The Maxi dress however can be very cute and flattering. Much like jeans and bathing suits, you may need to try on several styles to find the one that is right for you. They are everywhere and at all price points so try to have fun finding the perfect one. And YES - if you are short, you can wear a maxi too.
Below are a few examples of what I think are "universally" flattering for most body types.

You can also wear several of the dresses above with a wide belt to create curves (the good kind). Belts can work wonders at creating a slimming look because it draws attention to the smallest part of your waist. Plus it can give the illusion of longer legs, therefore making you look taller! So all of you short people, rejoice!!
Just belt it!
