A midi dress is one of those sartorial sweet spots. It’s such a chic fashion choice - if you’re shorter, it will cover below your knees, so you miraculously as if your legs go on forever.

For taller women, it can help you look a little more proportional. There’s no worry of bending over, as a mini may cause, or yards of fabric to make you feel swamped, like a maxi. Like Goldilocks happening upon the baby bed, a midi is just right.

Summer is (fingers crossed) just around the corner, and that means it’s almost time to pull your dresses out from the back of the wardrobe. If you feel like your dress collection is in need of an update then here are some of the loveliest midi dresses out there to suit all budgets, tastes, sizes and shapes.

This is a beautiful floral midi dress that will easily take you from day to night. Pair with flats or wedges and an oversized beach bag for a daytime look, or pair with heels and an evening bag for a night time look.

There’s a mix of cute pastel colours; pink, blue and yellow and added ruffles and a capped sleeve for another feminine touch. Available in sizes 8 to 18.

There’s 30 per cent off everything on Boohoo at the moment too so you can get the new summer dress you deserve for less.

This beautiful eye-catching dress brings the sweetest springtime florals, delicately stitched in shades of pretty pink and blue.

The off-the-shoulder style makes this an usual dress which is sure to command attention, whether you’re at a back garden barbeque or strolling down the street.

It’s made of cotton too so you can be sure of staying cool all day long, no matter how hot the sun gets. It also features two side slant pockets so it’s practical as well as pretty. Available in sizes XS to XL.

If you love bold prints and bright colours then this is the summer dress for you. It has a simple but sophisticated design, with a straight cut, button detail and a mao neckline.

The main colour of the dress is red, but the contrasting blue stripes give the dress depth, while the decorative belt pulls it in securely around the waist in a flattering way.

It’s made of 100 per cent cotton too so you can be sure of staying cool.
