Styling Your Maxi Dress From General Pants
Styling a maxi dress can be as simple as pairing it with your favourite sneakers or you can take your look to the next level with a pair of heels, a jacket and some statement jewellery. Maxi dresses can be styled differently depending on the colour and style of the dress. White, flowy dresses are ideal for the beach and can be styled with thongs and a stylish pair of sunglasses.

Maxi Dresses FAQs:
How do I choose the right length for a maxi dress?
Consider your height and the type of footwear you plan to wear with the dress. Ideally, a maxi dress should graze the tops of your feet or slightly touch the floor when you are barefoot. If you are petite, opt for an ankle length dress that sits just above the foot to avoid overwhelming your frame. For taller individuals, ensure the dress reaches your desired length.
Can I wear a maxi dress for formal occasions?
Yes, maxi dresses can be perfect for formal occasions. Our maxi dress range includes more luxury fabrics like silk, chiffon or lace that add to the maxi dress sophistication. Pairing the dress with high heels, statement jewellery and a chic clutch can elevate your look for weddings, galas or other formal events.
How do I style a maxi dress for cooler weather?
To style a maxi dress for cooler weather, layer it with cosy pieces. Add a fitted turtleneck or a long-sleeve top underneath the dress for extra warmth. You can also pair it with a cardigan, denim jacket or a chunky knit sweater on top. Finish the look with ankle boots or closed-toe shoes and accessorise with a scarf and a hat for added style and warmth.
