There’s no hiding a full-length mirror. By nature, the functional decor item takes up a generous stretch of wall space, which is all the more reason to choose one you actually want to look at—even when you’re not checking your outfit. Lean a floor mirror against a bedroom wall for a more relaxed look, or hang a full-length beauty in the entryway, where it can confirm that yes, you did choose the right shoes before heading out the door.A dressing mirror’s design can bring an unexpected material, color, or shape into your room, all while making the space feel larger than it really is, thanks to the depth-extending magic of reflection. In fact, if there’s one practical purchase that doesn’t have to look particularly practical, this is it.Options extend way beyond a classic black aluminum frame to rich burl wood, woven rattan, colorful lacquer, caramel suede, pared-back metal, and more. Some full-length mirrors are quiet enough to work with whatever decorating decisions you make next, while others are so sculptural, you may find yourself planning the rest of the room around them.Our Top Picks:Best Rattan: Serena & Lily Montara Rattan Floor MirrorBest Textured Frame: West Elm Cantilever Textured Floor MirrorBest Minimalist: CB2 Infinity Modern Full-Length Floor MirrorBest Decorative Metal Frame: West Elm Ora Floor MirrorBest Scandinavian Design: Fritz Hansen Georg Floor MirrorMost Affordable: IKEA HOVET MirrorOur Top PicksMore AD-Approved Full-Length MirrorsBest Rattan: Serena & Lily Montara Rattan Floor MirrorSerena & Lily Montara Rattan Floor MirrorDimensions: 30"W x 3.5”D x 78"HColors: RattanSizes: 1 sizeMake like Hilary Duff and weave in natural texture into your home through unexpected pieces like this rattan mirror from Serena & Lily.
