Parachute
I could not wear this piece because it was so large that it was comical.

Great for 3rd trimester
Plenty of belly room for a third trimester bump. Comfortable enough to wear dressed down with a pair of sandals/wedges or dressed up with pumps.

Not a maternity blouse after all
I thought this was a maternity blouse but I couldn't even get it past my shoulders without getting stuck. Perhaps it can work up to 16 weeks, but definitely not in the third trimester unless you order up a size or two.

Tent-like effect for petite sizes
I was disappointed that the Small Regular was not only too long but it also gave me a tent-like effect (not a great look when you're 35 weeks pregnant). Armholes opened down to my waist and neckline was down to my belly button. Will be returning this without having worn it.

Looks better when worn than on the hanger!
When this dress first arrived, my teen daughter exclaimed "eww...looks like a curtain." However, when I wore the dress to a neighborhood block party with a pair of sandals, she actually thought it looked cute! The dress was overall comfortable but a bit snug around the belly when I wore this dress at 30 weeks. It's a good thing it's lined in the front, which helped to minimize my protruding belly button. And, because it fits so snugly around the belly, it made the rest of my body (legs and arms) look skinnier --score!! I liked this dress so much I wore it twice!

Beautiful color and fit
Worn for a movie date, this dress fit perfectly and looked much better when worn compared to on the hanger! I was 32 weeks and weighted 130# at 5'1" and the dress hem came to mid calf on me. Can easily dress it up with a pair of pumps or dress down with sandals.

Perfect dress for my baby shower!
I rented this dress for my baby shower and it was perfect for the season and occasion. The material is luxuriously thick and I received many compliments. Worn at 33 weeks, 5'1" and 135#, the front hem came to mid calf and the belly was just right. I probably would not have enough room in the belly area to wear this dress again in the weeks remaining, but I wanted to save a special dress to rent for my shower so I'm happy I held off on wearing this dress until this occasion.

Great quality and fit
Thick material, fits true to size. Size small worn at 34 weeks, 5'1" and 135#. Worn for a dinner date. In a sea of pregnant women at the restaurant, I really stood out in this classic fuchsia dress!

Buttery soft material!
Soft cotton, stretchy, comfortable dress. Low neckline so I wore it with a pregnancy support tank. Great for spring.

Beautiful material!
Sexy dress, fits like a glove! So far one of my favorite rentals from RTR Maternity! Velvety, thick, stretchy, high quality material. Worn at 28 weeks, 130 pounds, usually wear size XS. I would love to rent this dress again.

1st RTR experience was phenomenal!!!
I had reservations about taking a risk renting a dress which I had never tried on, especially with regard to length which is my biggest problem being 5'1" but this dress was a head-turner, a show-stopper! I received compliments all night long, from my three young sons (who usually wouldn't know the difference) to fellow gala-attendees (both female and male). True to size but stretchy and forgiving, and easy to hop in and out of a car with swan doors. Although it looked like I spent a million bucks, I definitely didn't spend a million bucks. I'll definitely rent again from RTR. Advice to newbies like myself-read the reviews from others who are sized like you to get a good estimate of which size(s) to rent.
