Why Black Maxi Dresses?

There are many Maxi Dresses on the high street and online stores in an assortment of floral, paisley, patterned and plain with no real limits on colours available. When buying Maxi Dresses be sure to find a colour and design that complements your skin tone to gain the most flattering look and make sure that it fits you correctly. Maxi dresses are meant to be floor length but what you don’t want is something dragging on the floor behind you, this is something we really should try and avoid!

Tie-dye tends to be the safest option especially for newbie’s to Maxi Dresses, bright colours can be very cheerful and are perfect for hot summer’s days and dark block colours especially Black Maxi Dresses can be very demure, sophisticated and slimming! Be careful with pastel colours though, pastels are not the easiest of colour choices to pull off and what you don’t want is to emulate a little girl on their way to school! Also be wary of bizarre colour combinations that clash as they can often leave you looking like a clown, and we definitely don’t want that!

If experimenting is really not your thing, it’s probably best to stick with floral patterns or block colours like Black Maxi Dresses. You can’t really make a floral or Black Maxi Dress look bad, therefore you can’t go wrong! The great thing about wearing Black dresses is that you are free to do with it what you like and anyone can wear them. If you want to dress it up you can because it’s basically a blank canvas! On the other hand it can simple and basic for day wear in summer. I would avoid wearing black on scorching days as it does tend to attract the heat but this all depends on the fabric, light fabrics in any colour can be rather cooling. Another great thing about Maxi Black Maxi Dresses is that they are not usually see-through and therefore we do not have to worry about embarrassing noticeable underwear which is often the case in White Maxi dresses. Bonus!

How to wear Black Maxi Dresses!

For a simple and casual day look, wear it as it is with flip-flops or gladiators, oversized sunglasses and a chunky mesh of fabric bag. Accessories should be kept to a minimum but a nice chunky necklace would set the look off nicely and if the weather is rather cool a denim jacket will complement the look. For evening wear anything goes! You have the blank canvas to do whatever you like with it, wear flats, wedges or any heals, chunky accessories work best or a for bit of glitz and glam add some sparkle. You could try adding a nice belt to accentuate the waist and if you want to wear a jacket try a shrug or Blazer. Hair can worn up for a demure sophisticated look or down for Bo ho chic.
