midis
Not-quite-long dresses
Midis is the plural of midi, referring to garments—typically skirts or dresses—that fall to mid-calf length, between mini and maxi styles.
The term gained currency in fashion during the 1960s and 70s as hemline options multiplied.
She prefers midis because they're more versatile for work.
In computing contexts, MIDIs (Musical Instrument Digital Interface files) are audio files that store musical notation data rather than recorded sound.
