microdresses

Very short dresses

Microdresses are extremely short dresses, typically ending well above mid-thigh.

The micro- prefix emphasizes how little fabric is involved—shorter than a minidress.

The term appears in fashion contexts describing clubwear, runway pieces, or any dress that barely covers the hips: She wore a sequined microdress to the party.
