Having a romantic night out? Want to stir things up with a change of style? All Maxi Dresses gives you three reasons why we think the little black dress is out and the maxi black dress is so in!
1) The Sophisticated Sweetheart
Corset Knit Maxi Dress, $98, Sabine Jaquard
The sweetheart neckline is much more interesting with a maxi skirt pairing it up. Just like this Sabine Jaquard design, the sweetheart neckline shows off the shoulders– which is as sexy as legs or cleavage, studies say. The flowy long skirt gives the look sophistication and class that is apt for restaurants and even the theater.
2) The Sheer Darling
Shirred Corset Silk Maxi Dress, $426, Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent
Sheer or semi-sheer maxi dresses gives an impression of skin– without being too over the top. Materials like silk adhere to your shape but keeps it in the shadows, combining style and danger in a dress. Jewelry also looks gorgeous with these peek-a-boo dresses.
3) The Natural Beauty
Santiago Jersey Print Maxi Dress, $328, Marc by Marc Jacobs
Maxi dresses usually feature floral designs. This floral number from Marc by Marc Jacobs does it so well that while it is a gorgeous dress, it doesn’t fail to highlight on important thing: you! Choose dresses that show you off properly. You are the one who got asked out anyway, not the dress.
