Fabulous!
I wore this dress to a wedding when I was about 6 mos pregnant. It's got great movement and really flattered by bump. I got compliments all night. Loved it! RtR only had a ML size available when I rented, but I definitely could have worn my normal size (small) had it been available, even with the growing belly.

Gorgeous color, hem line is weird
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner when I was 7.5 mos pregnant. It's roomy through the belly, so I was able to wear my normal size (s) and the dress fit well through the chest and arm/neck holes. The fabric feels nice and the color is beautiful. The one thing I didn't anticipate is that the hem line is really jagged- it looks like it got caught in a door and ripped. Not a deal breaker, but the picture doesn't really represent this.

Weird material, does not fall well
I was really disappointed with this dress. The material is VERY heavy and thick, and not in a good way. Other reviewers have stated that it's like a sack, and I definitely found this to be true- even with a belt, it had no shape and just felt heavy and awkward looking. The strips of fabric on the back arrived tied in a knot, and the fabric wouldn't smooth out no matter what I did. The color is a lot more orange than it looks in the photo too. I wanted so badly for this to be a beautiful and elegant dress, but it really just failed in all aspects. Sad. :(

Dena Gown

Beautiful but HUGE
I usually wear a size 4 or 6, and I ordered only the 6 in this dress since the 4 was unavailable for my rental period. The dress looks just like pictured- its gorgeous and really fun. Unfortunately, the dress was gigantic on me. The bust area was 2-3 sizes too large, but even if I could have fixed this with a great bra and some tape, the waist and hip area was huge too. The dress was so large that I'm confident that I would have been swimming in a 4. I'd recommend sizing down AT LEAST one size in this dress if you want it to stay on!

Lovely and comfortable- especially with a bump
This dress was so comfortable and elegant. I wore it when I was six months pregnant (but still not too big in the belly), and it was flattering and fit really well.

Midori Maxi
Thakoon
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 8"

Weird fit
I rented this dress as a backup in case the one I really liked didn't look good. I'm lucky I ended up liking the first dress, because this one didn't work at all! I'm very small chested and usually end up having to get a bigger size to fit my bottom half while the top ends up being a bit loose. This dress fit me fine in the waist and hips, but I could barely close it at the top! I'd recommend sizing up if you have a chest bigger than an A cup or if you have broader shoulders.

Daisy Lace Dress

Perfect!
The necklace is the perfect length to wear with both low and high necklines. I ended up wearing it almost the entire weekend- it really changes the look a lot when reversed so it can be dressed up or down.

Pretty but short!
I wore this dress to a wedding and received a number of compliments. I am 5'8" and usually wear a 4 in dresses, but ended up wearing the size 6 just for the extra length. Even with the larger size, the dress only just came to mid-thigh (and that's the outer shell- the liner underneath is even shorter). It's a beautiful dress, but I would definitely advise that tall ladies size up to avoid some indecent exposure!
