The Fashion Chronicles: Maxi Skirt

Styling your Maxi Dress.

by Shop By Amy

 

Long-length maxi skirts are a great flexible option for almost any occasion, whatever your personal style. They can be a versatile, flattering, and often comfortable choice in any outfit. You can dress to impress in a maxi skirt, whether in the office, at a casual weekend hangout, date night, or at a formal occasion like a wedding or black-tie event.

Maxi skirts come in a wide range of different styles, materials, and even lengths.

  • It can be really easy to find the right look for any occasion. There are so many styles of maxi skirts, including ones that are A-line, circular, flowing, form-fitting, pleated, or slitted. 
  • Maxi skirts come in a range of solid colors, patterns, and prints. They are made in a wide variety of fabrics. There are skirts in fabrics like chiffon, tulle, taffeta, or velvet for more formal events.
  • Depending on the look you’re going for and your personal style, you have maxi skirts that range in length from just above the ankle at the shortest to long floor-length and floor-sweeping skirts.

 

For those who are petite or anyone concerned that a maxi skirt might overwhelm their frame, it’s only a matter of finding a skirt to fit your silhouette. There are a few different ways to elongate your look or create the appearance of more height:

  • Consider pairing your maxi skirt with a cropped top or halter top
  • Both v-necks and vertical stripes can be elongating
  • Accessories such as wide belts and high heels work well with maxi skirts

If you are of a slim, taller build, there are also some styling tips that can help you pick out the maxi skirt for you.

  • You could choose to break up the length of your look by pairing your maxi skirt with a shirt that ends up at the hip or a button-down blouse worn tied at the waist.
  • At opposite ends of the spectrum, a pencil-type maxi skirt could be a chic work look, while a billowy maxi skirt is a great choice to create a more relaxed off-the-clock out.
