Chevron stripe maxi dresses

I've been seeing a bunch of these around in store windows, and they really appeal to me.

Maxi dresses can make you look short or blocky, but the slimming effect of the chevrons elongates the body.

Here are a few good options I've seen:

 $78 Felicity & Coco jersey dress
The thin straps and belt on this are very delicate and feminine
Also comes in blue/white, magenta/mint, orange/red.

 

$34.90 Alloy Kimmy  dress
Has a cute slit to make walking a little easier.
Also comes in blue and white stripe.

$70 Louise Roe Rio convertible dress
You can remove the straps on this one.
Also comes in orange and yellow.

$148 Ribbed maxi dress
This Anthropologie dress might be a little somber for summer, but I like it.

$74.95 GAP chevron stripe maxi dress
A-line skirt flares out and doesn't cling to your butt or give you VPL.
Also comes in green, blue, orange/pink.

$188 Ella Moss striped maxi dress
The different width of stripes on this is nice, and you can wear a bra because it has thick straps.
