Plus-Size Midi Dresses

When it comes to finding your new favorite everyday dress, never underestimate the simplicity and ease of the plus size midi dress. For when you want more coverage than a mini and extra breeziness that a maxi dress can’t provide, that’s where midi dresses come in. Midi dresses hit somewhere between the knee and calf and can come in an array of silhouettes—from bodycon to A-line to fit-and-flare. TBH, we love them all.

Here at Dia & Co, we know the importance of being able to find the perfect midi dresses that fit well and are high in quality. That’s why we carry an array of midi dresses for women, with looks that suit every event and personal style. Let’s walk through a few different scenarios and styles to help you find your next favorite midi dress, no matter the occasion.

Find Midi Dresses for Any Occasion

• Midi Dresses for a Wedding

Weddings are the perfect place for midi dresses as they offer modest coverage for the occasion while giving you a great length to pair with almost any footwear. Midi bridesmaid dresses make great choices for this reason, too. When a wedding party gets to wear midi dresses, they won’t have to worry about too-long hemlines or too-short skirts. Comfortability is key when there’s so much going on during the couples’ Big Day, and midi dresses add ease and beauty to the whole event. The types of plus size midi dresses for weddings can vary in silhouette, but we love a great A-line, wrap, or fit-and-flare dress. Even while dancing up a storm or jumping to catch a bouquet, these styles of plus size wedding guest dresses will make movement all the more fun, gorgeous and simply effortless. 

• Cocktail Party Midi Dresses

Midi dresses can also be very formal, depending on the cut and fabric used to create them. When shopping for midi plus size cocktail dresses, think about your own personal comfort as well as the event at-hand. If the occasion calls for sequins, lace or tulle (like a gala or VIP charity event), play with unique necklines, open back styles, and silhouettes while also thinking about sleeve length if the event is more conservative. Other cocktail parties might be slightly casual and require simple wrap dresses or a slinky bodycon—either would be appropriate to wear to a cocktail and dinner party, say, at a friend’s place. Again, keep your comfort and intuition at the forefront of your decision. If you feel beautiful in it, that’s all that matters.

• Midi Graduation Dresses
  Plus size formal midi dresses come in so many different styles, but for graduation, you want to keep in mind that it’ll be warm under that cap and gown. So go with a fabric that breathes, like linen midi dresses, silk midi dresses, seersucker or lightweight poplin. Same goes for attendees who may need to sit out in the open while watching the ceremony—keep it light and effortless!

• Prom Midi Dresses
  The typical look for prom is a maxi dress or a mini fit-and-flare number—but what if you went the unconventional route and found a midi dress for your prom? A midi dress for prom offers the ease of being able to move freely about without the long skirt. These types of dresses are classic and unexpected, making them the perfect choice for this year’s prom look. 

How to Style Midi Dresses for Every Season

• Fall Midi Dresses 
  Plus size midi dresses with sleeves make great everyday dresses for fall. When it gets extra chilly towards the end of the season, style these midi dresses with opaque tights, ankle boots, hats and outerwear. Midi dresses with longer sleeves allow you to keep that feminine flair going even when it gets blustery out.  

• Spring Midi Dresses 

           Spring midi dresses are typically characterized by fun patterns, light colors and lightweight fabrics. Dresses with short sleeves or             cap sleeves are a great option for this time of year, too, as they provide a bit of sun coverage while allowing for top layers (like a                 cardigan) if needed. 

• Summer Midi Dresses
  Plus size midi summer dresses offer one-and-done outfits for the entire season. Due to their lightweight construction, midi summer dresses allow you to wear them to everything from a nice dinner date to all-day outdoor events. They can even make a great cover-up to wear to and from the beach over your swimwear. Trust us, you’ll find a whole bunch of summer midi dresses for women to stock up on here at Dia & Co.
