Frequently asked questions
What length is a maxi dress?
Our maxi dresses are 132cm to 145cm long, depending on style. The length is measured from the highest shoulder point to the hem. Exact length is listed on each product page. If you’re petite (under 165cm), we recommend filtering by shorter maxi options or checking each product’s length spec before ordering.
Are maxi dresses good for plus size?
Yes maxi dresses are one of the most flattering silhouettes for plus size women. The full length elongates, the right neckline draws the eye up, and the flowing skirt skims rather than clings to the hips and thighs. Look for v-necklines, side ruching and skirts cut full enough to drape not stretchy fabrics that cling.
Do you have maxi dresses with sleeves?
Yes we stock long sleeve maxi dress styles, 3/4 sleeve maxis and cap sleeve options alongside our sleeveless styles. Filter by sleeve length on the collection page. Long sleeve maxi dresses are particularly popular in autumn and winter, and as travel dresses for cooler-climate destinations.
Can I wear a maxi dress to a wedding?
Absolutely. Many of our maxi dresses are designed specifically for wedding guests, with elegant fabrics and considered necklines. See our Wedding Guest Dresses and Mother of the Bride collections for occasion-specific maxis. Avoid white, ivory and cream — those are reserved for the bride.
What fabrics are FEMIQN maxi dresses made from?
Most are jersey, viscose, chiffon, cotton blends or polyester crepe. We choose fabrics that drape well, breathe in Australian heat and wash easily. Fabric is listed on every product page. For travel and everyday wear, jersey and stretch viscose are our top fabric recommendations they don’t wrinkle and wash easily.
Are maxi dresses suitable for petite women?
Yes we offer maxi styles that work for shorter heights. Look for cuts with a higher waistline and lighter fabrics that don’t drag. Some styles can be tailored shorter if needed. We don’t offer free hemming, but most maxi dresses can be tailored locally for $20–40 to suit your height.
