eVintage Blog Tag - Maxed Out!

This week eVintage is talking about maxi dresses. I've been tagged by Ang at Vintage or Bust to answer a few questions.

MAXI OR PATIO DRESS, AND WHY?

Lately designers have taken to calling maxi dresses a patio dress. I suppose they think it sounds better. I personally don't have a preference, though "patio dress" does make me think happy thoughts of drinks with friends on the patio!

FAVORITE MAXI DRESS IN YOUR INVENTORY?

This gorgeous vintage 70's boho maxi. It's so beautifully made with smocking at the bodice, belled sleeves and yummy lace trim.



AS A TREND, WILL IT BE A HIT OR A MISS?

For those who are tall and thin it's sure to be a hit!

DO YOU WEAR MAXI DRESSES OR SKIRTS?

I so wish I could! However I'm 5' 4" and not exactly "thin" so it's not the most flattering look for me.

PROS AND CONS?

I'm thrilled that the maxi look is back in as there are some really amazing vintage maxi dresses out there (particularly from the 70's) that deserve to be seen again! However there are also some reallllly fugggly vintage maxi's out there that will only survive by being hemmed up to minis!

Now hop on over to see what Holly at Confessions of a Fashion Diva has to say about the maxi dress!
