Attention, fellow dress-wearers. You know, the people who rotate the same six midi dresses and make them work for the office, weekends and date night?
If you've cleverly worked out that wearing smock dresses are 1) easy to chuck on 2) already a 'complete outfit' 3) look like you've made an effort, then you're ahead of the game, hun.
Yep, we have some intel on the whole frock front and it seems the fashion world is going bananas for the midaxi dress.
What is a midaxi dress?
It's the love child of the midi and maxi dress and we now can't picture us wearing anything different.
Instead of skimming the bottom of your knees or er, the floor, the midaxi hits the sweet spot of your leg.
Essentially, we don't want to look like Kate Middleton attending a charity gala and we also don't want to trip over our own dresses like J-Law at the Oscars circa 2013.
Now you're acquainted with the new wardrobe staple, let's have a look at the very best the high street has to offer...
