Karen Millen Petite Textured Drop Waist Long Sleeve Woven Midi Dress in Black | Size 16

Striking textured bodice with an intricate woven grid pattern that contrasts beautifully against the smooth, gathered midi skirt below Drop waist silhouette with a gathered skirt that falls to a flattering midi length, designed with the petite frame in mind Sleeveless construction with a classic round neckline for a refined, understated finish Two-fabric approach - structured textured top half meets a softer woven skirt - creating a considered, architectural look Midi length hemline that sits elegantly below the knee, offering both sophistication and ease of movement This dress is a masterclass in considered dressing - the kind of piece that does the work for you without ever trying too hard. The textured bodice draws the eye with its tactile, woven surface, while the drop waist and gathered skirt create a silhouette that is both structured and effortlessly graceful. It is the sort of dress that transitions seamlessly from a polished day at the office to an intimate dinner or a gallery opening. Style it as the model does, with woven flat ballet pumps for a quietly confident daytime look, or swap in a block-heeled mule and a sleek clutch for an evening occasion. Layer a sharp tailored blazer over the top for cooler days, or let the dress speak for itself in warmer months. Minimal jewellery - a fine chain or simple stud earrings - will keep the aesthetic sharp and intentional. A true wardrobe investment for the woman who values craft and quiet confidence in equal measure. | Karen Millen Petite Textured Drop Waist Long Sleeve Woven Midi Dress in Black | Size 16
