Question 1

How do you style a white maxi dress?

Accepted Answer

Let the simplicity of white do the work. For day, flat sandals or white trainers with a denim jacket keep it casual and easy. For evening, a heel and a gold earring are all it asks for. When it cools down, tan boots and a coat layered over the top take a white maxi into autumn. Because white reads like a neutral, a single pop of colour through a shoe or bag is an easy way to make it yours.

Question 2

Which shoes look best with a white maxi dress?

Accepted Answer

Neutral shoes are the easiest win. Tan, nude or metallic heels keep white clean and elegant, flat sandals or white trainers suit a casual summer day, and tan boots work once the weather turns. White is happy with a contrast too, so a black or brightly coloured shoe looks intentional rather than mismatched. The main thing is not to fight how crisp white already looks.

Question 3

Are white maxi dresses see-through?

Accepted Answer

The fabric decides. A lined cotton, satin or a heavier weave is usually completely opaque, while a fine linen or a crinkle style can go a little sheer in strong light. If you want to be sure, a nude seamless slip or nude underwear smooths everything and removes the guesswork. Most of our white maxis are lined, and the product page notes will flag anything sheer.
