What Shoes Can I Wear With My Maxi Dress?

SandalsYou can never have enough shoes, but we often run out of space long before desire. No matter how limited your shoe wardrobe, there is bound to be a pair that works with your maxi dress.

The key consideration, as with any outfit, is how formal or informal do I want to be? If you’re attending a formal function such as a wedding or a graduation then you might want to wear heels for the long and sophisticated look. However, if you’re going to be on your feet all day or the weather is particularly hot, you can take a step in the right direction with gladiator sandals; they aren’t much less formal but they can be much more comfortable.

With an informal event such as a party or dinner out then wedge heels can give you a lift without straying into too formal. Gladiator sandals, again, form a pleasing, practical alternative, but also consider a low-cut sandal with a full strap – as the eye wanders down the maxi dress that strap will form a strong full stop without compromising on comfort.

At a truly casual event like a trip to the beach or strolling around town, then pretty much anything goes. Flats, flip-flops, even cowboy boots work well in combination with a maxi dress. Don’t be afraid to let those toes wiggle about in freedom; maxi dresses are all about movement and expression. Equally, try on a full shoe of your choosing and you might be pleasantly surprised. Maxi dresses tend to cover calves and ankles so you really can go straight from dress into shoe and not worry about it.

Boots can be tricky to wear with maxi dresses as the length of the dress covers the height of the boot, but don’t assume that the look won’t work! Maxi dresses are a great choice for festivals due to their practicality and easy wear, but being forced to choose sandals in inch deep mud is just unfair. Wellies go with maxi dresses just fine, especially if you can find them in bold colours. Don’t overload on floral patterns though – if your dress is patterned, make sure your boots aren’t. Try ShopStyle for some interesting deals.

Wellington boots work with maxi dresses because they’re chunky, which provides a nice contrast to the light and flowing maxi dress. Other sturdy shoes can make a fine fit as well, but it is much harder as maxi dresses are usually best accompanied by footwear that accentuates their relaxed style. There’s no reason not to be bold and try it however, a pair of canvas lo-tops might be just the thing you need.

Truly, there is a shoe to fit every maxi dress, and often any shoe will do.
