There are some simple tips that will come in handy when choosing a dress with a midi length.

The length of the dress should be chosen carefully, pickiness will not hurt here, but will only play into the hands. There are three more acceptable options:

• slightly below the knee;
• in the middle of the lower leg;
• slightly above the ankle.

Growth doesn't really play a role in realizing the desire to have a midi dress in your wardrobe. In such an outfit, tall girls will be good, but short ladies can also shine in a similar dress. Just do not forget about the optimal length of the dress and shoes with heels.

Choosing a midi dress model is not a problem, because the available range of outfits is huge and varied.

It is on the last question that it is worth stopping and considering in detail the available options for midi evening dresses.

In modern evening fashion, a special place is given to the style of the 50s "new look". It can be recognized by its fluffy skirts and clear lines that outline the waist. He is present in the collections of Marchesa, Georges Hobeika and Zuhair Murad.

This style is embodied in satin dresses with gold embroidery, airy models, bright items with shiny decor and appliques.

Lingerie style quickly burst into the world of evening fashion. Fashionistas liked him and even stars began to appear at social events in dress-combinations with a midi length.

A good material for dresses of this style is the finest silk, which can be decorated with feathers and lace. Delicate shades of pink and white colors that have filled the Nina Ricci collection are relevant. Black and red models from Zac Posen are capable of adding intrigue to the image.

For attending a strict event, where you also want to shine with your impeccable taste, a sheath dress with a knee-length skirt is suitable. Accessories and decoration will help smooth out the conservatism in this image.

The choice of models is large enough. This is an elegant, moderately strict and only slightly conservative lace dress, and a dress with an unusual pattern and textured dense fabric.

Valentin Yudashkin took flesh-colored fabric as a basis and decorated it with sequins.

Dolce & Gabbana's designers had a different idea of ​​what a midi sheath dress should look like, so they created it from brightly colored patent leather. But everyone was surpassed by the Miu Miu brand - their midi dresses were created at the expense of thousands of multi-colored sequins, from which brilliant pictures emerged.

We all know about an indispensable element in a woman's wardrobe - a little black dress that slightly exposes the knees. This is a versatile option that can be given the necessary character through accessories and jewelry.

Lace has always been associated with romance, sweetness and mystery. Such dresses are relevant at any time of the day, anywhere and on any girl. Unless the color can be changed - during the day, let the dress be light, and in the evening - dark or even black.

The relevance of such an evening dress does not fade away throughout the year. For the cold period, designers offer a large number of knitted models and knitted dresses, and for the summer, let there be light dresses made of airy fabrics. Surprisingly, the shape of the sleeve can be used for body shaping.

What was popular in the 1920s is returning to modern fashion. Fringe became the main element of midi evening dresses. The Marchesa brand has dedicated a whole collection to this decor. Patterns were created from the fringe, in some models it covered the dress along its entire length, and somewhere it fell almost to the floor.

A very good style for a dress with open shoulders is a corset bodice with a fluffy skirt or vice versa - with a fitted one.

Maintaining proportion is the main rule when choosing outerwear for an evening midi dress. There are several options:

• a long cloak covering the skirt;
• a long coat is not shorter than a dress;
• short blazer or jacket;
• coat, short fur coat or vest.

Accessories for the dress are needed, but in their selection, you must strictly adhere to the measure. Examine your dress carefully. If it is bright and expressive in itself, for example, has flounces or fringe, then you can do without accessories altogether.

For a modest black dress, you can choose neat earrings, a string of pearls or other laconic jewelry.

If you are not sure about the relevance and combination of accessories, then you can always adopt certain rules:

• all colors in clothes and accessories are selected in accordance with the girl's color type;
• universal shoes are classic shoes that fit all styles;
• the color of the shoes can repeat the color of the dress or contrast with a simple dress of a solid color;
• a clutch bag may be brighter than a dress, but it should be in harmony with shoes;
• a simple dress allows you to choose massive jewelry.

Shoes, or rather the height of the heel, is chosen depending on the height of the woman. Medium and short stature requires the choice of stiletto heels - these can be ankle boots, shoes or ankle boots. The last version of the shoe should not be covered by the hem of the dress.

All the star ladies literally pounced on midi dresses. The versatility of this outfit was to the liking of many Hollywood film stars, so they did not miss the opportunity to once again demonstrate their ideal forms, slender legs and seductive body curves.
