A classic, versatile item with a fashionable edge; the midaxi dress serves us for work and play, day and night…
There’s a reason the midaxi has become a classic: it’s the ultimate day-to-night piece. Wear with a knit and tights for the office, then take them off for after-work events, or swap your daytime blazer for a tuxedo jacket, clutch bag and a great pair of earrings. “Our customers are packing after-work drinks, dinners, gallery openings into their work-from-office days. For a versatile, but easy look, you can’t beat a great dress,” according to Polly Mc Master, founder of The Fold, an online womenswear label for professionals. “A good dress is smart enough for the office, but playful enough for heading out after work, and with a quick update to your make-up, will make you feel put together.”
