Comfortable, stylish, and extra work to use the bathroom at 34 weeks
I'll start by saying I absolutely loved this jumpsuit! The style and fabric were very cute and perfect for summer. Pre-pregnancy I would probably be a medium or large (size 8), and the extra large fit me well, so it runs a bit small. I found there was enough room for my belly at 34 weeks. The only downside is that there's a little extra work when using the bathroom, which at 34 weeks, happens a bit more frequently. It was worth it to me, but something to consider.
Parton Maternity Jumpsuit
Show Me Your Mumu
Size Worn: XLR
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 34DD
Fun and flirty and worked for my 34 week pregnant belly!
I wore this dress to a welcome dinner party before a wedding. At 34 weeks pregnant, I was a little worried it would be too short, but the dress fit perfectly! I loved the off-shoulder style and the fact that I could wear a real bra. Fit was true to my pre-pregnancy size. Definitely would rent again!

Beautiful and comfortable at 34 weeks, a little bit revealing in the chest
I collected many compliments at a Labor Day weekend wedding in this dress. The dress was the perfect length and had plenty of room for my 5'8" and 34 week pregnant belly. The chest was a little revealing (those pregnancy boobs!) though I was able to improve it slightly with a safety pin. I loved the pastel coloring and the light fabric of this dress. Fit was true to my pre-pregnancy size. A great choice for a lovely wedding!

Insanely comfortable and nice look for wedding at 30 weeks
I should have bought this jumper. It was probably the most comfortable thing I've worn during pregnancy. I loved wearing it to a wedding at 30 weeks pregnant and being able to dance and move freely around (I.e. getting low during Shout!) Going to the bathroom was a little extra work with the zipper in the back, but I loved that I could wear a normal bra. The one thing about this jumper was that the fabric felt a little cheap and the black color was a bit faded. I would've loved to wear this in some other (brighter) colors! Fit was true to my pre-pregnancy size.
Adjustable Waist Floral Maternity Jumpsuit

Did not wear to my baby shower
I love the colors on this dress, and the material is very nice. Unfortunately the fit, like many others have mentioned, is very odd and there is just too much fabric on the top. I thought maybe this would work for me since I have a larger bust but it was just extra fabric in a way that I couldn't pin down. Ended up choosing another dress instead.
Floral Sleeveless Midi Dress
Slate & Willow
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8

Bust: 34DD
Comfortable and stylish at 32 weeks
I wore this dress to my baby shower at 32 weeks. It was a little bit on the short side, but I felt comfortable and it was nice and cool for the August weather. Got lots of compliments on the color! I would rent this again for another party or event and I think it would fit someone later in pregnancy as well. I would normally wear a medium, but I sized up to a large just in case.

In love with this dress
One of my top RTR rentals of all time. I felt amazing in this dress. It's a bit tight in the tummy (no stretch) and although the cut is low it didn't feel inadequate for my large bust. The color was stunning for my skin tone and hair color. Wish I could buy this!

Beautiful color but was a bit small
I wanted to love this dress but the fit was just a little too tight on me. Worn for a tour of the White House. Love the color and the lace. Beautiful dress but maybe size up?

Cute dress, a bit short for me
I loved this dress except I found it a bit short for my long legs. I felt like I was too old for this dress. Worn to a family wedding. Did the job but probably wouldn't rent again.
On Cloud Nine Dress

Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 34DD
Beautiful pattern and color, non-form fitting
Wore this to a friends wedding and overall enjoyed the dress though it wasn't my favorite RTR rental. Color was beautiful but the dress was a bit straight/shapeless on my curvy body. Dress did the job but I probably wouldn't rent again. Recommended for more athletic and non-curvy ladies!
Ocean View Sheath
Nicole Miller
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 34DD
Stylish and beautiful color with limited range of motion
I rented this as a backup and wore it because the earrings that I rented with my first choice dress arrived broken. I LOVE the deep blue and off the shoulder look. Material is comfortable and stretchy for curvy bodies. Wore a strapless bra and ladies were comfy all night. Would absolutely rent again.

Post-Wedding Brunch (for the Bride)
I wore this to my post-wedding brunch outside in a park. It was hot out and this dress is light/cool and flows nicely. I fit in the M but sized up for comfort (larger chest). Loved this dress and would rent again!

Perfect Wedding Rehersal Dress
Wore this to my dress rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, as well as again for the post reception dance party (changed out of my wedding dress). The M fit me but I sized up for more room. Loved the pattern and comfort. Would recommend/wear again!
Garden Floral Asymmetrical Dress
STYLESTALKER
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 34DD
Lovely color and perfect for summer weddings
The color was ideal for my skin tone/eye color. The v-neck was a bit revealing for my 34DD chest when bent over. Pockets were a bonus! Nice dress though not the one I originally ordered. Glad I found something this pretty.
Periwinkle Lace Sierra Dress
Shoshanna
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 34DD
Beautiful color and structured high-low dress
Loved this dress though it felt a bit huge /poofy when I first put it on. Comfortable, lovely colors and pockets!! The back nearly touched the ground while the front showed my knees, probably should have worn heels instead of flats. TTS. Love this designer!!
Red Abstract Floral Dress
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 10R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 9"

Beautiful colors, structure and pockets!!
This dress was a dream. I loved the bright colors, the sturdiness of the dress and the pockets :) it was my first off the shoulder rental and I'm hooked on this trend! Dress fit TTS, was practical and stylish. I matched my lips to the bright pink and got many compliments on the dress. Would absolutely rent again.
Blue Floral Jacquard Dress

Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 8

Perfect dress for my graduate school commencement
The fit was perfect (just slightly tight in the chest area - which is usually my issue) and the dress looked amazing. The blue color was beautiful and the lace looked amazing on my light-colored skin. I wish I could have kept this dress! It was the ideal pick for my graduation day.

Never Let You Go Sheath
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 34D+
Beautiful colors, timeless shape. Perfect dress for a grad school formal.
I wore an 8 as opposed to my normal size 6. The colors were lovely with my strawberry blond hair and fair skin tones. Dress is great (read: comfortable) for dancing and it was tasteful enough to hobnob with school administrators before the party got crazy.

I agree with other reviewers, the print on this dress is just gorgeous! I found the dress TTS (I wear a 6) and it excentuated my top very nicely. I could have worn this dress to a wedding, or out on a nice date. Very pretty - would rent again.

Gitan Floral Print Dress

I didn't even end up wearing this dress. I tried both a 6 and an 8 on (I normally wear a size 6) and neither of them fit around my bust. The dress is very stretchy and tight - smaller busted ladies will look great but it wasn't for me!
