Midi dresses are having a real moment right now, thanks to our obsession with 90’s slip dresses and 2000’s fashion. Basically, If Monica and Rachel wore it—we want it, and so our hunt for the perfect midi dress is on. A staple part of any capsule wardrobe, they make the best summer dresses, and thanks to Warehouse, we may have found the perfect one—and it’s on sale too.

The beauty of the midi dress is that they can be dressed up and down and no matter what you do, you'll look effortlessly cool and put together. 

Even if you hate wearing dresses, there’s something appealing about throwing on one garment that makes you look cute, without worrying about it blowing up in the wind, or showing your pants when you bend over.

Warehouse has struck the perfect balance between dressy and edgy, and not only is it a 90’s classic —it also features the 2021 cut-out trends, making it perfect for summer and a night out.
