5 Ways To Style A Maxi Dress (For Different Body Shapes)

Maxi dresses spell comfort and suit mostly all body types. But if not styled correctly maxi dresses can look as if you are wearing a nightgown! Here are the 5 key tips on how to style a maxi-dress focusing on your body shape. 

5 Ways To Style A Maxi Dress (For Different Body Shapes)

1. Cinch that waist

Best suited if you have a straight body (or with weight around your tummy!) a belt adds shape. Make sure the belt is about 2-3 inches wide so that it can clearly give a 'break' in the straight shape of the maxi dress. I wore a tan belt over a Rachel Red Maxi dress. If you are lean then add shape to your waist by wearing an empire line.

The week has almost come to an end, I know its still Thursday but in India the 6th of March is a holiday - its HOLI time! Before you get all soaked up in color check out today's outfit post.

Here's a dress that I wanted to share. Its a red lace maxi dress that I wore in the post I did a few days ago. Remember the red dress showing up in the pictures for an evening out hair do (check it HERE)

Outfit Post: Red Lace Dress 

The dress is made of red floral lace with a black stretchable satiny fabric underneath. This gives dimension to the red color. On the waist area there are two plain red ribbon bands to cut the monotony of the lace. The fall of the fabric gives it a very dreamy romantic look. I wanted to play around a bit while doing the shoot so after my initial click I picked up these flowers and just posed :)
