When it's too cold for a mini skirt [1] and a maxi simply doesn't offer the look you want, midi dresses come to the rescue with an in-between length that's "just right." Yup, just call us Goldilocks because we made it our mission to find the best pieces in this style . . . and we sure succeeded (if we do say so ourselves).
We turned to Banana Republic because most of their options come in petite and tall sizes so you're sure to get the perfect fit (and 'fit), no matter your height [2]. Whether you're working, running errands, or planning a Valentine's Day [3] date night at home, we found dresses for each of these activities, or to take you straight through all three.
Don't believe us? Check out our favourite 24 styles that hit between your knee and your ankle, and we bet at least one catches your eye [4], too.
