Four original pieces from the '00s archives, reworked into a modern-day collection. Paying homage to Karen Millen's design-led legacy, four archival design codes are reimagined and presented for SS25. This maxi dress reimagines vintage elegance with modern sensibility. The statement balloon sleeves and structured corset bodice create an architectural silhouette that commands attention, whilst the pleated skirt flows gracefully to the floor. Style with oversized sunglasses and strappy sandals for daytime sophistication, or pair with leather accessories for an unexpected contrast. Perfect for garden parties, gallery openings or sophisticated brunches, this piece transitions effortlessly from day to evening with a simple change of accessories. The cotton blend fabric ensures the dress maintains its structured shape whilst offering breathability for all-day comfort. A true statement piece that reflects the brand's heritage of bold, feminine design. Striking balloon sleeves create a dramatic silhouette with voluminous proportions. Distinctive corset-inspired bodice with intricate stitching detail for a structured fit. High neckline adds a contemporary touch to this archive-inspired design. Flowing maxi length with pleated details that create elegant movement. Cotton poplin fabric offers a crisp, structured finish with comfortable wear.
