A wrap dress in a bold color or playful print is a flattering choice for any woman with a full figure.
Plus Size Wrap Dress
Many readers ask if a plus size woman can wear a wrap dress. The answer is yes! Of course your size should never exclude you from wearing something you like. A wrap dress is a great choice for any plus sized woman. After all, the wrap style is not only comfortable — it’s also an extremely flattering and slimming fit on everyone. The built-in tie closure at the waist emphasizes the smallest part of your figure, while the v-neck and fit-and-flare silhouette shows off your curves. Another major benefit of the wrap dress is its adjustable fit, which you can achieve when you’re in the process of tying it. (Need help putting on your wrap dress?

Where can you wear your wrap dress? Honestly, you can wear it anywhere. The wrap dress is famous not only for its slimming effect, but also its versatility. For example, did you know that the original Diane von Furstenberg wrap dresses from the 1970s were designed for women in the workplace? A wrap dress is a professional yet feminine alternative to a more masculine pantsuit. Wrap dresses are also perfect for a romantic date night at an elegant restaurant, or even a weekend brunch with friends.
For all these reasons, we feel the wrap dress is an especially good choice to pack with you on your upcoming travels. After all, how many pieces in your closet are truly perfect for all occasions and settings? Don’t leave for your summer vacation without one of these bold, carefree plus size wrap dresses in bright colors and playful prints.
