For me the perfect wrap fits well without feeling like I am going to flash any part of my body while walking or moving in a normal way. Some wraps just fit better in the bust. When I was a size 2 in sheath dresses I wore a 4 in wrap dresses. I almost always had to wear a camisole or bralette so I wasn't flashing. Now that I am 15 lbs heavier I think that they actually fit my body better. I can size up now without too much material in the hips.

I've always been a fan of the dvf wrap dress and have recently tried a few of her skirt styles. They are amazing and fit great! LOVE the Gemma Skirt. I'll post a few pics of some of my newer wrap dresses that I also adore. The new flared wrap dresses are wonderful!
I got the Maura today and was pleasantly suprised that it is not too short 
It does hit above my knees but there's a good inch or so of fabric to have let down, so it should hit right at the knee if I get it taken down.
I'm on the fence about the dress itself, though - it's okay but I'm not convinced I look that great in it, I think because there's detailing at the waist and that kind of draws the eye right to the waist, not something I want to accentuate.
It's returnable so I'm going to think about it.

I know this is an old posting- but may I say you look so FAB in how you style your DVF!
Hey Magjes, good to see you here. I can't wait to see some pics. It would be nice for this thread to be revived a bit.
Thank you.
Aww, thank you so much. That is really kind of you to say.
Thanks megt10 for the tip, I actually found the information on DVF's site (where the dress was already on sale). It runs large. Now I only have to wait for sales to start in Europe.
Yesterday I wore for the first time the Amelianna Gingham Black. Had a couple of photo bombers.
I love it!!!
You look amazing. I love the print of this dress. It is one of my all time favorites.
