SHORT SLEEVE Maxi Dresses

Wedding Guest & Occasion Maxi Dresses

A maxi dress for a wedding guest is one of the most searched occasion styles in the collection — long maxi dresses in chiffon, lace, and satin are the most requested fabric choices for garden ceremonies, outdoor receptions, and summer weddings. A maxi occasion dress in champagne, navy, or a rich jewel tone reads as genuinely occasion-appropriate and photographs well across every venue and light condition. Browse our wedding guest dresses for occasion-specific styles and our occasion dresses for the full formal range.

Casual, Summer & Everyday Maxi Dresses

A casual maxi dress for everyday wear is a different brief entirely — lightweight fabrics, relaxed silhouettes, and print-led designs that work from a summer holiday through to a daytime event. Summer maxi dresses in floral prints, tie-dye, and block colours are the most versatile in the collection, moving between beach-to-bar occasions and everyday outings with ease. Browse our floral dresses for print maxi styles that cross over into this collection.

Find Your Maxi Dress Style

• Sequin maxi dress:  The most statement-making style in the collection — a sequin maxi dress in gold, champagne, or classic black is the strongest choice for galas, black-tie events, and formal evenings where a floor-length entrance is the brief.
• Long sleeve maxi dress:  Elegant coverage for cooler-weather occasions — a long sleeve maxi dress in satin or lace works for formal events, church ceremonies, and autumn or winter weddings where a sleeveless style would feel underdressed.
• Satin & lace maxi dress:  Two of the most requested fabrics in the maxi collection — satin brings a polished, formal finish; lace brings texture and femininity, making both well-suited to occasions and weddings throughout the year.
• Floral & print maxi dress:  The most versatile daytime style — a floral maxi dress works across garden parties, summer occasions, and holiday packing, carrying from a casual daytime into a relaxed evening event.
• Plus size maxi dresses:  The Goddiva maxi collection includes elegant plus size maxi dresses across every silhouette — sequin, satin, long sleeve, and casual styles in sizes 16–26, designed with the same finish as the full range.
