I love a good maxi dress, but you’ve heard me complain before about how difficult it can be to find one with the right relaxed fit that doesn’t hug all the wrong curves. Because maxi dresses are typically thinner material and form-fitting, it can also be challenging to disguise your underwear lines or undershirts. The thing I love about this maxi from DownEast’s new spring collection is that it’s still lightweight and flowy, but the gathered waist allows for a more feminine silhouette that compliments your shape. The built-in tee also provides a look that doesn’t require any extra layering like a tank-top-style maxi might do.

Don’t forget to enter the Spring Giveaway with DownEast (they’re giving away a $100 gift card!). It ends tonight at 11 p.m. MDT. Winner will be announced in tomorrow’s post!

Special thanks to DownEast for sponsoring this post.
