What is a "wraparound"?

A wraparound is a type of garment, typically a skirt or dress, that is designed to wrap around the body and secure with a tie or closure at the waist. This style of clothing is versatile and flattering on many body types, as it can be adjusted to fit snugly or loosely depending on the preference of the wearer. Wraparound dresses and skirts often feature a flowing, A-line silhouette, and are made from lightweight, breathable fabrics such as cotton or silk. They are popular for both casual and formal occasions and can be dressed up or down depending on the styling.
