Wrap midi dresses you knot at your own waistline

The tie on a wrap midi dress decides the fit, so you set the waist and the depth of the V yourself. We cut every one of these below the knee and sew it in XS to XL. Some are made for frosty holiday evenings, others for a hot day at the office.

Velvet and lurex for the cold months

Our emerald velvet wrap keeps its neckline shallow. That’s why it works at a winter office party and, with a blazer over it, at a business meeting in spring. Gold jewelry warms the green right up.

Want shine? The blue lurex wrap is a knit, and it stretches. You can sit through a long holiday dinner and nothing pinches at the belt. It also hides the tummy a little, since the overlap runs across it.

There’s a brighter electric blue one too. Its stretch lurex hugs the body more closely than the other, so we’d check bust, waist and hips against the chart before you order it. Wear it with black pumps if you’re a wedding guest in December.

Satin and printed wraps when it’s warm

The chocolate wrap is satin, 98% polyester and 2% elastane, with full-length sleeves and a pair of ties. It looks warm on a summer terrace and just as right at a restaurant in October. Its beige sister has the same sleeves, which helps at a ceremony where bare shoulders aren’t welcome.

Short sleeves come with the lighter wraps. One is muslin with a flounce at the hem, sewn in light blue or pink, and it crinkles a bit after a gentle wash until a steamer smooths it out. Small blue flowers on black hide the creases you collect at a desk by five. Isn’t that the point of a summer work dress? Our pink floral wrap feels sweeter, so we’d take it to a daughter’s graduation or a dinner outside.

We list these summer pieces from spring, once it’s warm enough to wear them. Caught halfway between two sizes? A wrap forgives that, because the knot goes wherever you pull it. For shorter hems, look at our wraps above the knee, or open every tie-waist style we make. Need a midi without a tie? Try the rest of our midi cuts.

Frequently asked questions

Which measurement matters most for a wrap?

The bust. The ties handle your waist, wherever it sits.

Can I wear a wrap midi dress to work?

Yes. The black one with blue flowers and the black polka dot wrap both go from a morning meeting to drinks with friends, and the emerald velvet works under a blazer.
