Very sweet
I see a lot of people saying it runs small, I actually found it to run big. The one I received was new with tags, not sure that makes a difference or not

I can see how this could work well. It was pretty flattering. I got it as a dress I hoped I could breast-feed in but the buttons were too difficult for quick access

Skip this if you have any chest. I sized up and it was way too big but still didn't cover anything

This was just ok. So soft and both cozy and breathable for transitional days. I am 7 months postpartum and did not love how it hung on my chest

Loved!
I ordered this when I was close to the end of my pregnancy and ended up wearing it a ton in the test few days and weeks postpartum. It was so easy to wear and not sorry bulky underwear underneath and was also very easy for breastfeeding. I highly recommend for any time, pregnant, postpartum, or not

Love it
I love this dress. Is she pregnant, is she wearing pajamas, is she wearing a men’s shirt? Who knows. I sized up at 34+ weeks pregnant, but if I wasn’t pregnant, my regular size would have been perfect and honestly I could probably still wear a small, but it would probably be very short. If my feet weren’t swollen, I would be wearing this with boots. Pockets are an added bonus.

Pretty but mature
I loved this dress and can’t believe I didn’t get a picture in it, but it does have a slightly matronly vibe, at least when I put it on. Very comfortable and east to wear though!

Cute and structured
I ordered this at 36 weeks pregnant and wire to a concert with the marine layer drawstring jeans. It was kind of a bold look for me, absolutely nowhere to hide the belly! I forgot to get a picture before I returned it. I will say, the best felt simultaneously too big and too small, there was too much material in the shoulders and length, but not quite enough in the right places for my chest. I’m not sure what sizing I would recommend for someone not pregnant.

Not sure
I haven’t worn this out of the house yet. The knit is a little stiff, probably because it’s new, and doesn’t really hand how I want it to. I ordered a medium, but the armholes are really big. I can’t tell if even at 37 weeks I would have been better off with a small. I think it has potential, but not sure I’ll end up wearing it.

Unsure
These are pretty comfortable and cute if you’re ok with the drawstring jeans vibe. I tried them rolled down as well, but you can see some of the lining and pockets. If your shirt is long enough to meet them, I think they look even frumpier. All this to say, of course, these are not actually maternity pants and I’m wearing them at 37 weeks pregnant, so I sized up twice. If you are not pregnant and ordering in your regular size, none of this will apply!

Better in person
I wasn’t convinced I would like this online, but ended up loving it and wearing a lot. Currently 37 weeks and just returned, but definitely could have kept wearing in my regular size. The zip in the back has a really long pull so it’s actually not too hard to zip and unzip yourself. My husband loved it and I received lots of compliments.

Casual and easy
I really loved wearing this dress. Looking back at the photos, I’m not sure it was actually that flattering, but it felt great. I was about 28 weeks pregnant in these, so an awkward size. I did wear a bra, but the smock chest did not flatter my bust. I still think it’s great for throwing in and taking traveling.

Dreamy
I loved this dress, but it definitely wasn’t perfect. First of all, I thought the ties at the side were going to be functional like with a lot of tops right now, But they weren’t. The sides were completely seamed closed and the ties were just decorations. As another reviewer noted, the armhole drops really low and it did reveal a lot of side boob/bra. I decided to wear a black bra under it that didn’t stand out too much. The straps are a little too long and kept falling off my shoulders, so I actually hand stitched it to my bra strap one time. I wore it for our babymoon and maternity photos and thought about purchasing. It definitely takes a little work to make it right for you, but for me it was worth it.

Beachy cute
This was really cute, but did not do as much for me as for other folks. I got it at about 32 weeks to think about wearing for my baby shower. My boobs did not really fit inside and were awkwardly squished and smashed. I just didn’t feel comfortable. And there really is no way to wear a bra with it. I am a 28/30G before pregnancy. So if you have an ample chest, be warned this might not be for you.

Snug at waistband
Usually size 4, I went with a 28 thinning that in an under-bump maternity style that would be plenty. At 25 weeks, was incredibly uncomfortable. I could button, but it really cut in at my low belly and I couldn’t sit. Just ordered in two sizes up and hopeful they’ll work

Not for maternity!
This is cute and well made, but laughably small and almost impossible to put in pregnant. I am usually a 4-6 not pregnant and ordered a medium. I thought I was missing something when it arrived because I couldn’t find a long length zipper. There are two short zippers under the armpits, one on each side, that I imagine could provide breast feeding access, but the ONLY way to put it on is to wiggle your way through the small v neck over your whole body. I wore it once, but it was so difficult to get on and off to pee that it wasn’t worth it. The torso is also very short. As a usual small, maybe a large would have worked, but bc I’m not sure if the neck would be any wider, I wouldn’t waste a spot. Might be better postpartum for breast feeding of you don’t have to pee as often

I have another pair of Emmett jeans by Madewell, these fit much snugger and higher on the waist even though they're the same number size. There's also a seam all the way down the back leg of the pants

Fun and architectural !
I went up a size based on my chest and other reviews, but didn't need to. although it still fit ok, wild have been better off with a little less material. This would be great for going to watch the ballet or the opera! Not so great for dinner.

High quality
Wore this for a fancy dress party. It's very comfortable and the material is very nice. My chest is fairly large and the extra blousy material made me feel even bigger up top, but there was plenty of room. I used Boob tape to be able to leave the back completely open and ended up being really disappointed with how I looked in photos. I wish I had used the two optional snaps in the back and just worn a regular bra. It's not quite maxi length, and I'm short. I opted for comfort with cowboy boots, but would look better with strappy heels.

This jacket was frumpy, but not in a way that lent to a casual cool look. Them hemline was strangely curved so you couldn't even pull off boxy masculine look. Do not recommend

Gorgeous but odd fit
I originally ordered the size 10, but there wasn't enough room for my chest (30H) so tried the 12 as a size up. It ended up too big in the waist and hips but still not enough room for my chest. I do not recommend this dress for busty folks, sizing up does not seem to help

Love!
I adored this sweater. It's great quality and design and actually wool. I wore it over dresses, over button ups, paired with all different layers and outfits. I've tried aLOT of them, and This is probably the best wool pullover sweater RTR has available right now. Tons of compliments. One thing to note, there is a very slight puff in the shoulder that I liked, but others might not.

I wore these for a 1992 themed party. They fit well. There's a reason I don't own jeans in this style, I just don't find them the most flattering at the front of the hips and thighs on me. But they were perfect for the look!

Slinky snake dream
My husband and I both loved this dress! It's so smooth and silky and the cut is flattering. The pattern is dark so it doesn't scream snakeskin. I have a large chest and had plenty of room, but did pin the neckline so it covered my bra and cleavage the way I wanted it to

Great skirt. Sturdy but soft denim, minimal stretch and holds shape well. I usually wear a 28-29 but based on other reviewers went with a 26 and it was perfect. The slit is pretty high, this was more of an issue because of the cold than modesty for me

This sweater is very cute and high quality. I sized up to the medium based on other reviewers, and I'm glad I did. It is very short, so to be able to pair it over a boxy button up shirt, the medium was the right choice

Stunning!
I've been looking for a dress for my husbands 40th birthday party, and I think this is the one! It's been increasingly difficult to find something that isn't mostly polyester or polymer, but this is I think 100% viscose (poly liner). Like other reviews mentioned, not much stretch, but the small fit my frame well. 5'4, 135lb, 28G+ chest. I am able to sort of scoop my chest into place in this, but will probably wear boob tape for better support at the past. Def can't wear a bra with the open back, but from someone who can NEVER go braless, I think most people will feel supported and confident without bra in this dress.

Loved
I adored this dress. I was really skeptical that my chest would fit (28H) but it mostly did. I felt a little exposed at times, but I'm just not used to having that much of my chest uncovered. I did have to keep the straps at their shortest length and they slipped occasionally. I could not have gone braless with this dress, and luckily had a red bra that showed slightly but wasn't an issue. The straps had a little wear on them, but nothing problematic.

So perfect
I wore these almost daily on our trip to Italy, but somehow got almost no pictures in them. I'm 5'4" and they were the perfect wide leg, slightly oversized fit while still having a fitted waist. I wore these both cuffed and uncuffed. Looked great with a cropped top and chunkier tops and sweaters. Still considering buying!
