Cute!
Runs on the large and flowy side, great for third trimester. The fabric is really soft and comfortable and the design is pretty

Cute but small
Ran very tight and looked pretty vavavoom in third trimester. But once I got it on I was too tired to get it back off. When it came off, it was never going back on again. Quite the workout with only a few weeks before delivery.

Lived in these
If I had found these at the start of pregnancy, I might have bought them. They were the only consistently comfortable pair of jeans I found through the whole pregnancy, and I kept them two months.

Unflattering
The fit was right on, but this made me look very matronly, which I know is funny to say from a pregnant lady but it was not real cute. I never wore it as a result.

Cute and comfortable dress
I wasn't wild about the print (pun intended), but this was actually pretty comfortable and flowy to wear so won me over despite my lack of enthusiasm for color and print.

Loved it
Wore this to my family photoshoot while 7 months pregnant and felt comfortable, confident and beautiful. I actually preferred to wear the dress and the sweater as separates, which made it feel like a fun bonus rental. Soft, not itchy, and beautiful color in person

Super Cute but Way Too Large
I actually loved how these felt and look. The fabric is nice, the flare on the bottom is really nice, and it looks cute on my bum. Unfortunately.... they completely fall off of me. Would definitely rent again in a smaller size.

Cropped sweater for wearing over dresses
This sweater is super cute and I wore it multiple times. Very warm, comfortable and soft, easy to throw over things. The only caveat that I have is that if you're trying to style with jeans this is probably not the one for you- it was best over dresses because it is definitely cropped and comes up pretty high on my stomach. But cute over dresses anyway!

Super cute!
I didn't actually end up wearing this because I didn't have an occasion for the bright red, but it actually did work on a third trimester belly, although it did feel a bit tight and I was a little personally self conscious between color and fit. Cute and soft though!

Cute and Casual
Wore this a few times just around the house and for Halloween. It was surprisingly comfortable, although did start to get tight on my 7.5 months pregnant belly (it was perfect at the start of the month!) the pattern is kind of dark and fun and the fabric is comfortable and smooth

Very unflattering
This is the single most unflattering dress I think I've worn. The sleeves are very itchy, the neck was tight, and the whole dress felt tight too. Despite that, you couldn't even really see the cool pattern in the sleeves. The neck felt like it was choking me. My husband said I looked like a puritan.

Absolutely Loved
I absolutely LOVED this dress - so fun to wear. Swirly twirly, gives you that drama moment of walking in with all eyes on you, but still feels very classy and elegant. I opted against adding any color to this and went for a monochrome gold/beige head to toe look, with my dark hair and red lips as a focus. If you're inclined for hair up, it's probably great for that (I'm not that skilled). Note that no bras that connect in the front really work, but I felt comfortable with just petals and no shapewear. The ties do slip a bit in the back, but not enough that you feel they'd come undone.

Gorgeous Color
I didn't ultimately end up wearing this as I had another option. Pros: The color is gorgeous and stand out, the back is amazing, the high slit is very cool without showing too much or being too uncomfortable. Very drama bond girl moment. Cons: my dress had an issue with the neck line where the top back button was pulled at the fabric level. This meant that the neck didn't really sit right which sort of ruined the look. Additionally the hems and the seems were just a little.. not straight. I know that's picky, but it bugged me. Lastly - if you're someone who's not prone to cleavage without assistance, note that this dress offers you no great options for boosting. This wasn't a huge problem for me but I might have actually been happier with a slightly higher neckline so that I could have at least worn a low cut bra.

She's Tight!
The good: This dress is really nicely lined, so the inside of it is not itchy and it's a thick enough forgiving fabric that you don't need to worry much about your undergarment selection. It's beautiful, classy and just a little sassy and would have been fun to show off I think. The less good: The dress is really form fitting - maybe on the small side of a six though it was just about right for me if I wore a contour bra. There are only two places I really had an issue with - under the armpits it was quite tight and therefore a itchy, and the neck is very tight. I'm someone who tends to have issues with turtlenecks in general and I'm very sensitive to tight things there, and this definitely was a bit of a squeeze.. and I don't think I have a large neck (if that's a thing?). I would have put up with the cons, but alas wasn't able to wear it to my event because my date came down COVID. Perhaps I'll wear it around the house to fabulously do laundry.

Tons of Compliments and Super Fun!
I typically wear a medium (usually I'm a size 6), but this time I opted for the large. I found the medium to be very tight and short and vavavoom. Don't get me wrong, I'm not afraid to show a little leg and some curve, but for my husbands holiday party the medium was very Pitbull's back up dancer. The large was still very mini, covering just a few inches below the bum. Recommended for those who are very body confident as it's not too forgiving - definitely love your thighs if you rent this. I got a lot of great compliments and it was very fun to wear.

I LOVE this Dress!
It looks super simple but this dress is amazing, I didn't want to give it back. It fits absolutely perfectly and just on the right spot for us short waisted gals. The skirt is amazing - super floaty and fun. Would be great for dancing. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be renting this one again!

Ended Up Not Wearing It
There's no issue about the fabric - beautiful fabric, nice luster. Skirt is fun and swingy. I rented this for my rehearsal dinner and ultimately it just didn't feel special on me. I tend to be a bit short waisted and so my weight goes right to the natural waist, and as this dress accentuates that region, I just wasn't comfortable in it and felt a bit heavy.

So Much Fun - Felt Really Sexy!
I loved this dress, I didn't want to send it back! I wore this for my fiancés holiday party - it's not very conservative but I still didn't feel out loud line because the back isn't low and it's not too too short. Overall very hot! **Pros: True to size and form hugging, but the fabric is fairly thick so it's pretty forgiving. Color is gorgeous and rich. Extremely flattering and got tons of compliments. I felt like Sofia Vergara. **Cons: There were a few threads pulled - not a huge deal. And it IS a bit itchy. **Tips: You'll definitely need to wear a low cut bra with this one as it is very low cut - or nothing, if you're bold - like I said the fabric is thick and it's pretty form hugging so no one would know. **Don't wear it if: you're going for a conservative look, or you're self conscious about showing too much cleavage. This dress is all about that vavavoom!
