Would have been a great dress if fabric was wearable
Dress material was so, so itchy. Although it looked and fit great on, was comfortable with a polished look, and color, ribbing, buttons, and other details were great, unfortunately the itchiness made it completely unwearable. I tried to wear it multiple times, but after between 15 seconds and 5 minutes of having the dress on each time, I wanted to itch my skin off and had to take it off. I wanted so much to like this dress.
Dakota Maternity Dress
ripe
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 2"
Body conscious, but classy
Wore for an event. Felt it was a little too tight/body-conscious for work for me, but could've worked with a sweater or suit jacket over it. It was classy with the neckline, and the fit was good/comfortable.
Katherine Draped Maternity Dress

Comfortable if you just want to have something to wear to work
It was a comfortable fit and fabric, but was a little bit big and not flattering. Made me look much more pregnant than I was. Like others, I had to wear a tank under it or it would’ve shown too much in the chest area, but that was fine. I still wore it because it can be hard to find something comfortable and also work appropriate to wear, but it was an otherwise forgettable shirt.
Peplum Maternity Top

Good for early pregnancy
Rented this dress when 3 months pregnant with my third, so had a little bump but hadn't yet told all our friends and family. This dress hid it without looking sloppy or frumpy. If not pregnant, I'd recommend sizing down.
Red V-Neck Dress

Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4

Flattering and comfortable
Great dress for work. Flattering and figure forming without being too tight. Can wear by itself or with a suit jacket or long cardigan over it. Comfortable but polished. I'd rent again.
Raine Maternity Dress

Pants to live in
These are very comfortable. Have worn as sweats and pants on weekends, dressed up for work, and even as pajamas. Literally pants you can live in. I'm 5'2" so length is great, but would be a shorter/ankle pant for taller folks. Fit true to size, but waistband may be weird for some. I think it is more comfortable to roll the waistband so it sits under my pregnant belly rather than in the middle of it or trying to go over it.
Nevan Maternity Pants

Not perfect, but a great shirt
The shirt overall was big and not flattering, and the sleeves were a little too short, and the material wrinkled easily - all of which sound like deal breakers, I know - but for some reason I really liked this shirt. It was so comfortable, easy to throw on, and went with everything. I dressed it up to wear to work and down for a casual weekend. It was like comfortable pajama clothes. I would rent it again.
Button Down Maternity Shirt
Ingrid & Isabel
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 2"
Weird fit
Where the sweater part ended and shirt began fell at a weird place and made it very unflattering. Attempted to wear it a few times, but each time realized I wasn't overreacting with how awkward it looked/fit. Returned without wearing.
Mixed Media Maternity Pullover
A Pea in the Pod
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 2"
Great everyday sweater
I have worn this multiple times and gotten many compliments. Fits true to size. It's roomy so hides an early bump, but does not look bulky or sloppy. Buttons add a little something extra. I think it will still look great later in pregnancy, too. I wasn't ready to send it back yet, so kept it for another round. It is so versatile; can be worn to run errands or a casual party. I could see buying this as it can also be worn outside of pregnancy.
