FAQ
What is a midi dress?
A midi dress has a hem that falls between the knee and the ankle, usually around mid-calf. It's one of the most versatile lengths, polished enough for work and easy enough for weekends.
What shoes go with a midi dress?
Flat sandals, espadrilles or sneakers keep it casual. Low or block heels lift it for work or evening. Choose the height to match the occasion and the hemline.
Are linen and cotton midi dresses good for work?
Yes. The linen shirt dress, A-line and fit and flare midis have clean lines that sit well under a blazer, and natural fabrics stay comfortable through a long day.
Do your midi dresses have pockets?
Several do, including the Striped Square Neck Linen Midi, the tunic dress and the T-Shirt Dress. Each product page lists the details.
How do I care for linen and gauze midi dresses?
Wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang or lay flat to dry. Gauze never needs ironing, and linen can be lightly steamed for a crisper look.
