Cute Option at Almost 40 weeks
Wore pre-pregnancy size at almost 40 weeks. Comfortable and plenty of room for my massive bump - pattern and colors were a nice change and length was work appropriate.

Great work dress for 9 mo.
Sized up from my normal pre-pregnancy size since I wore this at 38 weeks, but I really did not need to - plenty of space for my bump. Length was also perfect. Very soft and comfortable fabric - and forgiving!

Cute third trimester option
Super cute and very comfortable for 38 weeks - I dressed it up for work and then dressed it down to run errands. I would have preferred a little longer length, but it wasn't terrible. Wore my pre-pregnancy size.

Great work dress
Sized up from my normal pre-pregnancy size since I'm 37.5 weeks, though I probably didn't have to as this dress has plenty of stretch. I rented the black version of this dress for my baby shower and loved it, so I decided to rent the navy version as well! Very comfortable and flattering on my massive baby bump. Length was work appropriate. Definitely a form-fitting dress, but I liked that since I've been opting for more flow-y styles at this stage in my pregnancy.

Comfortable dress at 9 months
Dress fit well at 9 months pregnant - wore my pre-pregnancy size. Was a little short, but still work appropriate with flats. Note that the fabric is quick drying, which is a plus when your stomach constantly hits the sink every time you use the restroom...

Loved!
I wore this 8 months pregnant and sized up from my pre-pregnancy size, although I might not have needed to. Definitely runs big. Super comfortable and work-appropriate length. The back detail gives the dress a cute shape, despite being a baggier style dress and not so overwhelming with fabric. I did wear a cami underneath when I wore it to work, but did not when I wore it to dinner on the weekend.

One of my favorites!
I honestly loved this dress - by far one of my favorite maternity rentals. I wore my pre-pregnancy size at 8 months pregnant and it was only a little snug in the chest area (I'm around a 36C at this point). Probably would have looked better with heels, but my swollen ankles were not having that. Length was work appropriate with flats.

Short!
I really wanted to love this dress, but the shorter side of the dress was simply far too short to be work appropriate. I wore it on a day when I knew I wouldn't be around clients and would be mostly in my office (also, I didn't realize how short it was until I got to work). The material is also clingy, so be careful with undergarments! Otherwise, I wore my pre-pregnancy size and had plenty of room for my 8 mo. bump and would have been a flattering dress even at this stage of my pregnancy had it not been so short!

Great materinty option
Sized up from my normal pre-pregnancy size. Plenty of stretch and accommodated my 7 mo. bump easily. Like some reviewers commented, the dress did ride up a little in the front while walking, but not too much to be offensive. Length was great.

Not my favorite rental but definitely wearable
Wore my pre-pregnancy size at 7 months pregnant. Dress was comfortable with plenty of stretch and room for the bump. My only concern was that it was borderline too short to be work-appropriate - I definitely had to wear flats. Didn't use the belt as I have no idea how I would wear it with this dress - above my bump?

Not a favorite...
First, this dress runs HUGE. I'm 7 mo. pregnant and I could have sized down from my pre-pregnancy size. Second, the dress is completely see-through - I was able to make it work with nude undergarments but be warned! Third, wrinkled extremely easily. Finally, the dress showed water spots - any time I washed my hands (or my bump hit the sink) and water splashed on the dress, it would leave spots after it was dried. Luckily there was enough excess fabric that it wasn't too noticeable, but still. Dress was a little too short in the back to be work appropriate with heels, so I wore flat sandals. One pro is that it was extremely comfortable!

Unique Dress
Wore 7 months pregnant - sized up from my normal pre-pregnancy size, but probably did not have to, as there was plenty of room to accomodate my bump without distorting the dress. Definately unique and fun, and comfortable! Length was work-appropriate even wearing heels.

Wore 7 mos. pregnant in my normal pre-pregnancy size with plenty of room to spare, so this dress definitely runs big! The waist has drawstrings that you are able to adjust. Very comfortable summer dress for work.

Comfortable summer maternity dress for work
Cool and comfortable dress for work while 7 mo. pregnant. I wore my pre-pregnancy size. Definitely had plenty of room for the bump, but the chest area was a little snug around the bra-line. Length was good wearing flat sandals - I don't think it would have been long enough for me to wear heels - and the dress could easily be dressed up for a nicer occasion.

Great Wedding Guest Option for Maternity
Sized up one size from my pre-pregnancy size. Wore for a wedding at 7 mo. pregnant - dress had plenty of stretch to accomodate my bump with no weird pulling anywhere. Slit in the back was a little short due to my height, but wasn't innappropriate.

Great Dress for Rehearsal Dinner
Sized up one size from my normal pre-pregnancy size. Fit everywhere, but because it is not a "maternity" dress, it did kindof bunch weird in the back because of my bump. I personally probably wouldn't wear it beyond the 7 mo. mark because of that. Otherwise, very comfortable and length was great.

Cute work dress at 7 mo. pregnant
Sized up from my normal pre-pregnancy size. Very comfortable at 7 mo. pregnant, although it might have looked slightly tent-like because of my bump, I didn't mind. Length was work appropriate, but I wore flats rather than heels just to be sure. The chest area was slightly snug.

Comfortable work dress
Definitely a "different" style of dress. Foremost, I'm nearly 7 mo. pregnant and I sized up in this dress from my normal pre-pregnancy size - I absolutely did NOT need to, as it runs huge everywhere! Very comfortable and flowy. I wore it with strapped high heels to dress it up a bit for work. Some additional notes: the black part of the dress is almost like a sweatshirt material and the white is almost silvery. It does also wrinkle fairly easily. Shortest part of the dress hit me just about the knees, similar to the model in the photo.

Cute Dress - Runs slightly small
Cute dress - however, for being maternity I felt there was not enough room in the chest area! I wore my pre-pregnancy size, but had to squeeze in the top - otherwise, fit great everywhere else. Plenty of room for the bump though at 6 mo. I had to wear flats as I felt it was almost too short to be work appropriate.

Different Work Dress
Sized up since I am 6 mo. pregnant. Fun dress to wear to work as something different than the norm. Very stretchy and forgiving material, like many dresses are from this designer. Note that the top is totally transparant - had to wear a cami underneath!

Great Dress for Summer
Very comfortable dress - the top is a deep V-neck, so I had to use tape so I wouldn't show my undergarments. Plenty of room for my bump (6 mo. pregnant), but probably would have flowed better if I wasn't pregnant! Length was appropriate as well, even with heels. I dressed it up for work and graduation party by wearing gold heels and received many compliments.

Runs large up top!
Wore this 6mo. pregnant, so I sized up from my normal size. I agree with other reviewers that the top of the dress is wide open - I did not even come close to filling it out and it is a very deep "v" - pinning it didn't even help, so I had to wear a tank underneath to make the dress work appropriate. Otherwise, the length and dress itself was fun and different. I wore with silver strappy sandals.

Cute work dress for maternity
I'm kindof shocked that this dress is not maternity - I wore my pre-pregnancy size despite being 6 mos. pregnant after reading other reviews and found there to be more than enough fabric in the stomach area. I couldn't imagine the fit of the dress if I was not pregnant!

Maternity Work Dress
I sized up from my normal size being 6mos. pregnant and found the fit appropriate. Length was great for me, but I can see the length being overwhelming for someone who is on the shorter side. Fabric was stretchy and heavy - I would not want to wear this in the dead of summer!

One of my favorites
I sized up from my normal size 4 since I'm in my second trimester and the fit was great - I MIGHT have been able to get away with my normal size since it is stretchy. The length was work appropriate and I was able to wear heels without the shorter side of the hem being an issue.

Unfortunately despite sizing up this dress still didn't even fit over my mini-baby bump so I didn't get to wear. However looked super cute despite not zippering in the back!

Cute Second Trimester Dress
Very cute dress, worn in second trimester. I definitely had room in the stomach area, and the dress is stretchy material, so I would say this would likely still fit in the third. The zipper was oddly hard to zip because of the type of fabric!

Great dress to wear to work on a chilly Midwestern spring day. Also accommodated my growing 5 month baby bump! Also, length was not too short. Like other reviews, I had to wear a tank underneath to make it work appropriate. I paired the dress with tights, black flats, and a chunky black necklace.

Wore for Work
Pros: Very comfortable dress for my growing 5 month baby bump. I also liked this dress more than more traditional sweater dresses - it was a good weight for a chilly Midwestern spring day. Cons: I almost feel like it looked...matronly? Probably because of the aforementioned baby bump. I also think it would probably suit fall/winter due to the sparkly material. I paired it with pumps and a chunky silver necklace for work.
