- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021There really isn’t a difference between a wrap and a shawl — the term “wrap” is loosely defined and it’s frequently used to describe shawls and stoles.

On 1stDibs, shop a collection of cocktail dresses from some of the world's top boutiques.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024The difference between a bodycon dress and a bandage dress is construction. A bodycon dress is any stretchy dress cut to hug the curves of the wearer.
