Ever since DVF made the wrap dress a closet staple, it’s been a seasonless way to experiment with color and patterns, all within a figure friendly fashion statement. Wrap dresses come in all shapes, sizes, colors, patterns; and if you don’t have a go-to wrap dress in your closet we should address that issue! They are the ultimate solution to “what to wear today”, make any body type look amazing, and due to the adjustable nature of the style can be made as revealing or conservative as you feel comfortable with!
My new favorite wrap dress? This number from Anthropologie (side note, I must give a shout out to the staff at the Anthropologie at the Grove in LA, who made sure I got what I wanted, even when it required searching the stock room 3 times). I love that this is the perfect transition piece: the maxi length, the fall-like colors, the sleeves. I love the pattern mixing: florals and a black and white, and there’s a little lace detail. I love that this wrap dress can be a little low cut, or comes with a snap to make it more conservative. Like all wrap dresses, I love that this dress accentuates the waist, while being adjustatable, and flows like a dream. This wrap dress is perfect for summer (the beach!) but will also be great for the fall–I love the idea of wearing it over jeans as it gets colder.
I choose to wear this wrap dress with heels to make more of a statement (yes, heels at the beach are amazing), but it would look equally as great with sandals, boots, and all kinds of heels. I truly believe that wrap dresses are a worth while investment. They’re able to be both a classic and a statement piece at the same time, and with all the colors and patterns available there’s one for every style.
I’d love to know: how do you Rock a maxi dress?
