Which do you prefer & why?

Personally I go for the faux look over an actual wrap. It just seems to show off my waistline better.

I like a true wrap because it can be adjusted. I have one BCBG Max Azria wrap dress that I found at Ross that I have been able to wear through quite a bit of weight loss because I can keep making it smaller.

Usually faux work better on me. True wraps often don't quite contain my 34D chest!

I also like the adjustability of a true wrap. Though I have learned to be very careful. Some wraps don't have enough fabric to stay "wrapped" well in times of flight.

The real deal. Faux don't wrap up high enough for my waist or bust usually.

I've never owned a real "wrap" dress, so I guess my vote is for faux. I don't have much boobage and everyone has told me I can't do a real wrap dress unless I get implants or something. :p

@ Lyn - Try some on. I tend not to buy real wrap dresses because my chesticles are too big. I do try them on but it never seems to pan out.

I haven't been able to find a real wrap dress/shirt that works for me. I am constantly adjusting it and worrying that it is going to slip and expose too much skin.

Lol Lyn, I don't have much boobage either.

I'm going to choose faux wrap. I have a real wrap dress and while I love it I always have a slight modesty awareness issue in the back of my head while wearing it. I'm just enough of a walking disaster sometimes that I can totally see myself having a wardrobe malfunction. >_>

I usually go for faux because of the chest issue as well
