Karen Kane

Newlyweds Lonnie and Karen Kane had a strong belief that women should always feel beautiful and comfortable. They started the brand in a humble Studio City, L.A., garage in 1979 with a colorful collection of silk tops. Today, Karen Kane offers a full line of simple, laid-back, luxe apparel for women of all sizes. The company manufactures about 90 percent of its collection in the USA.

Fit amazingly well

Really surprised at how a simple black dress could fit so flatteringly well. Yes, you need some curves, A bust and hips. it's so playful and comfortable. I got it in XS 5'3, 116lbs

Usually like Karen Kane dresses

I have a few Karen Kane dresses and this one seems to have not a lot of shape to it. I will return it.

Horrible Smell

It looks like the dress came from Amazon. It was in a ready to ship bag with the green stripe which means it’s a return and it had the horrible Amazon smell that many returns have. I never tried the dress on. I’m so disappointed in Nordstrom. I will be returning the dress because I know from my Amazon experience that the smell won’t wash out.
