Comfy and bump friendly
I wore this dress exploring Miami in the fall. It was light weight and breezy and excellent for maternity. I sized up one size to fit my 33-week bump. Love this dress!

Maternity option
I absolutely loved this dress for a fall wedding! I am 31 weeks pregnant in this picture (first pregnancy) and wore my usual size. I think one size up might have been too big for me at the top. The drop waist and stretchy material gave plenty of room for the bump. I was so comfortable all night and got tons of compliments!

Great for maternity
This dress was so comfy and flattering with a baby bump, without being an actual maternity dress! I am normally a size 6 / medium, but sized up to a large to fit the bump and my expanded pregnancy bust/ribcage. All bumps are different, but I am 31 weeks in this picture (first pregnancy) and had plenty of room. Wore to a business casual wedding welcome event and got lots of compliments. Only wish I’d had black boots to wear with it instead of brown!

Comfy but wrinkly
Flattering but may require a safety pin to keep the front from gaping if you are a little bit busty. Also does not travel super well because it gets super wrinkly.

Amazing
This dress was beautiful, comfortable and flattering. I wore to a work conference with brown riding boots. I only wish the skirt were lined, but I just wore a slip.

A but frumpy
I wore this to a work event. It ended up being a bit low at the neckline for me and I was tugging it closed all night. Wouldn't have been an issue if it wasn't a professional event. Overall I did not feel very good in this dress as it was not flattering to my body- the wrap was too high, almost right under the bust instead of at my true waist.

Fun and comfy
I wore this dress for a day in Miami and loved it! The fabric was comfortable in the heat and it had a conservative length and overall fit to be appropriate for family activities. The pockets are great too. Slightly too baggy for me in the waist and hips, but I have narrow hips and broader shoulders so I would not have sized down.

Festive and fabulous!!
I rented this dress for my firm's holiday party. It was SO shiny! I paired it with red heels and it was perfect for a festive occasion. As far as the fit, I am larger in the bust and have relatively broad shoulders. The 6 fit great at the top but the rest of the dress was a little big. I normally wear a 4 or a 6, but I think a 4 would have been too small at the top (which is why I wore a belt to give it a little more shape). Overall, beautiful and comfortable dress... I would rent this again!
