microdress

Very short dress

A microdress is an extremely short dress, typically ending well above mid-thigh.

The term emphasizes minimal length beyond what minidress already suggests: She wore a sparkly microdress to the club.

Like other micro- fashion terms (microskirt, microbikini), it implies revealing or daring style.
