100% viscose woven fabric carries a soft drape and cool handfeel, skimming the body without clinging - it moves with ease and settles beautifully at the midi-maxi length. A deep V-neckline is framed by contrast-piped lapels that draw the eye inward, giving the bodice a structured, intentional finish against the otherwise relaxed silhouette. Voluminous long sleeves are detailed with a row of buttons along the cuff, adding a considered tailoring note that lifts the dress beyond a simple print piece. A self-tie belt with the same contrast piping cinches the waist and anchors the full skirt, allowing the wearer to control the silhouette from relaxed to defined. The bold floral print is rendered in a painterly, oversized scale - the kind that reads as a single artistic composition across the skirt rather than a repeated pattern. Petite-specific cut at approximately 127cm length, proportioned so the hem falls at the right point without needing alteration. Viscose with a cool, smooth handfeel is the reason this dress works so well in warmer months - it doesn't trap heat and the woven construction gives it enough body to hold its shape as the skirt sweeps out. The full silhouette is balanced by the belted waist, so it sits with a sense of occasion without feeling stiff. Style it as the model does: strappy heeled sandals let the hem length do the work and keep the proportions clean for a petite frame. The contrast piping detail on the lapels and belt means jewellery can stay minimal - a simple drop earring is sufficient. This is the dress for a summer wedding as a guest, a smart lunch, or an evening event where you want to arrive in something that holds its own without requiring a second layer. The print carries enough depth that it transitions naturally from a garden party in the afternoon through to dinner. | Karen Millen Women's Petite Viscose Floral Print Woven Maxi Dress in Blue | Size: 14
