Modern women of fashion are often of the opinion that a long dress is exclusively an evening dress for a gala event. But this opinion is erroneous. In a dress to the floor, the girl is always in the spotlight, makes a good impression on others. This outfit gives the girl femininity and sophistication. Men always distinguish girls in maxi outfits from the crowd, so their choice should be taken seriously.

Where does the floor length dress end?
Correctly selected floor length dress is very important when creating a beautiful and seductive look. Many girls believe that a maxi dress should reach the floor itself, but this is not entirely true.
Stylists and designers are of the opinion that the ideal maxi length should be two, three or four centimeters from the floor.

Some fashionistas prefer ankle-length outfits, and this option is appropriate. But this option is not suitable for every woman. Only petite girls can afford ankle-length outfits.
A floor-length dress is a choice for special occasions when a girl wants to create a spectacular look.

When trying on a long outfit, you must follow several rules:
- First, you need to put on the shoes with which you plan to wear the dress. These can be shoes, ballet flats or sandals. The length of the dress is highly dependent on the shoes. For example, sandals with high heels will be longer than when worn with ballerinas. Many salons and shops have fitting rooms for your convenience.
- Now you should carefully look at the length of the dress in front of the mirror. By assuming a natural pose, you can see how this outfit will fit you. Do not bend or arch your back, because then the dress will rise a little, and you will not be able to see the real length.
- Standing in a natural pose in front of a mirror, you must carefully examine the dress. The classic length is 2-4 centimeters from the floor. Also, ankle-length outfit is also very popular, but more among short slender girls.

Floor-length dress with train
The length of the dress with trains can be different, because it depends entirely on the designer's imagination. This outfit is not suitable for walking on dusty streets or in the rain. If a dress with trains is made in a light tone, then it may lose its appearance on the street.

It should be understood that walking in a dress from a train is not a very simple matter. To get started, you should practice a little at home. Do not forget that the train can be spoiled by the carelessness of others, so you must always be on the lookout.
