Find your fit online, in-app, or at one of our 350+ Windsor stores and step into your next fall look with main character energy.

Are Short Dresses And Mini Dresses The Same?

Short dresses and mini dresses have similar silhouettes but are not always the same. Short dresses can vary in length and fit depending on your body shape and height. Both can have a hem that falls on the thigh, but above the knee like with a skater dress. Short dresses can also vary in dimension when designed with side or front drawstrings or ruffle ruching. Windsor mini dresses are usually the shorter style and come in sexy designs with front slits, asymmetrical hems, or open backs and stylish necklines. If you need to choose between a short dress or a mini dress, it’s best to consider the type of event and where the dress falls on your leg. These quick tips will help you be in style comfortably and get compliments on your keen fashion sense.

Can Short Dresses Be Formal?

Short dresses are typically seen as less formal, but with certain attributes and features, you can totally wear them to a special occasion. Sequin, beading, and heat stone embellishments elevate a short dress, as well as chic fabrics such as satin, velvet, glitter knit, chiffon, and taffeta. Party dresses and skater dresses should be explored for special occasions or events like graduations, 2025 Homecoming, or any wedding event from the rehearsal to the reception.
