When you think about the body of historical proof—Diane von Furstenberg's eternally popular and incredibly flattering wrap dresses are now over 40 years old—it's strange we didn't think of the slimming top earlier. Imagine all of the waist-nipping, sleeve-covering benefits of the aforementioned frocks, only with the versatility of being a separate wardrobe pillar to be styled with whatever else you like the most: The wrap top is unequivocally the figure-friendliest silhouette going, for all shapes and sizes.

Ballerina-style cardigans are suddenly popping up in stores, whilst shirts continue their journey into new territory, with many designed now as wrap-around styles with big shirttail bows for extra-interesting detailing.
