The wrap dress is probably the most flattering dress in existence for almost every body shape. That is why I want to talk about this wrap dress outfit today. I want to speak to you about how a wrap dress can help you look sexier and slimmer. The wrap dress can help conceal flaws and highlight assets for a wide variety of body types.
Longer Neck
Wrap dresses create a flattering v-neck elongating the appearance of your neck. I choose not to wear a necklace with the v-neck wrap because it would take away from the long neck that I am creating with this neckline. I choose to accessorize with bangles instead.
Creates a Waist
The wrap dress also ties at the waist either accentuating or creating a waist if you do not have one.
Work to Happy Hour
This wrap dress goes past the knee and has 3/4 sleeves. It can easily go from the office to happy hour by pulling off a blazer or cardigan that you wear to work. You could even wear it on its own to work if your office has a casual day or if it is just a casual-ish workplace.
Wear with High Heels
High heels help elongate the legs. They are particularly useful when you are wearing a skirt that goes past the knee. If you want to lengthen your legs wear pumps or shoes without an ankle strap. I could not resist these platforms which normally would be a no-no. Since they are so high, they still elongate my legs.
Wrap Dresses Options
Diane Von Furstenberg (DVF) is the queen of wrap dresses. You can get them full price here or gently worn for The Real Real. They have over 6,000 DVF dresses right now some for as little as $55. You can’t beat that since the dresses are regularly $400. If DVF is too low cut for you (it is sometimes for me), you can find higher cut necklines with brand Eliza J and Anne Klein (I’m in love with this one). These brands don’t cut as low because they are faux wrap dresses. Either way, you are getting the figure flattering benefits of a wrap dress.
