Midi Dresses

What Is A Midi Dress?

We have heard of the mini and the maxi, but what is a midi dress? This is a dress where the hem hits midway between the knee and the ankle. It’s longer than a knee dress and shorter than a full-length one. Sporting a wide range of styles and materials, a midi dress can be worn from summer through to spring. Style with shoes, jackets and accessories to get the look you’re after.

The best buys for our wardrobe are those that are trans-seasonal. It’s sad to see our favourite pieces be locked away in a drawer for six months of the year. The midi dress is great as it can be worn all year round. Some ways to style your midi dress this season include:

Winter- Style your midi dress with a denim or leather jacket and cute ankle boots-add a knit beanie for extra warmth!

Summer- Style a floral midi dress with a shoulder bag and sandals. Take this piece from day to night with a pair of heels!

Autumn and Spring: A light cardigan will keep you warm when the weather starts to cool. A midi dress with sneakers is the perfect casual vibe for this time of year.
