Love this dress, wore 22weeks pregnant
For someone whose 22 weeks pregnant and outgrown the majority of their existing wardrobe, this dress was AMAZING. Stretchy, comfortable, and flattering. It can be a bit revealing up top though if you are busty. I'll probably rent again and wear with a black tank underneath. Rent this dress!

Love this dress, wore 22w pregnant
This dress totally hid my baby bump! I wore it at 22weeks and felt so comfortable. It's loose and flowy but still very flattering. Would rent again.

Great maternity option!
Loved this dress for work. I wore it at about 23 weeks. Definitely needed a tank underneath though. Very low cut and revealing without it. Would rent again!

Great maternity option!
I wore this dress for work at 24weeks and was relieved with how comfortable and loose fitting it was. It's flowy without feeling baggy or frumpy. DEFINITELY needed to wear a tank underneath though. Top is very low and revealing without it.
Stripe Print Dress

Beware: NOT stretchy
Okay, granted I'm 26 weeks pregnant-- this dress is super hard to squeeze into. I'm glad I read other reviews first and ordered a M instead of a S. It looks like a stretchy sweater dress but it's not stretchy at all! My husband had to help me put it on and take it off. Fit great once it was on though!

It fit, but not the most flattering
I wore this dress simply because I didn't have any better options at the time. It was comfortable, but wasn't the most flattering at 25 weeks. Baggy excess fabric between chest/belly and under belly. I wore it with a long red cardigan to hide some of the looseness. Probably wouldn't wear it again, but if you like a looser fit, go for it. I also got a size M because a lot of others have been too small.

Chest/waist too small
At 25 weeks, I couldn't even get this dress zipped all the way. I was already a 34D pre-pregnancy. I weigh about 135 now. I think this dress would work better for smaller-chested women -- otherwise size up.

Comfy loose fit
Wore this dress to work and it disguised a 20w baby bump pretty well, but the whole dress was pretty loose fitting. Not a super flattering shape but I think that's the style they're going for. It was really comfortable but the top is a bit hard to keep in place (34DD) so I recommend pinning or wearing a cami underneath! I wore it with tan booties and think it looked pretty cute. (And POCKETS!) I'll probably rent again in the same size in my third trimester.
Stripe Draped Front Dress

Thin fabric, runs large
I wore the dress to work and it was okay, but I didn't love it. I'm just getting into maternity clothing (20w) and I felt this dress was really big! It definitely had room for a much bigger bump so I might rent it again in the third trimester. The fabric is also super thin, so not the best option for winter warmth!

Beautiful dress, wore 20w pregnant
Awesome dress for work. It is a little low cut but is stitched in place so you don't have to worry about showing TOO much. I was able to squeeze into a size small 20w pregnant, but don't think it would fit again past this stage without sizing up! The stomach area had some nice ruching to make room for a baby bump. My only con was it seems the lining made the back of the dress ride up a little bit, so I kept tugging on the lining throughout the day.

Too big for second trimester
I think this skirt would've been great for work if I would've waited until the third trimester. I'm 19 weeks and have outgrown my normal work skirts but this one looked huge and baggy so I sent it back. Might try it again in a few months!

Way too big for second trimester
I think this dress would've been great for work if I would have waited until the third trimester. I'm 19 weeks and cant fit into my normal clothing anymore but I was swimming in this dress and had to send it back. I might try again toward the end of my pregnancy!
