Cute but not the most flattering
Ordered my regular size while nursing and it fit fine, but I just didn't find it to be wildly flattering. Still would have worn but I wore something else for the event.

Wow this is small
Runs so small, even in a size up didn't come close to buttoning this thing closed (currently nursing and still trying to lose postpartum weight).. Too bad because it's super cute! Loved the detail on the back.

Beautiful
Wore for my son's baptism and felt beautiful. Ordered a size up since I'm nursing and the button still pulled a little, but I wore it anyway because what's a girl to do? Only complaint is that the waist tie sits too low, but this could also be because I ordered a size up from my usual.

Runs big
It's a very cute dress and I felt pretty in it, but the top runs very large. For reference, I'm nursing and ordered my normal size but it's still slightly too big in the bust. Can't wear a normal bra with it either due to the wide neckline. Really wanted to like it more.

Too tight for my nursing bust even after sizing up but as always it looked great. Might have to try two sizes up.

Beautiful
Wore this 3 days postpartum and I felt beautiful. Probably would have been too big if I wasn't nursing. Only downside is it is hard to wear a bra with, which I normally would have just forgone.

Not sure what type of human these straps are for
The straps are so long I had to pin them up like 3 inches, and even then the dress was still wonky. It was comfortable and I wore it around the house postpartum but the straps are so ridiculous I couldn't wear it out. Not that cute either tbh.

Not for third trimester bump
Rented this because another review said it's bump friendly, but it did not accommodate my bump even going up a size. Not flattering either due to the way the front is ribbed.

Fits a full term bump no prob in normal size. It gives me gloomy fall/winter vibes. Definitely not for summer or spring due to color and material. Soft and comfy.

Idk if anything is particularly flattering at 39/40 weeks but at least the dress itself is pretty. Straps would have been long on me if my bust hadn't gone up in size.

The perfect maternity dress
I loved this dress at the end of my third trimester. I sized up one size and it was perfect. I felt pretty and got so many compliments while feeling very comfortable. I only returned it because I already wore it everywhere.

Maternity always fits me weird
I honestly always have better luck with non-maternity clothing, even at full term. Anyway, this dress fit well enough and I wore it to church for Good Friday. The fit of the material was a little strange at the sides of my belly. I'm not exactly sure how to describe it. Nothing special but gets the job done.

Nothing special but comfy and 3rd tri friendly
It is soft and easy wear in my normal size even with a full term bump. The length is a touch strange but still looked fine with sneakers to be comfortable. It really is just something to be able to throw on and be comfortable.

Third tri bump friendly
I got many compliments wearing this dress in my third trimester. I felt very pretty in it. I would have worn it more, but unfortunately it was just a little too itchy for my belly. I rented my normal size with no fit issues. Paired with some sneaks and a cardigan.

Not stretchy enough for third trimester
This dress is so cute and I would have loved to wear it, but even sizing up a size, it doesn’t accommodate 36/37 week bump. I can’t size up more than that because things stop fitting everywhere else. Will rent again sans bump!

Could be bump friendly if it fits juuuuust right
I got this knowing that it could be hit or miss in the third trimester. I honestly could have worn it, but something just wasn’t quite right. I think I was the way it hit at my butt. It fit in my typical size though.

Almost but bump is too big
This dress would probably be good for earlier on in pregnancy before the bump gets too big. It fit fine at 8 months in my usual size, but it hung too far off the belly and made me look huge. Didn't wear which was too bad because it's a nice transition dress from winter to spring. Might try again after the baby comes.

Needs a slit - prepare to waddle like a penguin
I waddled around in this dress but not because I'm 8 months pregnant. There is no slit so I had to take very short strides which was annoying because this dress is otherwise perfect. Wore in my normal size, it fit perfectly, and I felt so pretty. I wore it casually to church with some nice sneakers and simple hoops.

Forever Sandro
Sandro just can't seem to lose in my books. Kept this for a few shipments and wore it to all sorts of things while 7-8 months pregnant and felt great about myself. Able to dress up or down, but even when dressing down, you will still look elevated. Only reason I'm returning is because the color is starting to feel too wintery for transitioning to spring in FL.

Compliments
This dress is very cute and I got compliments. Wore to my friend's karaoke bday party at 8 months bumpin and barely fit into my usual size. Sizing up would probably result in the top not fitting right. Unfortunately the material was a tad itchy so it irritated my belly. The slit was cute and sexy but would have made it inappropriate for work or church.

Not for the bumps
I think this dress would be cute and wonderful in any circumstance besides being pregnant. It's not flattering at 8 months due to the way it hangs off the belly. Also, the line down the middle agitated my sensitive belly button. Rented in my usual size which was the correct decision, for reference.

Easy to wear and style, and bump friendly in my usual size at 8 months. Wasn't a huge fan of the neckline so I wore a little neck scarf. Worked with sneakers.

Comfy
Bump friendly and so easy to throw on for day-to-day whatever or a casual dinner with friends, but not form fitting all the way over the belly so it just hangs off my 8 mo belly and makes me look huge. Will probably rent again after baby comes.

Preggy mamas might want to size up
It is a beautiful dress, but it’s tight around the belly at 28 weeks! There some sort of stitching that probably makes it very flattering for the non-pregnant women, but makes it tight for a significant bump. I probably could have gotten away with it a few weeks ago. Anyway, will try this dress again in a size up.

Beautiful dress, unflattering for bump
I was hoping to rent this for my baby shower since lots of others said it was bump friendly, but I just did not feel pretty or flattered in it at 28 weeks. Better on the hanger (which is wear it stayed)!

Unflattering for a bump
It’s a cute print and comfy dress but sadly unflattering for week 28 bump. To me, it did not feel as expensive as the price suggests. Did not wear.

Such an easy and comfy dress to throw on. Wore it for church, work, and errands. I will say it needs a good iron and then maybe another one, but it’s worth it for how many times I wore it.

Poorly sewn but lovely buttons
This is a very cute piece to go with the matching shirts. My only complaint is that the bottom button was not sewn in the right place, and so it gapped in between the bottom two buttons as if it was too small on me, but it wasn’t. There just wasn’t enough space to pull down the fabric. Such a simple thing to mess up and would have otherwise been perfect.

Idk where my figure went
I thought this dress would be a winner based on reviews and photos, but this dress just didn’t do anything for me. It fit, but it was also a little tight for comfort. Disclaimer: 9 weeks pregnant at the time and feeling very bloated.

A beautiful winner
This dress is simple but is such a great rental. I wore it to church and for work. Comfortable and sophisticated but not loud or too much. It does wrinkle, but I didn’t find that it took away from the look of the dress. It is a lovely and slightly heavier material.

Understated elegance
This is a very easy dress to wear. I wore it to church with a sky blue sweater, and white heels and purse. I felt simple and elegant. It is a heavier material, and the head hole does not stretch so put it on before doing your hair and makeup.

My husband and I had the same reaction: "It's weird, but I like it." It is a unique dress, and it fit me perfectly, so what is not to love? It is comfortable and has pockets.

Take small steps
The bunch at the waist looked really weird when it was centered, so I turned the skirt so that it sat at my hip which was better. It was easy to style with a fitted white tank top, similar to the one the model is wearing. I felt cute, chic, and a little sexy. However, you can't walk fast in it because there is no slit, and so you are confined to smaller steps. I naturally have a long stride so I felt a little constricted.

Unsure
These definitely were too big on me, but I still kind of liked them? They were more of a baggy street fit, so I wore them with a tight fitting crop top and chunky sneakers. I felt cute, but I also decided that I had to look in the mirror for too long to decide if I REALLY liked them, so decided not to keep for another round. I'm liking the looser short style this season though!
