How to Style a Maxi Dress from AM to PM

How to Style a Maxi Dress from AM to PM

As our lives return to some semblance of normality, diaries begin to fill with plans, and more of us return to the office for at least part of the week, the need for pieces that bridge the gap between day and evening-appropriate wear becomes ever more pressing. This is where the humble maxi dress - a bona fide sartorial chameleon in the sphere of women’s dresses - comes into its own.  

A perennial staple that has evergreen potential, the style as we know it now first made an appearance in the 1960s. Since then, it has been rendered in a plethora of fabrics, cloaked in a spectrum of colours, and doused in a whole host of prints to guarantee that there’s a version of it to suit every penchant, taste and season.

You might already have one (or four) maxi dresses filling your collection, but there’s a lot of undiscovered potential in this staple. Hardly event-exclusive, the right maxi dress outfits transcend seasons and settings to shore up your capsule wardrobe, pique each sartorial interest and satisfy every taste.

Choose Classic

This is one for the purists, those who believe in simplicity and minimalism - after all, if something isn’t broken, why fix it? 

Opt for clean cuts and simple women’s maxi dresses that act as the canvas to additional pieces.  This is the design through which to celebrate your wardrobe heroes from sunrise to well past sunset. Light-wash denim jackets can be swapped for our Cropped Bouclé Knit Jacket to transport your look into those post-sundown hours. Opt for kitten-heel mules for a comfortable yet elevated approach to AM-PM style; low enough to ensure you keep your footing while creating height, they’re an elegant sign-off that speaks to candlelit dinners and blends into surroundings filled with the sounds of clinking glasses and the popping of champagne corks. 

For back-to-back weekends and minibreaks, opt for our Statement Sleeve Tiered Maxi Dress + Belt topped with a V-neckline and dramatic short sleeves. With an optional belt, it effortlessly switches between a pared-back daytime look and a polished evening one when you cinch in your waist and swap high-top trainers for pointed-toe heels.

Bet On Boho

It might be at the more relaxed end of the fashion spectrum, but don’t let that fool you into thinking boho-inflected maxi dresses can’t also play a role in your PM wardrobe.


The perfect solution to combatting rising temperatures, summer maxi dresses defined by lightweight fabrics with natural textures that never need to be ironed speak to both day and evening penchants with polished panache, wherever you’re seeking sunshine. Crafted from pure cotton to keep you cool, our Cheesecloth Flared Sleeve Maxi Dress is shaped to a relaxed silhouette and features a bold, peachy shade that instantly brightens your wardrobe’s colour palette and will be deftly offset by sculptural jewellery or simple basics.


Easy to pack into your suitcase, a simple boho-style maxi is an AM-PM alternative to classic summer dresses and acts as the perfect accompaniment to days on the sand that transition to evenings in beachside restaurants. In bold colour-pop shades or soft neutrals, these holiday dresses double up as cover-ups for your swimsuit or bikini, and act as a versatile backdrop to your pick of jewellery and accessories when it comes to dressing up your look.  

Endlessly versatile, a printed iteration like our Peony Print Boho Maxi Dress + Belt needs little to no additions as you transition between AM and PM. In contrast, a pattern-free one topped with a V-neckline complements layered gold necklaces and calls for only a pop of bright lipstick before you arrive at dinner reservations. Turn to footwear detailed with luxe touches to ensure there’s no need to carry a pair of heels with you throughout the day if you don’t have time to make a stop-off at home before the evening arrives. Our Buckle Block Heel Sandal is crafted from Italian leather and detailed with luxe, gold-toned buckles to chime with both settings without appearing overly formal or dressy.

Rooting For Romance

For the sartorial softies and your inner romantic, ruffled trims, broderie details and floral prints come to the fore on maxi dresses that inspire a sense of romance day and night.

Not only the reserve of weddings and cocktail soirees, these maxi dresses can also elevate daytime looks paired with cropped denim jackets or light-as-air knits in milder months while retaining a polished finish that speaks to evening styling. 

Lean into the look with a bright red lip and celebrate decorative detailing by dialling back on ornate earrings and overly embellished necklaces. Instead, turn to minimal jewellery pieces that won’t distract from the design like studs or miniature hoops.

Androgynous Appeal

While we know dresses are inherently feminine, women’s maxi dresses and their many guises don’t play into that stereotype. 

Anything but one-dimensional when we consider their far-reaching potential, the styles’ androgynous appeal is proven when they play a central role in masculine-inflected looks. Harnessing a borrowed-from-the-boys preference for tailoring, turn to blazers in colour-pop shades or classic prints to round off a simply cut maxi. Slipped on with a pair of polished brogues, it ensures your look is equally appropriate for a day at the office as an evening out with friends without appearing overly formal or stuffy. 

With city-to-countryside versatility by the bucket-load, this look can also be signed off with ankle boots and oversized jackets in classic country checks when you’re swapping a stool in a cocktail bar for a welcoming armchair in a village gastropub. 

Our Supersoft Cotton Poplin Tiered Maxi Dress + Belt marries a neat collar with soft tiers for a feminine-meets-masculine edge, while the bright, saturated shade complements confidently colourful and pared-back pieces to suit your mood. During the day, style it with low-top leather trainers featuring sporty side stripes and lift the flattering dipped hem a little further off the ground come evening with a wedge heel that adds height without being too dainty.

Our Silk Kashmir Floral Maxi Dress celebrates a print defined by scattered blooms and is trimmed with a sporty side stripe that instantly places the piece in both day and evening collections without any extra effort on your part. All you need to consider now is shoes. When temperatures aren’t rising, look to leather Chelsea boots and swap them for block-heel sandals positioned below the dipped hem on blue-sky days. For spring and summer versatility, embrace the combination of a playful print and frill trims by turning to our Bright Paisley Maxi Dress shaped to a sleeveless silhouette that falls gracefully in tiers to the hem at your ankles.

If bouquets of blooms don’t send your heart all aflutter, embroidered detailing that hints to florals are an easy compromise that still softens the classic silhouette for a swoon-worthy finish. Whether they cloak the entire piece or only play a part on trims around the cuffs or neckline, broderie blooms happily find a home in day and evening surroundings while guaranteeing your look needs no extra embellishments between getting ready in the morning and stepping out in the evening.

In a statement-making orange hue, our Broderie Maxi Dress is crafted from breathable cotton embroidered with broderie blooms, shaped to a tiered construction and topped with short sleeves that pouf out gently on either side of the V-neckline. This harmony of contrasts - a neat neckline with a soft tiered silhouette - guarantees effortless AM-PM versatility, whether you’re styling it with heeled sandals or ankle boots.
