Maxi dresses?

[Weeze]

How do we feel about Maxi dresses?

I like them on other people... ok, thinner people... but, I sorta feel like I would look like I was wearing a muumuu (Not hatin' on muumuus).

So, I guess what i'm asking...
Post your maxi dress pictures?
Will a purple one make me look like a giant purple people eater?
HELP ladies! I want one, but I don't want to look like i'm wearing a house dress in public OR waist my money.
