What to wear with a midi dress

A midi dress is the most adaptable length in a wardrobe. With flat sandals and a straw bag it suits a summer lunch or a vacation evening. Add a heel and a pair of statement earrings and the same dress is ready for a wedding or a dinner reservation. In cooler months, a cropped cardigan or a tailored blazer over the shoulders keeps the proportions balanced.

How to style a midi dress for a wedding

Choose a fabric with some texture, such as lace, eyelet or a soft satin, and keep accessories simple so the dress leads. Puff sleeves and smocked bodices photograph well and stay comfortable through a long day.
