Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Karen Millen dress in pristine condition, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these actions can compromise the architectural structure of the cape and the tailored seams. It is recommended to use a professional dry-cleaning service to maintain the fabric's integrity. For minor wrinkles, use a handheld steamer from a safe distance rather than a heavy-duty iron. When storing, always hang the dress on a wide-shouldered hanger to ensure the cape detail retains its intended shape and does not develop permanent creases.
