Tailored trench-inspired design featuring a wide lapel collar with structured epaulette detailing at the shoulders, lending an architectural edge to the silhouette Double-breasted button fastening through the bodice, staying true to classic outerwear codes reimagined in dress form Matching belted waist with a square buckle that cinches and defines, creating a sharp, polished waistline Full, pleated midi skirt falling to approximately 130cm, offering graceful movement and a beautifully balanced proportion Short sleeves with tab detailing, crafted in 100% cotton for a crisp, structured finish that holds its shape throughout the day Patch pockets at the hip add a utilitarian touch, reinforcing the trench coat heritage of the design This dress is a masterclass in taking outerwear codes and translating them into something entirely wearable and refined. The structured lapels and double-breasted buttons make an immediate impression, whilst the full pleated skirt softens the look with effortless movement. It's a dress that works beautifully across a range of occasions - wear it to a garden party, a smart lunch, or a daytime wedding with strappy block-heeled mules as seen on the model. For the office or a more formal daytime event, consider pairing with pointed-toe heels and a structured leather tote to sharpen the overall look. The belted waist means minimal accessorising is needed, though a pair of understated gold earrings and a sleek leather clutch will complete the ensemble with quiet confidence. A dress that speaks to the woman who appreciates considered design and expert construction in equal measure. | Karen Millen Women's Tailored Cotton Trench Belted Full Skirted Midi Dress in Ivory | Size: 16
