Explanation:
"Wrap dress" has come up before. See previous glossary entry:
http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_spanish/textiles_clothi...
vestido envolvente con cinturón atado/vestido envolvente

Observation: the "de brote" part I don't understand (E-bay translation). I suspect these translations are machine translations.

Re "Gemma", I believe Gemma Ward, a fashion model who collaborated (es) with BR had the dress named after her. I am not 100% positive on this (as I cannot find anything really definitive to confirm this). Nevertheless "Gemma" could also be the name of the designer. There are quite a few hits on Google for "Gemma Ward"+Banana Republic.

Of course, the references to "Gemma Ward & BR" depend on which well-known company it is (and I may have assumed too much)!

Vestido envolvente, modelo Gemma


Explanation:
Este tipo de prenda se llama wrap o envolvente porque envuelve el cuerpo. En la página donde aparece el vestido se puede ver que la mayoría de los vestidos tienen diferentes nombres de mujer. Los nombres corresponden a los diferentes modelos.
