Simple and Practical, yet Edgy

Long Sleeves Maxi Dresses


Tired of layering? A long sleeves maxi dress/abaya will save you... ;)

We often choose maxi dresses especially for their extreme comfort, and for their "easy-ness to wear".. We can call it a grab-and-go-dress. But, with a twist, many maxi dresses define elegant with their vivid patterns, intricate details and vivacious color palettes.

Solid Color Maxi Dresses:

If you think the solid natural-shade maxi dress is too simple, just add the 'right' accessories like statement necklace, bold bracelets and ring, edgy belt, etc, or even a vest; and pair it with fab shoes or bag, to jazz up the look. But remember, keep the accessories small and delicate. Let the dress be the most substantial thing on your look.

Or, simply opt a vivid headscarf to go with it.

Printed Maxi Dresses:

If you don't like wearing accessories, instead of wearing a solid maxi dress, playing with printed maxi dresses. You almost need no accessories to go with it:

Style Notes:
  • If you are wearing a dress with a low-cut neckline, beside wearing your hijab/headscarf, add a scarf and wrap it around your neck to tie it all together in a sophisticated way. Or, wear a wide-and-long (huge) hijab/headscarf, and (after you cover your head and neck with it) draw the rest of it to your bosom, then pin it.
  • Opt a vivid hijab/headscarf if you are wearing a solid natural-shade dress; and go the opposite route if your dress is a printed dress.
