Reasons Why Maxi Dress Are the Best Thing Ever
Across all contexts, they are appropriate
Not that we don’t love our casual clothes when the context calls for it, but brace yourselves for a further argument against the denim, which will result in maxi dress: 2; jeans: 0. Unless you’re attending casual Friday—or if you have a really, really chill workplace—jeans are not suitable work attire. But do you know what is? A maxi dress! And it’s also suitable at home, or when you’re eating out, or when you’re going shopping, or when you’re attending a formal event. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a context where a maxi dress will not do the trick.
Going to the beach? Wear a maxi dress. Going immediately from there to the movies or the theatre? Add a blazer and trade the thongs for heels or wedges. It’s amazing how by changing up the accessories, you’re changing up the whole look. And this can be super convenient when a girl is flitting from social engagement to social engagement!
They're 
always in style
Most importantly, maxi dresses are so classic that they’re one true constant across time. They virtually do not age. They rose to popularity in the 1960s and are still turning heads 60 years on. What makes the maxi dress so timeless? Honestly, it’s the seemingly endless varieties. Even in this post, you’ve thus far seen eight different maxi dresses and they all have different cuts and colours.
When it comes to colours, patterns, styles, and fabrics, the combinations are almost endless. And if you’re keen for a maxi dress to see you through this season and beyond, we recommend something in a single colour—with a classic cut. Imagine having a constant companion in your closet that you could always reach for. And as each season passed by, the only thing you’d need to change would be your accessories!
The maxi train is waiting for you
So, have we sold it to you? Maxi dresses are the best thing ever, right? Think about it: they’re almost as comfy as your PJs, but they look way more presentable than that. They’re almost a complete outfit in themselves and require minimal styling. They look great on, they can be worn in almost any setting, and they never go out of style. Whoever invented the maxi dress was onto a winner! We’re definitely stocking up this summer—and we think you should, too. All hail the maxi dress!
They look amazing on
Well, obviously they look great on, or else why would we even recommend them? But they perpetually look great on, even on your worst days. A lot of maxi dresses have an A-line cut, and even if they don’t, they’re typically long and flowing. They fall in a way that touches on your curves and is also forgiving of any areas of which you’re not the greatest fan. If your maxi has a V-neckline, this can help to elongate your figure. If you want to emphasise the waist, simply cinch it with a belt. This will also elongate the legs more.
