eVintage Blog Tag - Maxed Out!



This week's eVintage Blog Tag theme is the Maxi Dress - 'We’ve been hearing it nearly every Spring the last few years . . . the maxi dress is back! Vintage sellers rush to their stashes of full length 70s dresses ready to supply the fashion forward with the real deal. A newer spin by the industry touts the maxi length as a “patio dress”

MAXI OR PATIO DRESS, AND WHY?
I like the sound of Patio Dress, it makes the maxi seem like a more casual kind of dress, for everyday wear.

FAVORITE MAXI DRESS IN YOUR INVENTORY?
Here's a rainbow of Maxi Dress styles - a great Mexican Wedding dress - perfect for casual Summer wear, a Tropical-Hawaiian type maxi in super lightweight fabric, Black Cotton velvet maxi for the Goth Gals and a strappy Maxi-Cocktail for an evening out on the town.




AS A TREND, WILL IT BE A HIT OR A MISS?
I think a Maxi or two could easily work their way into your wardrobe. I'm not a big follower of what celebrities wear, but I have to admit that Gwen Stefani makes a Maxi look very good - for a casual day at the beach or out at a special event.




DO YOU WEAR MAXI DRESSES OR SKIRTS?
I'm short, so it's a hard look for me to pull off.

PROS AND CONS?
A Maxi dress seems like an easy outfit to put together with just a few accessories. Cons would be finding the right print and style for your height and shape.
