How to Wear a Maxi Dress, Short or Tall!

This Spring and Summer trend is definitely the wonderful, comfortable Maxi Dress. 

The Maxi dress is amazingly flattering!

Wondering if you can wear a Maxi dress?

Are you petite? Feel like the maxi dresses are too long?

Are you tall? Wonder if the maxi dresses will look flattering?

Take a look as we show you some of our new Maxi Dresses

on a petite woman and a tall woman to get some ideas.

 You'll see that practically everyone can wear 

a Maxi Dress! Even celebrities can teach us 

how to wear them...

Here's Sandra Bullock for example:

We took a cue from Sandra and 

loved how she adapted the Maxi dress to fit 

her smaller frame by tying up the bottom of the dress...

 By tying small knots at the bottom of the Maxi dress

you can adjust it to fit any length needed...

 So what if you happen to be quite tall?

See here how wonderful the Maxi dress

looks on tall women...and check out some of

what's new at Whimsy so you can find a Maxi dress

for yourself!
