So my darlings, this is the first dress I've tried from the Karen Millen Plus Size range. It wasn't that long ago that I actually found out that KM did plus (sizes 18-24 currently) and honestly the higher price point has put me off. But... after trying my first piece (a coat that I am absolutely obsessed with) I honestly think the price is justified partly because of the great quality but mostly because it's one of the few brands that is offering something different in larger sizes right now.
One of the things that has alwayhs set Karen Millen apart for me is their prints and this dress is no exception. A large scale floral is hardly rare on a plus size dress, but this more contemporary take in a palette of deep browns and acid greens was so eye catching and unusual that I couldn't resist it. With it's pleated skirt and belt I was already sold, but when I noticed the gold tone hardware I knew it had to be mine. Seriously show me a piece of clothing or an accessory with gold tone buckles and clips instead of silver and you have my instant attention.
The sizing on this dress was bang on - I'm wearing a size 20 here and am currently an 18 on top and a 20 on the bottom, so the top was a smidge loose but not to the point where it looks too big I feel. To be honest if I had a bigger bust it probably would have been right on the mark.
