{"id":7627,"count":0,"description":"The biggest problem with maxi dresses is not the style. It is the proportions. A dress that hits the floor beautifully on a five foot eight model can absolutely bury someone shorter, swamping the waist, losing the shape, turning what should be an elegant length into something that just reads as too much fabric. We have been specifically hunting for the maxi dresses that solve this. The ones with waist definition that actually sits where it should. The ones with slits, tiered hems, or structured bodices that give the silhouette somewhere to go rather than just falling straight to the ground. Some are better for petite frames specifically. Others work across heights because the cut is simply more considered than most. We have looked at fabric weight too, because a maxi in something too stiff or too sheer behaves completely differently to one cut in something with the right amount of movement and body. Length flatters when the rest of the dress is doing its job properly. These are the maxi dresses where the rest of the dress is absolutely doing its job.","link":"https:\/\/clairewears.co.uk\/clairespicks\/product-category\/dresses-worth-actually-buying\/maxi-dresses-that-dont-swamp-you\/","name":"Maxi Dresses That Don't Swamp You","slug":"maxi-dresses-that-dont-swamp-you","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":7541,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Maxi Dresses That Don&#039;t Swamp You Archives - Claire Wears<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/clairewears.co.uk\/clairespicks\/product-category\/dresses-worth-actually-buying\/maxi-dresses-that-dont-swamp-you\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Maxi Dresses That Don&#039;t Swamp You Archives - Claire Wears\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The biggest problem with maxi dresses is not the style.
