Karen Millen

Karen Millen was the shop I wished I could afford to buy clothes in back when I was a student. I used to float in, touch the lovely things and try on dresses, then slink out in the guilty knowledge that I would nt be spending any money in there any time soon! Now, being a grown woman of 32, with a job (!), I can afford the clothes in Karen Millen - but I rarely actually shop there! Let me explain why... The store environment is straightforward - racks of clothes around the edge and down the centre, with clothes arranged by design and colour. There are mirrors on the shop-floor, and happily not too many items are folded. This is always a turn-off for ...  Read the complete review

Karen Millen is a premium high street fashion brand. Her clothes are vibrant and expensive. The fabrics she uses are high quality such as silk and heavy satins. There are Karen Millen shops all over the country but they are in the larger towns and cities. Shops are usually quiet with white walls and floors. The garments are packed in a little making seeing them a little difficult. Although the clothes look great on the hanger they just don't seem to suit me. The colours are far too bright and sizes seem way out.

Karen Millen - there are many mixed reviews. The shop is well laid out and the rails are not overstuffed which is a pleasant change. The items are well displayed and the store is clean and bright.

Their returns policy means no cash back therefore you need to be sure that 1. you definately want to ...  Read the complete review

I think their returns policy is terrible. I had stiching come out of a top in two places before I even got out of the door on the first night of wearing. The snooty sales assistant refused to exchange it saying I should stitch it up myself. Karen Millen HQ agreed to a refund 3 months ago when I sent the item back and I am still waiting for it, despite chasing them. That was the first and last time I buy from Karen Millen.

I LOVE BUYING KAREN MILLEN BUT NEVER TRY ANYTHING INSTORE AND i HAVE A HABIT OF RETURNING STUFF AT LEAST ONCE EVERY 2 MONTHS AND i HAVE RECIEVED NOTHING BUT GOOD SERVICE ALL THE TIME...SO MAYBE YOU JUST CAME UP AGAINST A BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSON...
