A Guideline to Mini Dresses
In most cultures before 20th century, women’s dresses needed to be very long. Whether in old portraits or photos from the East or the West, we can see women’s dresses that reach their ankles or even the ground, because more than a hundred years ago, people thought it was shameful for women to expose their legs.
However, all this changed in the last century. First, women got rid of the corset that might even threaten their lives for a long time as more and more women began to participate in sports. The next step was the change in dress length. Obviously, too long dresses also bring a lot of inconvenience to women's sports, making them more likely to fall during exercise. Later, affected by the World War and economic crisis, women had less and less money to spend on clothing fabrics, so their dresses gradually became shorter. However, in the first half of the 20th century, although the length of women's dresses was shortened, they were still not as short as the current mini dresses. The real mini dresses did not appear until the second half of the 20th century.
After the mid-20th century, film, TV show and cabaret played a pivotal role in the popularity of the mini dresses. We can see that the dresses of ballet dancers are very short, but this does not affect their elegance at all. Celebrity promotion also played a role. Mini dresses have become a favorite of countless celebrities in the literary and artistic circles. Coupled with the popularity of swimsuits and the trend of women's liberation, mini dresses have become more and more popular among young ladies at that time.
Fashion trends are constantly changing, but mini dresses have survived several trend changes and are still pursued after by countless ladies. Nowadays, people, especially women, are subject to fewer and fewer restrictions on their clothing. Women are brave enough to show their beauty. This will undoubtedly make mini dresses more popular. In addition, mini dresses nowadays have also evolved into more fabrics and styles, so almost every girl can choose the mini dress she likes.

Tips for Wearing Denim Mini Dresses in Autumn
Many people may think that dresses should not appear in autumn or winter, especially mini dresses. But in fact, denim is a thicker fabric. And we can also apply several skills to style mini dresses in autumn.
A long sleeve denim mini dress + a pair of long boots
For early autumn weather, a long sleeve denim mini dress is enough to keep you warm. If you are worry about your exposed calves, then a pair of long boots can help you cover most part as well as make you look more capable.
A denim mini dress + a jacket + a pair of pants
Entering mid-autumn or late autumn, as the temperature continues to drop, we can also adopt the layering method. On the upper body, you can wear a jacket over the dress, and on the lower body, you can wear a pair of pants under the dress. This way, your outfit will have a layered feel, and you can also make the outfit more nifty by using contrasting colors. For example, you can choose a black jacket and a pair of yellow pants.
A turtle neck sweater + a v-neck denim mini dress + a pair of long boots
This outfit is another form of layering. The difference from the previous outfit is that this outfit completely treats the denim mini dress as a coat. The turtleneck sweater can replace the v-neck to cover your neck. The function of the long boots is the same as that in the first outfit. But please remember that if you want to choose this outfit, it is better to choose a loose denim mini dress. Otherwise, a turtleneck sweater will be difficult to wear under a dress.
A long-sleeve denim mini dress + a knitted vest + a pair of pants
This outfit creates stronger layering sense than the second one because a vest allows the sleeves of the denim mini dress to show through, rather than covering it up like a jacket would. This combination is a good choice for both early autumn and mid-autumn.
