Morphology
midi = mid (semi-transparent) = mid + i
The central meaning is clearly connected to 'mid', but the final -i is a conventional fashion-forming ending rather than a fully productive English suffix.
Etymology
Midi comes from French midi, which means 'noon' or 'middle', so it describes a 'middle' length for a skirt or dress that reaches around mid-calf.
