Everyone knows that wrap dresses are endlessly flattering. The ability to adjust our level of snugness is undeniably the best. We can carve out a waistline or even loosen it up for a flowy look. It’s not limited to wrap dresses either. We’re talking about any top, skirt or dress — you name the style and we’ll most likely want to wrap ourselves in it immediately! But lately, we’ve found ourselves moving away from those more “traditional” wraps and into an untraditional piece!

Did you know faux wrap dresses can be just as flattering? We’re head-over-heels in love with this silhouette that gives us all the best things of a traditional wrap dress without any extra effort. It’s the easy way to wear the same fashion-forward silhouette but in a more functional way, which is why we’re championing the trend and suggesting everyone slip into this dress.

Has anyone ever noticed how wrap dresses are great until they’re not? Sometimes, that once well-fitting dress we left our house wearing in the morning is not the same one by the end of the day. The knotted bow has come undone or it’s become stretched out. That’s why a faux wrap is better since it can’t come undone!

We’re swooning over this refreshing pick that’s feminine, flirty and so fashion-forward. The Maison Jules Printed Faux-Wrap Dress doesn’t make anyone sacrifice style for security!

With four colors available, we can let the patterns do all the work for us. There’s “vine green,” “black dot,” “black flower toss” and “beacon floral yellow,” all of which are great for spring and summer. So is the sleek silhouette. The deep V-neck is paired to perfection with a cinched waist. One reviewer mentioned this was one of their favorite features in the entire dress. They claimed this mock wrap didn’t just slim down and highlight their body but also flattered it in all the right ways! Now, who doesn’t love that?

The semi-sheer short sleeves are an unexpected, yet much-appreciated feature that is fun and fresh. It complemented this dress’ flared skirt that was ultra-flattering on all body types. This looser-fitted skirt ranked amongst many other reviewers’ favorite features. One reviewer called it “adorable” and loved how this feature made this dress even much more work-appropriate!

This dress can be styled a dozen different ways and look brand new each and every time! Think of how fabulous this dress will look when paired with a suede block heel and a denim jacket over our shoulders? It’s the daytime-approved look that can go anywhere from family gatherings to business lunches!

Now, make this look a bit more work-appropriate by swapping out the denim jacket for a trench coat or blazer. We’re already losing our cool over how pretty and polished this play on prints will be! What’s even more amazing? This dress can be edged up just as easily as it can be dressed up!

Take this look from desk to drinks by adding this leather jacket and a matching mule. Is anyone looking to be a bit more daring? Substitute the mule for a strappy stiletto sandal or maybe even an over-the-knee boot. With such a simple and safe silhouette on this dress, the options are endless!
