Go Braless
Post breastfeeding chest could not bring me to wearing this commando but its absolutely gorgeous and flattering. Wish there was a way I could work around the lower back with a bra but I ended up putting it back in the bag. Beautiful material, color, length. Would for sure wear it if I could!

A bit snug but very cute
Cute and colorful. Material was snug and synthetic so not very breathable in the heat of summer.

Nice material
Nice cotton dress for summer. I didnt end up wearing because it didn't flatter my body type but if I had a smaller chest I'd feel more comfortable. Very airy and light and loose.

Its a no for a curvy bod
I have an hourglass figure. The material on top was stretched out despite having a very large chest where nothing is ever too big on me usually. The length where the top and skirt connected was so awkward. Very very unflattering. Took it off immediately.

Would give this a 12/10!
LOVED this skirt. Full skirt, two slits but theyre not the kind that stay wide open so it was nice and family event appropriate. I wore this to a pool party over my swimsuit and felt appropriately covered but also light and airy. The only thing it's missing is pockets. Would definitely rent again.

Pretty white dress
I liked this dress. The material is a crispy cotton and not see-through. Chest was a bit oversized, so I would size down.

Not bad, good basic
Not bad but not great. It was a nice light basic that I wore to an outdoor corporate event, paired with sneakers. It wasn't flattering but it was weather appropriate.

Work Event
I wore this to a work event with a basic black tee. This is a heavy knitted material, better suited for fall/winter cooler weather, and I wore it in NYC mid summer, so it was definitely heavy material but it photographed well and I received a few compliments. It felt pretty and feminine.

So flattering
Curvy girl here! This was so flattering, I ended up wearing it twice. I skipped the bra and spanx in this piece. Extremely flattering which is hard to find for my body type! Straps are adjustable. No pockets. Length is perfect. Skirt has just the right amount of volume. Material is high quality.

Graphic Pattern Sweater

Stretchy comfy dress
No zippers, stretchy, and easy to put on. The dress was flattering on my figure and I recieved so many complements. I had to wear shapewear because it did not feel structured enough to make me feel snatched. I'm 6 months post partum and have some loose belly skin so that's a pain point for me! The length of the dress was perfect, just missed the floor with heels on. I wore a regular bra and pulled the straps down but then it kept showing because the dress drooped lower than the strap. Would have worn it with a strapless bra in hindsight, or taped the sleeve down above the strap. Overall, a great pick for a fall wedding guest dress.

Effortless chic summer dress
Fabric has a bit of stretch. Beautifully made with fine detailing. HAS POCKETS! This was sent as a backup dress since the original purchase did not fit. Was not able to wear it bc it didn't arrive in time, however will rent again. Length is perfect. I am wearing the size 10 in the photo, and the 12 was too large. My chest is large but didn't need a bra. Also, noting I'm 2 months post partum so I'm still kind of adjusting to this new body and trying to get a better understanding of what now fits!

Maternity Photo Shoot Dress
Wore this for my maternity pics at about 30 weeks and it was so flattering, styled with nude pumps. Material is thick and sturdy so it held me in all the right places without needing shapewear. LOVE the details on the sleeves.

Maternity friendly
Not the quality I would expect from Staud, but I had ordered this and another dress for my maternity shoot. I ended up wearing the other option for pictures but made use of this one by wearing it out to dinner with black suede boots. Would recommend for less curvy girls. I am an hourglass shape and pregnant belly on top of that currently, so I felt like the lines accentuated my shape.

Pregnant-friendly
Wore this dress at 33 weeks pregnant to a bridal shower and recieved a lot of compliments. I have large breasts and they fit comfortably with no bra. The colors were SUPER bright, which I didnt expect but the fabric is nice structured cotton with a lining under the skirt. Well made.

Perfect Baby Shower Dress
Wore this to my baby shower and the venue was Greek/Mediterranean style so it went really well with the vibe. I've spent the majority of my pregnancy in oversized sweaters and leggings so this was the first time everyone saw my bump and the dress was so flattering I received so many compliments! I fell pretty and it held me in all the right spots. The sleeves were a bit tight, as mentioned in other reviews but it didn't bother me that much. No zippers or anything to get into the dress, it just slipped right on. Also the material doesn't need steaming or any maintenance which was nice because I had to pack it and got dressed at the venue after setting up the decor. Overall I felt great and would recommend for all the curvy girls out there - pregnant or not!

Perfect ballgown
I wore this to a wedding and received so many compliments. The color was perfect, it had pockets, great quality with a beautiful full skirt that hid my newly pregnant belly. Only regret was not ordering it in a size smaller because I over anticipated my size in my growing body. The straps were a bit long and the chest area was a bit too loose, even for my larger bust size. Didn't have to wear a bra or spanks! The length just brushed the floor in my 3" heels. I felt like Mia Thermopolis in the Princess Diaries all night.
