use a small pair of precision scissors to gently trim the snag flush with the surrounding fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep this Karen Millen piece in top condition, follow these guidelines:

- Cleaning: Given the complex tulle construction, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to preserve the fabric integrity.
- Handling: Be cautious of sharp jewelry or rough surfaces that may catch on the delicate tulle layers.
- Compatibility: The UK size 14 fit is designed for standard proportions; verify your measurements against the brand’s size guide to ensure the defined waistband sits correctly at your natural waist.
