Full-Maxi-Dirndl
Full Maxi Dirndl or the long Dirndl dress is one of the best choices for your Oktoberfest look. Traditionally, a Dirndl is an outfit designed to be suitable for everyday work life. This is one of the reasons that the skirt and the apron of the Dirndl do not reach down to the ankles.
Why is that?
The design is made so that the hem of the skirt does not get dirty as women would pass through shallow waters or trudges over the fields or pastures. Unlike the Mini Dirndl or Midi Dirndl, a Maxi Dirndl is widely accepted as a traditional Bavarian long Dirndl dress mostly regarded as the proper style.
