From Mini to Long: Get to Know Your Dress Lengths


Dress lengths vary from super short to floor length, and everything in between which are all just as beautiful! Defining your style is simple once you find the dress length that’s right for you, so take a look at the tips below to get you started:

Keep it Short & Sweet:

Mini dresses or dresses that end at the thighs are the shortest dresses. Versatile semi-formal, mini dresses are typically form fitting and sexy, but can be loose fitting and casual or fitted in a cute flirty fit. Well, if you love the freedom and style of a short dress, then slip on your favorite pair of flats or heels and throw on a mini dress for a casual, semi casual or semi formal event.

Meet in the Middle:

Knee length dresses, also known as mid dresses or midi dresses, are typically dresses that stop anywhere from just above the knee to mid calf. In terms of midi dress styles, you can opt for cocktail length dresses with a-line or fitted cut. Mid length dresses with skirts are suitable for all ages and all occasions ranging from casual to semi formal. A midi dress can be worn for a formal event depending on the style and the adornments. For the busy career woman who is always on the go and needs a closet full of fashionable day-to-night wear but doesn’t have much time to shop, mid dresses are a great choice. You can sport a mid-length dress with great sandals, your favorite boots, sophisticated pumps or sexy heels.

Maxi-mize Your Style:

Full length dresses or tea length dresses rest at the ankles. A casual or semi casual maxi dress is great for relaxed family celebrations, barbecues, and vacations, a versatile, fashionable, comfortable, and great dress. Are you going to a semi formal or formal event? For fancier events a tea length embellished dress is sophisticated, but feminine. Boho style lovers will find full length maxi dresses that will fit their fancy.

Get Swept Away:

Floor length hemline dresses are long dresses styled in casual to formal design. Your long dress could have a short or long train fitting the dress. It could be a classic long dress, an A-line with fitted bodice, or a full ball gown with tulle and lace, depending on the event. The floor sweeping skirt is common for pageant dresses, gala dresses, bridal party dresses and black tie dresses that come with a simple elegant design to an elaborate sequined or beaded design. The tightness of the embellishments, color and fabric of the dress are all triable factors in determining if a gown is dressy or casual.

Dresses do come with designated lengths, but the hemlines on dresses of the same length will differ according to height and body shape. If the dress length listed is something you want, measure from your collarbone to the bottom of your dress, and check if that length is also listed.

When choosing a dress length always be mindful of the event and the venue. A micro mini could be a fashion faux pas to show up to a formal affair but that same mini dress would be just right for a nightclub too. 

Following the dress code guidelines above for your event and using these tips for the perfect dress length, you’ll be sure to find the dress in Passion For Fashion that makes you feel comfortable and beautiful.
