Full details
The Karen Millen Bandage Asymmetric Long Sleeve Midi Dress is a sophisticated, versatile choice for professional women who value a sculpted, body-conscious silhouette. Combining architectural design with a refined midi length, it transitions seamlessly from high-stakes boardroom meetings to elegant evening events. While the elastane-blend knitted construction ensures comfort and ease of movement, the close-fitting nature of the bandage-effect fabric requires careful styling to maintain a polished, structured appearance.

FAQs
Is this dress suitable for office wear?
Yes, the midi length and elbow-length sleeves make it a professional choice, especially when styled with a structured blazer.
Does the fabric have any stretch?
Yes, the dress is constructed from a knit blend containing elastane, which provides a close, comfortable fit that moves with your body.
What kind of shoes look best with this dress?
Strappy heeled sandals are ideal for evening, while classic pumps or refined flats work well for professional office settings.
How should I store this dress?
It is best to fold the dress and keep it in a drawer to prevent the knit from stretching out on a hanger.
Can this be machine washed?
Due to the delicate bandage draping and knit material, professional dry cleaning or gentle hand washing is highly recommended.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears slightly stretched after wearing
Lay the garment flat on a clean surface after a light steaming to allow the knit fibers to contract back into their original shape.
Visible lines from undergarments
Switch to laser-cut, seamless undergarments in a nude tone to match the body-conscious nature of the bandage knit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Karen Millen garment, always consult the internal care label for specific instructions. Generally, due to the intricate knitted construction and bandage draping, it is recommended to either hand wash in cold water or utilize a professional dry cleaning service to prevent snagging or distortion of the knit. When storing, fold the dress rather than hanging it to prevent the weight of the fabric from stretching the shoulders or bodice. For compatibility, this size UK 12 dress aligns with standard tailoring, but the body-hugging nature means it is best styled with seamless undergarments to optimize the silhouette.
