There are a few key things we always look for when buying a new dress. Do we feel comfortable in it? Do we love the color and/or pattern? Is it figure-loving and flattering? And, perhaps most importantly, how do our legs look in it?

We love pieces that make our legs look like they go on for miles and miles. Anything we put on that makes us feel like supermodels ready to storm the runway is definitely a win in our book. There are plenty of different dress styles that can have this effect, but finding pieces that actually fit all of your requirements can be tricky. That’s why we’ve rounded up 21 elongating dress picks worth checking out!
