    Oh wow, that is beautiful!
    Can I ask what length it came to on you? They don't give the model's height.

    Aoifums: It was just slightly above my knee. I loved it but as I said there was something funny about the neckline on me......unless I need to go back and retry it with a different bra :D

    Nice :) If I were you I would go back with a different bra. It's such a lovely dress.

    Had a t-shirt bra on for work.....and the thought did cross my mind that perhaps one of my other bras would have given a better shape. It is indeed very pretty!

    Anyhow any other directions toward nice wrap dresses out there would be aporeciated ;)

    LK Bennett always have some in stock. Some here on their website. They're a little "older" though than the one in your link though.

    Wallis aren't bad for wrap dresses. I think they run a bit big size wise though, so you might want to try going down a size.

    Hi! I too love wrap dresses, they are such great staple piece for any girls wardrobe!

    Hobbs have lovely wrap dresses,- although they are a bit pricey but the quality is fantastic and they really last years and never go out of fashion! I bought two myself and have worn them from winter - with boots and cardies through to summer with sandals!

    happy hunting :)

    I`m sure you`ve tried this but just in case - I tried on a beautiful wrap dress in pennys last week. it came in blue and black i think. neckline was gorgeous really flattering.

    It's a lovely dress - I can see exactly what you mean about the neckline though. I'm around the same height as you and find that kind of neckline is just too much material for a smaller frame. Was there a petite version of it?

    I don't think there was a petite version :( The neckline is usually make or break for me too and thats why I was so disappointed with it!

    thanks all for the other wrap dress suggestions. I will have a look and see can i find something similar.

    I saw on New Looks website that they have some wrap dresses at the moment, not sure what they are like in the flesh though, i find their dresses a bit hit and miss at times(love their shoes though!)
