Women's Black Sparkle Tweed Long Sleeve Tailored Midi Dress

Sparkle tweed woven in a bold check pattern with metallic threading running through - catches the light without veering into evening territory. Structured, collarless round neckline with strong, defined shoulders that hold their shape throughout the day. Button-through front with four patch pockets - two at the chest, two at the hip - giving it the considered detail of a tailored jacket in dress form. Cut to a fitted silhouette that nips at the waist and follows the body to a midi hem, sitting at approximately 125cm in length on a 5'9" frame. Fully lined for a clean, polished finish against the skin, with long sleeves that extend neatly to the wrist. A boardroom lunch, a gallery opening, a smart daytime occasion where the dress needs to do the work without any further effort - this is where this piece excels. The check tweed reads as authoritative rather than decorative, and the button-through construction means it presents with the same precision as a co-ord without requiring one. It stands on its own. Style it as the model does, with pointed-toe leather flats or court shoes to keep the line clean from hem to floor. A structured leather tote or small top-handle bag in a tonal shade completes the look without competing with the texture of the tweed. This is a dress that travels well from morning meetings through to an evening reception - the tailored cut holds its composure across the full length of the day, and the sparkle threading ensures it never tips into the purely functional. | Karen Millen Women's Sparkle Tweed Long Sleeve Tailored Midi Dress | Size: 6 Colour: black
