Default Wrap dress fabric

Hi
I have my heart set on making a Diane Von Furstenberg-esque wrap around
dress for a wedding I am attending next month. I have been frantically
trying to find a rayon/viscose and lycra patterned fabric that might be
suitable
(ideally a pinky/floral pattern), but have so far failed miserably - it
either seems impossible to get a stretchy fabric in a print or the prints
are very old fashioned. Can
anyone point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks
Debbie, UK

Have you tried Bombay Stores in Bradford? Or what about Croft Mill at
Colne?

There are a couple of people on Leeds market might come up with the
goods, too.
