Yay! Black Swan would be so purty in the Gratitude wrap!
I don't know about the fit of the new GW, but the older ones fit on the looser side. If you are larger busted or want more coverage in the rear you would go with your normal size, if you are the skinnier side you might wat to size down. The older version did not go to a 2 but I don't know about this one.
I'm concerned about the sizing in these. I normally take an 8 in everything, but I have a really small waist and hips that are much larger than said waist. I'm afraid the 8 is going to be too baggy on my mid section, and in contrast, I'm afraid the 6 will fit fine in my waist area, but be too tight in the hips. Not sure what to do, we don't have a lulu here, so I'm restricted to buying online!
@ anon 12:05 pm - I am with you. I thought I looked like a sack with legs when I tried them on a couple of years ago. I think a lot of people find them super comfortable but I'm not sure I'll be buying one this time around. Used ones were going for nearly $400 on ebay so they have a rabid fan base.
I will pass on this. I prefer the shape of the Method Wrap as it is more fitted at the waist. The drawstring bottom on this does not appeal to me. I am short so I am afraid I will like a pumpkin with legs. It does look super warm and comfortable though.
I actually have the same problem.. small waist and big hips... as you can see from the pics - i tried on the black in a size 6 which is my normal size - and it fit well in the hips but from the back it just went straight down and looked quite shapeless. I tried the black swan in a 4 - and thats the size i ended up buying as it fits well on the waist and even looked fine on the hips :)
Anon 12:34pm cracks me up - a pumpkin with legs! That is totally how I would look. If only they came out in orange and I could get a green wonder under...
OMG!!!! I'm dying for this wrap in Black Swan!! I was praying it would come out in this color. This is my all time favorite lulu product. I have 4 of them and will just keep adding to my collection. Arms are not tight in the older version. Vi hrs crossed it's not sold out in my store.
I bought the Black Swan one yesterday. When I went into the store they were unpacking new stock they just received, so it was good timing. I find they do fit smaller. I am a 6 in pants and a 8 or 10 in sweaters (I have a large bust, haha) and I ended up buying a 6 in the GW. Love it and its hard to take it off it is so comfortable !
Does anyone know if and when they will be releasing any other colors? I am really after a size 2 or 4 in raspberry....I am hoping and praying that they will re-release that color!! I love the Gratitude wraps!!!! If anyone hears anything please let me know! (plazas3@yahoo.ca)
I am with Anon 12:05, can someone explain to me what the big frenzy is over the Gratitude Wrap? It just seems like a wrap with buttons and a drawstring to me.. I have never tried one on, so can someone please explain...

Are these a size down kinda item? Do they come in a 2 or is 4 the smallest?

Can someone please explain the popularity of these?! Is there something I'm missing? Are they super cozy or something?

Hope that helps for sizing! :)

These photos are from British Columbia stores. No word as to when it will hit the US.

It's cute, but pricey.
