    I'm 5'0, but I'm not your average petite figure. I'm thin but I'm very hourglass, and I really want to get a maxi dress but I can't find one thats the right length and doesn't make me look like a tent!:p I saw a girl my height wearing one and it looked really cute on her, but looking around I haven't seen any maxi dresses in petite sizes. Has anyone seen any?

    TBH I don't think they generally look nice on girls smaller than 5'4ish.

    Being 5'3" myself I know they proabably aren't the most flattering thing I could wear but they're so damn handy in the summer especially on holidays. If you get one with a waist rather than straight down it should give a sense of proportion.

    Also you might just need to get it altered to fit you in height.

    I got one a few weeks ago in New Look... I'm 5"1 and its more or less okay. Maybe a little long but I can get away with it for what I need it for.
