It's a common misconception that you can't wear a dress once Summer is over [1]. A midi dress is one of the most versatile pieces you can wear in the Fall because of its hemline, which usually hits halfway between the knee and ankle. The length makes it a great pick for the transitional season [2].
Midis are easy to wear at your 9-to-5, for parties with your friends, and on date night [3]. But coming up with inventive outfit ideas can feel tiring and overwhelming, especially when you're just working with one piece. For this reason, we're showing you 28 fresh ways to style your midi dress this Fall. Read on to take a look, and shop some pieces for your rotation ahead.
