Maxi Tube Dress: How to Wear a Long Tube Dress
A maxi tube dress is a long dress with a tube top: no straps or sleeves, just a fitted top and a skirt that falls to your ankles. It's one of the easiest summer outfits there is. Here's how to choose a long tube dress, and how to wear it for the beach, brunch and evenings. Our maxi tube dresses come in S–XL, with some styles in plus size 1X–3X.
What is a maxi tube dress?
It's a tube dress in a long length. Some styles are strapless; others tie at the neck as a halter, which gives more support. Our rose-print maxi tube dresses are 48 inches long with a halter neck.

How to wear a long tube dress
At the beach
Wear it over your swimsuit with flat sandals and a sun hat.
With a scarf
Tie a light scarf around your shoulders, or knot it at the waist as a belt. A scarf also adds a little coverage on the shoulders.
With a layer on top
A denim jacket, a cropped cardigan or a light kimono-style wrap makes a maxi tube dress work for cooler evenings and air-conditioned restaurants.
For brunch or a party
Add wedge sandals, gold jewellery and a small bag. A black maxi tube dress with heels works for evenings.
Tips for a comfortable fit
- Want more support? Choose a halter neck style.
- Check the length: our rose-print maxi tube dresses are 48 inches; compare with a dress you own.
- Prefer sleeves? A plus size maxi dress with sleeves, like a kaftan, may suit you better.
