Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Karen Millen garment, follow these care and maintenance guidelines:

- Pressing: Use a cool iron or a professional steamer from a distance. Avoid direct contact with hot metal surfaces to prevent scorching the satin fibers.

- Fit: This dress follows standard UK sizing. Ensure you check your measurements against the specific UK 10 sizing to ensure the structured bodice fits correctly at the waist and chest.
