Think there's just one way to wear the maxi dress? Think again. From attention-seeking brights to laid-back looks perfect for the weekend, there's no styling option off limits.
Here's how the best-dressed street stylers wear theirs.
The one for work
Smart, column-style shapes are perfect for the office. Go for a sleek monochromatic palette and add height with a pointed suede court. For a pop of colour, try a contrasting top handle tote bag or a slick of red lipstick.
The classic denim jacket combo
It's a look that never seems to fall out of fashion for good reason. Casual and oversized, cropped and frayed - throw on your hero denim jacket with any style maxi for the ultimate off-duty look.
Refresh your posh maxi with a pair of trophy trainers
Make your evening option work even harder and take your cue from Chiara Ferragni who wears hers with a pair of crisp white trainers.
Be bold with print
Abstract prints can be pretty. Choose a chic off-the-shoulder shape and a fitted waist to make your statement motif feel instantly elegant.
Feel ultra fancy in something floaty
The joy of a super-sized maxi dress. Choose shapes with a fitted neckline, floor-grazing lengths and lashings of fabric. Wear with heels for extra swish.
Elevate your maxi with tonal accessories
Lift your look with the addition of a few key accessories. Stick to one colour and choose subtle styles that work well together. A black suede platform will compliment a leather clutch and sleek hairband, while evening styles call for flashes of gold jewellery and high-shine heels.
Go matchy-matchy
Sling a matching maxi coat over the top for a smart, street style-worthy look. Roll up the sleeves and belt at the waist with calf-height ankle boots to finish the look.
Embrace folk
The fash-pack has given folk-style frocks their super-stylish seal of approval, and there's no better way to work the trend than in a printed floor-length maxi. Martha Ward wears hers with classic tan accessories and fuss-free hair.
The splice
Turn your button-up maxi into something altogether more cool and wear over shorts, belted at the waist with plenty of split-action at the front for maximum impact.
