What’s in a hemline?
Picture the scene. Your wearing a new Bali Dress, the soft golden sand, the motion of the (ahem) ocean, the sound of the bikes humming through the small, cobbled streets, the smell of incense with a side of saté and the endless beach bars, chilled beats and ‘hot’ dance floors.
You’re with us, right? Yes ... Bali, you rock!
As you soak up the island vibes and holiday spirit, you’ll need a cute dress (or two!) to wow at the sunset beach BBQ, shopping with your besties and bar hopping your way straight to the club. Well, don’t fret, we’ve got you babe.
Our Bali clothing collection has most bases covered, whatever the occasion and whatever your style. From long maxi’s, to sexy midi’s to fun and flirty mini’s. Take a look at our top picks of Bali dresses for women … and get your Bali vibe on!
Go Long
Let’s kick this off with our best-selling long dress bali - the Gabriella Maxi Dress. Available in black or mocha, this is the ultimate in sleek and stylish. With a flattering, voluminous cut and shoestring straps, this fab piece works for any occasion. Pair with beach accessories and your favourite thongs or go for statement hoops, bangles and a strappy wedge and you have yourself an uber chic, nighttime glam; Boom!
And we have to mention our new-in, Garner Maxi Dress. Fresh white, textured fabric, (similar cool feel to a linen dress Bali ) makes this the perfect dress for an afternoon of shopping with your besties … with the odd cocktail thrown in, of course! With collars, a button down front detail and cascading tiers, this can also be worn as a great, stylish overcoat to a basic strappy tee and denim shorts.
Next up; not in the mood for floor length drama? Then don’t sweat, we have plenty of midi’s for that in-between kind of vibe.
When you can’t decide
A straw poll of the babes in our offices revealed that Midi’s are the go-to choice for Bali fashion vibes. They really do work for every occasion and we’ve got a fab selection of midi’s to choose from. It was tough to choose but here’s our top two!
We can’t get enough of our Estelle Midi Dress and neither can our tribe of babes who are ordering this in their droves. Choose from black or mocha, the dress is made from a sumptuous stretch, ribbed fabric, hugging those babe-like curves of yours. The sexy side split and cut-out twisted mid section makes for a smoking hot look for the beach or the bar!
Our second pick was hotly debated but we settled on the Greta Midi Dress. Why? Because we just love the fitted bodice contrasted with the tiered loose, flowing skirt. And the front buckle detail just finishes this bali dress off, perfectly. Paired with thongs or a platform sandal, you’re ready for sunset vibes and cocktails.
Summer to the max
Ok, so with endless choices here, we thought we’d go from day to night with a little something in between, because well, there’s just too many to choose from when it comes to our collection of mini bali dresses.
DaytimePlaytime.
First up, our Alara Mini Dress in baby blue or pollyanna sage. Love, love and love this off the shoulder, floral print - oh so innocent! #notsomuch - mini.It screams summer Bali beach vibes and totally rocks a cool pair of chunky trainers and statement sunnies.
Next is the super sexy Honolulu Mini Dress - a WOW kind of dress! With a V-neck, under bust cut and playful tiers, this black and white gingham babydoll dress has got us pretty excited here at Bamboo Blonde HQ. New-in, we reckon this is going to be the next best-seller.
Taking it up a notch
The ‘because how could we not’ picks … Our Riley Mini Dress just has to get a mention because it’s new-in and it’s already causing a bit of a stir! Crisp white with a low cut back and tied detail give this sexy summer bali dress an exciting little twist.
Our next piece is all about the colour! Our fuchsia pink Angelina Mini Dress. Round necked, tiered with ruffle detail, this dress will turn heads. Effortlessly chic in its style with a touch of ‘ooooh’ from the cut-out ruched elastic detail on the back.
Final mention goes to the Toronto Rib Dress. It’s the ultimate in versatile basics. Also fuchsia pink - a fave colour of ours this season - it rocks anything and everything from daytime hoops and a pair of thongs to a jacket and heels for the club. A wardrobe must-have!
And finally, on to our night time minidress picks.
Rock the dancefloor
As the sun sets on another day, the party starts to heat up and requires a Bali dress game change. The dance floor calls and our Romana Rib Dress is one o four new arrivals. Bodycon, of course, with a sexy criss-cross front bust detail and open back. Choose from black or a cool mint green, this really is a bali dress perfect for those tropical night vibes.
No dress rocks a party more than our Selena Knit Dress. Hand-knitted with a V-neck and low cut back, this bodycon dress totally nails how to party, Bali style. And the best thing about this dress is it works with a statement heel or you can throw out a little more attitude with a combat boot paired with gold hoops. Smokin’ babe!
