    Try Zara and Marks & Sparks, I've seen loads of wrap dresses there in the past, also Gap. Or perhaps Massimo Dutti in Dundrum, Wallis or Monsoon.

    If you want to splash out, Diane von Furstenburg is the Holy Grail Designer of Wrap dresses, stocked in Brown Thomas, they are pricey but an investment piece, they last for years and never go out of fashion.

    A DVF wrap dress. I have one myself and they're lovely.

    Anyone know of wrap dresses that aren't made from Jersey? I find that material to be too clingy and I can't find a slip anywhere!

    I dont find the silk jersey clingy at all. Its a really soft glidey material. You should try one on.

    You can get good slips in M&S too btw ;) They're not cheap but they're worth it. Separate top and bottom is most versatile.

    Was just looking at Littlewoods site and there are some wrap dresses in the Trinny and Susannah range on special offer - they look nice and I found that clothes from that range are good quality. Also if you check the bargain alert section here, you might find codes to get further discounts on them!
