At 5'2" I struggle with maxi's length.  In order to get the right length I have to pull this up to my underbust and then fold following it it with a tank that covers the waist because I have folded it so far over.  HOWEVER...I have fond that I can wear this as a strapless dress and it hits mid-calf and looks great with a pair of strappy sandals!  2 looks for the price of one!  The fabric is silky soft and flows nicely.
