<h3><span style="font-size:12px;"><b>What makes a dress suitable for work?</b></span></h3> <span style="font-size:10px;">A work dress should blend polish with practicality, striking a balance between professionalism and style. Look for tailored silhouettes, refined fabrics, and thoughtful details - think darted waists, pleated skirts and sharp necklines. Find work dresses that are designed to move seamlessly from boardroom to business lunches, offering structure, elegance, and comfort in equal measure.</span> <h3><span style="font-size:12px;"><b>What styles of work dress are best for the office?</b></span></h3> <span style="font-size:10px;">The most office-appropriate dresses offer clean lines, flattering shapes, and understated sophistication. Classic silhouettes such as a-line, <u><a href="https://www.karenmillen.com/womens/dresses/shirt-dresses">shirt styles</a></u>, and shift dresses for work remain timeless staples. Look for modest necklines, defined waists, and knee-length or midi hems to ensure a structured and professional appearance.</span> <h3><span style="font-size:12px;"><b>How can I style a work dress for different seasons?</b></span></h3> <span style="font-size:10px;">Styling work dresses to suit the seasons is all about considered layering and clever accessorising. For spring and summer, opt for lighter layers over your work dress, such as a cropped jacket or trench, and pair it with loafers or pumps for a professional, warm-weather look. In the cooler months, layer your work dress with a tailored wool coat or structured blazer, and add tights and heel boots to complete your look.</span> <h3><span style="font-size:12px;"><b>Do you offer petite or plus size work dresses?</b></span></h3> <span style="font-size:10px;">Yes. Our workwear collection is available in a range of sizes - including <u><a href="https://www.karenmillen.com/shop/petite-work-dresses">petite</a></u> and <u><a href="https://www.karenmillen.com/shop/plus-size-work-dresses">plus size</a></u> fits - tailored to flatter every figure with precision.</span>
