Midi dresses are any type of dress, body con, empire waist, or maxi-inspired, that hit at your mid-calf. It covers most of your legs and yet is enough to keep you look sexy and stylish.
Jessica Alba recently wore a monochrome checked midi dress from Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2013 to the Warner Bros. and InStyle Party following the Golden Globes event early this year. Alexa Chung was seen in a Chanel midi dress while Kiera knightley opted for a gorgeous printed midi dress by Mary Katrantzou. Kristin Cavallari sported a chic violet midi dress, cinched in with a silver belt, to the Rachel Roy show last year.
