It’s a question that keeps getting asked : “What should I wear? A Maxi or a Mini Dress?”. To be honest- it is tough, especially with the range of beautiful styles out there that you can buy or rent. To help we’ve put a few recommendations together to help you decide on what to wear. Obviously renting or joining a GlamCorner Membership is going to give you the best opportunity to be sustainable verse buying something new (that you’ll probably wear once). Anyway, we hope this helps you pick your next fancy Mini or Maxi dress!!

When it comes to choosing between maxi and mini dresses, there are a few factors to consider.

Firstly, think about the occasion.

Ruched Maxi Dress

For a formal event like a wedding, a maxi dress can be a perfect choice. GlamCorner offers a range of stunning maxi dresses available to rent, such as the Bec + Bridge Carrie Maxi Dress, a show-stopping piece that's sure to turn heads. On the other hand, if you're going to a casual brunch or a day out with friends, a mini dress is a great option.

High Tide Button Mini Dress

Check out the Zimmermann High Tide Button Mini Dress. A cute and playful look that's a perfect fun birthday dress. We reckon this will be hard to buy as well, so we’ve secured a few styles that can be part of your regular rotation!

Another factor to consider is your body type.

If you're tall and slim, a maxi dress can be a great way to show off your height and create an elegant, flowing look. The Hemant & Nandita Sage Ruched Maxi Dress is a perfect example of a maxi dress that flatters a taller frame. If you're on the shorter side, a mini dress can help to elongate your legs and create a playful, youthful look. The LEO LIN Carousel Mini Dress is a gorgeous option that will make you feel confident and stylish. Its pattern is completely unique and you’ll feel wonderful in it.


Why Buy when you can rent!

I love that GlamCorner offers a range of dress hire options. Either the membership or the rental service is an eco-friendly option. Plus you don’t have to worry about any cleaning. By renting a dress rather than buying one, you're doing your part to reduce the fashion industry's carbon footprint. I like to think of it as access to an endless wardrobe. When I’m browsing the website I imagine myself walking though my own endless personal wardrobe. The quality is second to none and I reckon the dresses are better than new. Plus, you get to enjoy a stunning outfit without breaking the bank or contributing to the waste created by fast fashion. It's a win-win situation!

Choosing between maxi and mini dresses depends on a variety of factors, including your body type and the occasion. With GlamCorner's dress hire service, you can rent stunning maxi and mini dresses to suit any event while also supporting sustainable fashion.
