Flattering over 5 month baby bump
Wore my usual size through first trimester and part of second. By the time the bump grew beyond 5 months, it pulled the slit up a little too high to feel work appropriate.

Booby and cute!
Wore with a bra and tucked the underboob fabric into underwire to avoid wardrobe malfunction. Lots of cleavage (DDD pre pregnancy and bigger now) but still a fun, light and comfy dress out. Wore 20 wks pregnant.

Fit for a day then got super baggy and fell down
At first I thought I'd found a pair of below the bump pants that could stay up! But after 2nd day of wearing they were sagging horribly

Loved but bottom wrinkled
Super cute - fabric thinner than I expected so didn't hold shape after travel. Also at 5'8" they fit well with flats but we're too short for a 2" boot, which I had hoped to wear with them.

Comfortable, versatile, flattering
Medium fit well and hit just below ankle length - I still have 10 lbs of extra baby weight (155 lbs 5'8") and felt like this dress made me feel curvy and cute! Emphasized waist and butt while minimizing front pooch. Probably could have sized down if I were pre-baby 2-4 but in my current 4-6 state this fit great. I wore it dressed down with sneakers and jean jacket but could have worn to black tie with the right heels. Versatile!

Good for short torso
I wanted to love but the suit felt just a smidge too short (worried I'd have a camel toe after walking out of the house). Everything else worked well - cute/flattering cut, fit boobs, hips and butt. Also hit at awkward length on shin. I'm 5'8" and have pretty standard proportions and think I'm too tall to comfortably wear this. Thought size medium would be fine but not quite long enough. Think large would be too loose.

LOVED!!!
Fit my large chest without being obscene; detailing around waist was super flattering. First time I've felt great in a dress since giving birth. No issues when wearing inside/without wind, but the skirt wraps around at a high point so if it catches wind outside you might flash people. Same getting in and out of cars.

Chic but not wow
Served its purpose as a work blazer. I think I was in between sizes (originally ordered 36 but exchanged bc it was too tight). The 38 would have been amazing had it been slightly more fitted.

Loved except had underboob!!
Elegant, flattering, would have been perfect except I have a large chest (extra large because currently nursing an infant) and the slits that are supposed to show off ribcage were just a window into the bottom of my boobs. Would have taken a lot of tape and I don’t even know what else to keep the sisters out of view. As such, didn’t wear. But felt great otherwise (this dress even flattering with postpartum pooch!) at current 160 lbs.

Would have been great if it covered my behind! Currently 3 months postpartum, 160 lbs, ~size 8 and busty. The 44 would have fit great had it been 8” longer! Unwearable.

Needed size 3 for third trimester
Originally ordered size 1 and it was way too small so exchanged. Pre-pregnancy I was a size 2-4, 135 lbs. Third trimester ended up with a big belly and pre-pregnancy size did not translate well to maternity clothes. Size 3 fit. Color was weird tho - kind of a yellowish brown (not great) and pants hit awkwardly high/were a bit too short.
