My work is having an outdoor event at the end of the month to celebrate the opening of our new garden space. I'd like a maxi dress but I'm 5'1". I can never find a maxi to fit me or that can be easily hemmed. Any ideas where I could look for truly petite maxi dress under $50? I'd like to look like a short bohemian goddess

I’m 5’1 and have this too and the length is great. You can hike the waist up a little higher if need be

Oh I love the floral print of this but it doesn't look like it comes in my (plus) size

For plus size specifically- Torrid? I am 5'3" and typically have to wear the short inseam pants from there though. Do you have Belk in your area? They have a plus size "junior" section called Adult Contemporary or something equally ridiculous. But- I've found cute tops & dresses there very inexpensively. Kohl's looks like they may have a few options. A lot that is online only though. OneA little expensive, but this is very pretty I like this one is not as longFour

I'm a 14/16 so I can do "regular" sizing or plus, usually. I like that third one- the shorter length might be a good fit for me. Thanks!

Maurices? I'm 5'3 and plus size and LOVE the dresses I've bought from there. One & Two aren't true maxis, but are super cute. Number 3 is. ONETWOTHREE

This is beautiful! Not sure if it's available in my size though. But it gives me something to look for

I'm 5'2 and I can wear petite from Catherines. I have 4 or 5 maxis from there. Dress Barn owns Catherine's and also has a decent selection of plus size. I like torrid too but it's tends to be more stylish than what I'm comfortable with.
