Beautiful! but hard to move in
The 4 fit me like a glove, and I’m usually between a 4/6. Got tons of compliments. Didn’t need to wear a bra, but even though I’m a 30DD it felt a little loose up top (could be my short torso). I’m 5 feet tall, and with 3 inch heels it was still dragging a smidge (photo is without shoes on). Also bc the fit was so spot on, it meant it was hard to move around in - going upstairs, sitting down, and dancing were all pretty restrained. But otherwise great!

Fits my postpartum curves!
I wore this to a summer formal wedding. I was 3 months postpartum and this dress did the trick for pumping - fit my larger boobs, could wear a regular nursing / pumping bra, and could zip down just the top half (zipper was a wee bit stiff but still ok). I was a size 4 pre pregnancy, and wore the size 6. For bras/undies/shapewear the lining was a tad see through so make sure to wear undergarments that match your skin tone. I’m only 5 1 so the length was great, didn’t have to worry about drag and I wore heels.

Great for every day
Liked this as a change up from plain tees. Thick material, good quality. Wore this through week 29, but had more room. Even fits big boobs!

Perfect easy fit
This dress was just so easy and great. Wore it at 29 weeks and it definitely had enough room for more. The wrap band also fit below my giant pregnancy boobs which can sometimes a crapshoot. Love.

Booby and I love it
Wore this at 29 weeks for a date night. The color is so fun. It somehow fit my giant pregnancy boobs (32H), albeit with a lot of tightening of the boob ties. It was nice to feel sexy when most pregnancy clothes don’t. My spouse also loved it :)

Great at 29 weeks
This was such an easy outfit I wore this a few times on my babymoon in Palm Springs. At 29 weeks it was for me at the max end of getting over my hips and bump easily with the Medium - so if I rented later in pregnancy probably would size up. For shorties like me the adjustable tie straps were also awesome. I wore without a bra - there’s no support but it was nice to go without.

Stretchy enough for a bump
I wore this at 29 weeks and it stretched to fit over my bump and giant pregnancy boobs. The boob fit was a little odd but good enough. I wore this out and about and also as a swimsuit cover up. Not super tight on the under side of the bump in case that’s something you’re looking for. It’s knit but wasn’t see through for bra/underwear.

Not for shorties
I’m usually a 4/6 pre-pregnancy, and with Seraphine sometimes their stuff runs small, so I chose the 6. This was too big all around for me - length, sleeves, and body. I rented this at weeks 23/24 and just felt sloppy. If I rented again i would size down and during third trimester.

Good option for early/mid pregnancy
I wore this at 23 weeks at my regular pre pregnancy size (4/6) to the office. It was just a tad bit tight to get over my hips and bump, so would probably have to size up or scrap this as an item any later than 23 weeks. That being said, it had ample stretch once it was on and didn’t feel restrictive. Since I’m short I wore this pulled up under my rib cage and it worked well. It kept me warm with tights on a cold NY day.

Huuuuge
I wore this pregnant at 24 weeks and was swimming in this. I’m a size 4 regularly prepregnancy so probably should’ve gotten an XS. It was warm though and a really nice color.

Not for short torsos or big boobs
This fit so strangely on me. I tried this out at week 25. The side panels were helpful and could definitely see the usefulness as your belly grew. I am a size 4/6 pre pregnancy and the M fit well in the shoulders and arms. However it already was super tight on my giant pregnancy boobs so it seemed kind of pointless to keep. Also if you have a short torso this is a touch too long and awkward fit.

Too big, kinda fug
This ran really big for me, and I rented at weeks 25/26. Maybe a good option towards the end of pregnancy but otherwise just felt big and sloppy. I was a size 4/6 pre-preg for reference

Only good early on
The good: as a short woman the inseam was perfect. The bad: I got these when I was 25 weeks and these were TIGHT! Would’ve loved these for maybe end of first tri, or early second. But no good after that.

Rented this for my bachelorette. Material is thicker than what the photos seem, which was perfect. I didn't wear a bra and felt totally fine. Super cute, really flattering!

Fit my curves perfectly - but a little challenging to get in by yourself
I rented this for an award show/dinner and it was perfect. Small red sequins throughout was the right amount of glam. I was worried the middle section would look weird, but I ended up liking it. Only tough part was getting this on myself - there are 3 snaps on the lower back. Other than that, loved it and got tons of compliments!

Looked great, runs a tad small
I rented this for a black tie wedding. The photos don't do it justice, the tuxedo detail along the back and slit totally make this dress. I honestly thought the dress via photos looked a bit boring but it wasn't at all. Only downside is it was pretty skintight for me, and I'm usually a solid 6 in Theia. Other than that, perfect!

Runs small, but looks great
If you are curvy this dress can be a bit difficult to size - I normally wear a 6, but the 8 was skintight and the 10 was a bit too loose. That being said, it was fun to wear for a more formal wedding. It is lined, so beware that it gets warm if you're at a summer wedding like I was!

Looks great, but can't dance!
Pros: loved the color, cut, fact I could wear a real bra Cons: rather tight for my bust, and rather limiting for dancing around at a wedding That said you can still eat and breathe in it :)
