In search of wrap dresses for winter

25 replies

I'm looking for a couple of winter-weight, long-sleeved knee-length/midi dresses that I can wear with tights and boots over the winter - the sort of thing suitable as 'nice' daywear, like a lunch date. Not finding much so far! Budget <£100. Any suggestions appreciated!

<£100 per dress, I mean!

Baukjen used to do the best wrap dresses, not sure if they do anymore. They are quite pricy but you can usually get a discount code, especially if it is your first purchase

Thanks all! I do like that Boden one particularly...

If you like patterns look on popsy clothing or joanie clothing.
also Duns sweden have nice prints. I have a few of their wrap dresses and they’re lovely.

What happened to dresses having bust darts? The large of nork are utterly screwed this year.

Try Popsy Clothing. Some fab wrap midis there.

Hi. I'm looking for advice. Do you think £5 for a Christmas gift for a niece or nephew is acceptable? If you are working full time and they are the only niece and nephew you have? I'm intrigued if it's an acceptable gift for birthdays and Christmas presents. Nothing else given, just that.
Thanks for your opinions.

You should start your own thread to ask this.

Thanks - just spat my coffee out! Large of nork is my new favourite way to describe myself.

Joe Browns has some lovely dresses this season.

Debwatson · 26/10/2023 01:20

White Stuff have some nice ones - around £60

That John Lewis velvet dress linked above looks great

Shame we can't see how it actually looks, as the model is all scrunched up like she's got a bad stomach ache
