Types of Long Maxi Dresses

As we already mentioned above, long dresses come in a variety of styles, from bohemian to formal, and everything in between. Here are some of the most popular types of ankle-length dresses that you can try out:

1. Flowy Bohemian Dresses: 

These casual maxi dresses have a relaxed, bohemian feel, with their flowy fabrics, bold prints, and loose silhouettes. They are the right piece of long dresses for basic casual events and beach vacations. Check our vacation dress collection to create your perfect outfit.

1. Form-Fitting Dresses: 

When attending a wedding, gala, cocktail, or formal dinner, those evening maxi dresses that hug the body and accentuate curves, are a better choice than mini dresses. They often have a slit or a train, added to them, to create room for an element of drama in the dress.

1. Strapless Dresses: 

These elegant maxi dresses have no straps or sleeves and show off the shoulders and arms. They can be flowy to form-fitting, depending on your taste and preference; and can be styled in numerous ways for various occasions.

1. Off-Shoulder Dresses: 

Dresses with straps or sleeves that sit just off the shoulders ordinarily create a romantic and feminine look. They are a great choice for any occasion because of the variety of styles that they come in.

1. Halter Dresses: 

Another group of stylish maxi dresses that anyone could entirely pull off. Dresses with a halter-neck style, with a strap or straps that wrap around the neck, can either be flowy to form-fitting, making them versatile for any occasion.

1. Wrap Dresses:  

These simple summer dresses wrap around the body and are tied at the waist. They come in a range of styles, like any of the already lengthy dresses. 

1. Shirt Dresses: 

Most of the long dresses having a shirt-style design, are casual maxi dresses. They have a design with a collar and buttons down the front. They come in a range of styles as well.

How to Choose the Right Long Dress for You

Choosing the right long dress can be a daunting task, with so many options to choose from. However, by considering a few key factors, you can find the perfect dress for any occasion. Here are some tips on how to choose the right maxi dress:

1. Body Type: Maxi dresses for women flatter a variety of body types, including hourglass, pear, apple, and athletic shapes. It's important to choose a maxi dress that flatters your body type. For example, if you have an hourglass figure, choose a dress that hugs your curves. If you have a pear-shaped figure, opt for a dress that skims over your hips and accentuates your waist. We’ve also got plus-size dresses that you can choose from.
2. Occasion: Consider the setting of the event you'd be attending when choosing your dress. A flowy bohemian yellow dress may be perfect for a beach vacation but may not be appropriate for a formal event. A formal event may require a more form-fitting dress with a dramatic train. Sometimes, a midi dress would suffice.
3. Fabric: Choose a material that suits the occasion and your body type. If it's a casual event or beach vacation, a flowy fabric would be perfect. While heavier fabrics work well for formal events.
4. Color and Print: Your style and preference should be included when choosing a color or print of cute maxi dresses. When selecting based on the occasion, a floral maxi dress or a solid-colored maxi dress is right for an event where you want to look glam and elegant.

Where to Wear Your Stylish Maxi Dresses

While we've been emphasizing the importance of looking put together when dressing up in a maxi dress, we understand that not everyone may know the occasions that call for a long dress. What you should have in mind is that these dresses are versatile, meaning you can wear them to almost all events. 

For instance, the long dress you would wear to the beach would not be the same as you would for a work dinner. You can wear a mesh dress for the former, while the latter may require tight dresses or other classy and appropriate styles. Here are some other places where you can wear a long maxi dress:

1. Weddings: Long dresses are a popular choice at weddings, especially for guests. They're comfortable yet elegant, so why not? Pair it with the right accessories and you're good to go.
2. Proms: The traditional prom dresses are Cinderella-style floor-length dresses. They are stunners because you can hardly go unnoticed in those kinds of fits.
3. Galas: A formal gala calls for stunning elegant black dresses for women in the maxi style. It's best to choose a dress that is form-fitting and elegant, with statement jewelry and heels to complete the look.
4. Vacation: For any beach vacation you may be headed to, ensure your prop on an ankle-length sexy maxi dress into your suitcase. They are perfect for lounging by the pool or walking along the beach.
5. Everyday Wear: When running errands or meeting friends, you should have your casual maxi dresses to serve as a standby for a comfy look.
