When it comes to the building blocks of an incredible wardrobe, the easy-to-wear midi dress is one staple no woman should be without. Whether it’s a wrap dress, a shirtdress or a chic ribbed knit one, the best midi-length dresses have the power to carry your wardrobe through the transitional weather of spring, straight into the depths of summer and beyond.
Why do we love them so much? It’s simple— you can pair them with trainers on the weekend, loafers, mules or boots for the office and sandals for a wedding; slip a T-shirt, blouse or a roll-neck underneath; pull a slouchy jumper or belt-up a classic trench over them. Basically, the midi dress has the potential to be the most versatile item in any wardrobe. There’s also a style and shape to suit everyone, so whether you’re a floral puff-sleeved dress kind of girl or more of a slip-dress minimalist, this is the staple that you can reliably turn to for any and all occasions.
The problem is, with midi dresses being such a popular style there’s an awful lot of choice out there to scroll through to find your perfect one. There are worse problems to have, of course, but if you’re looking to update your midi dress selection now that we’ve suddenly hit spring, and you’re feeling like you don’t know where to start— don’t fret. Below we’ve done the hard work for you and compiled 25 of the very best available right now.
