Intricate cutwork embroidery adorns the collar, sleeves and hem, creating an artisanal finish that sets this dress apart from simpler shirt styles Dramatic balloon sleeves with cutwork detailing add volume and visual interest to the silhouette, tapering elegantly at the cuff Button-through front fastening runs the full length of the dress, offering a refined shirt-dress structure with a defined waist Scalloped hem with large-scale floral cutwork lacework creates a striking border detail, lending a couture-inspired finish to the midi length Crafted entirely from 100% cotton with a cotton lining, ensuring a comfortable, breathable wear throughout the day Midi length sitting approximately 135cm, offering sophisticated coverage with a front split for ease of movement This dress is a masterclass in considered craftsmanship, where the artistry of cutwork embroidery transforms a classic shirt-dress silhouette into something truly special. The structured collar and button-through front keep the look anchored in tailored elegance, whilst the voluminous balloon sleeves and scalloped hem inject a sense of occasion that takes it well beyond everyday dressing. It is the kind of piece that works effortlessly for a summer wedding as a guest, a garden party, or an elevated lunch. Style as the model does, pairing with strappy heeled sandals to let the dress take centre stage - the clean lines and intricate detailing speak for themselves. For cooler evenings, layer a fine-knit cardigan over the shoulders without disturbing the silhouette. Keep jewellery understated - a delicate gold chain or simple drop earrings will complement rather than compete with the embroidery. This is a dress that rewards those who appreciate the detail. | Karen Millen Women's Cotton Cutwork Balloon Sleeve Woven Midi Dress in Ivory | Size: 8
