4 weeks Postpartum
I am 4 weeks postpartum and ordered this to be a conservative look for an event for my daughter's school. It ended up being a little short and i didnt fee comfortable wearing it. Also, I am larger in the booty area and it was not as flowy on me in that area as it should have been. I ordered a size up from my prepregnancy size and I think if i had gone any bigger it would have been too big up top. Just don't think this is the most flattering look for a pear shape or hourglass shape figure.

4 Weeks Postpartum
I am 4 weeks postpartum and this was very flattering and compfortable. It is winter and i oaired it with velvet black leggings. I chose a soze larger than i was prepregnancy but i think my normal size would have worked. I like the loose look - so, if you are going for that look i would size up because of the length.

I was 3 weeks postpartum and this dress was very flattering and comfortable. I went a size pigger but I think my prepregnancy size would have worked too.

Beautiful Dress
Really beautiful dress. I am 1 month postpartum and i thought this dress would be perfect because it is flowy. However, the skirt part has an under slip that is tight and has no stretch. If you are renting this dress be aware that the bottom underslip is tight and you may need to size up.

Not the best fit for a 31 week bump
I️ really loved the color and shape of the dress. I️ did not realize there was a cut out on the back. I️ would have worn this with a jacket to work it was just a little uncomfortable with my soccer ball bump and my bump made the dress really short. This would be a perfect dress in your first/second trimester. The shape is perfect to flatter a pregnant bump, but I️ think the third trimester bump just didn't work. I️ went with a size 4 which is two sizes bigger than my normal size any bigger would have been too big but the size 4 was uncomfortable around the bump.

Scuba Material that can be tough to pull off at work
I really loved this dress. I was trying to wear it to work, but I think it is more fitting for a wedding. I am 29 weeks pregnant which made this dress even harder to pull off for a work event. The material is stretchy, but given the lightness of the color and the material you could somewhat see the belly button area (pregnant girl only issue). I ended up not wearing this dress given my circumstances, but I think it would be a great dress for non-pregnant girls or 1st trimester/early 2nd trimester girls.

Works for a 28 Week Bump
This shirt was very flattering. It could have been more flowy and a little longer, but I probably should have chosen a size up due to being 7 months pregnant. Great shirt for pregnant or non-pregnant ladies, but if you do have a significant bump (mine looks like a soccer ball size), I would size up to maximize the comfort of the shirt.

28 week bump approved
This dress was a great fit that was really flattering with a 28 week bump. I went up 2 sizes and my bump is the size of a soccer ball. The dress was a little short, but I wore leggings underneath and it looked cute. Great dress and would recommend it to pregnant ladies or non-pregnant ladies.

28 week bump fail
I ordered this in a size 4 and it would have zipped up, but been very tight in the stomach region. I am 28 weeks pregnant and size 4 has been working in other brands, but this did not have enough stretch for my soccer ball bump. It fit everywhere else and was a very nice looking dress. The size 6 would have probably fit. Therefore, if you have a soccer ball at 28 weeks, you may want to go a size bigger than you think.

Fit my 26 week Lady Lumps
I am 26 weeks pregnant. This dress was comfortable and pretty. I wore 1 size bigger than my normal size (0R to 2R). There is no stretch in the material, but it is loose and the one size up fit perfect. Great Fall maxi dress.

25 Week Baby Bump Approved
This is the most flattering thing I have worn in my 2nd trimester. Not only can you pair it with some comfortable leggings, but the shirt itself is super comfortable. I would normally wear an XS and I probably could have gotten away with the XS, but the Small was the perfect most flattering length to cover my booty. Great shirt - can't say that enough!

25 Week Bump Approved
I am 25 weeks pregnant - I usually wear a size 0 in Kate Spade but with my bump I went to a size 4 which fit great. There is no stretch in the material, but again the up sizing 2 sizes was comfortable and a good fit.

25 Week Bump Approved
This dress was very comfortable and flattering to the pregnant body. I am 25 weeks and with my bump I have been fitting into a size 4. My only complaint was that my bra showed under my arm because the arm holes were wide - maybe with the XS that would not have been an issue. However, I just threw on a white cardigan and all was fine with that issue.

24 Week Baby Bump Approved
I am 24 weeks with a big bump and I have a bottom - I went up 2 sizes from my normal size and the fit was great-the top has some stretch so it fit my smaller upper area and the bottom was not a stretch material but the size 4 was perfect for my pregnant figure. I wore this dress with a suit jacket for a conference, but it could be a nice cocktail dress for a night out. From the front and back you could see the bump but it was somewhat hidden. However, if you are self conscious about looking a little big from the side - it does have a full bottom with thick material. It did not bother me because it was comfortable and allowed people to know I was pregnant without the tight silhouette.

Baby Bump Approved
At 24 weeks pregnant, this dress fit well. I went up 2 sizes (from my pre-pregnant size) in Kate Spade to make sure it fit (from a size 0 to size 4). It was comfortable and great for work.

Works with a Bump (24 Weeks)
I am 24 weeks pregnant and I was able to wear a size 2. The fit was great for a girl with a bump and a booty; however, it was short for work/church which is where I wore it. I wore the dress with black stockings and black boots to offset the shortness.

Easter Sunday Perfection
Pros: fit was great; silhouette is slimming; the flowers in the fabric are beautiful Cons: on the shorter side - I wore it to church but was constantly worried my baby would pull it up without me knowing because the fabric stands out - however it never came up and all was good Wore with nude shoes - did not wear with a belt but a belt would look cute with it

Sporty fit
Pros: material was stretchy; halterish top making it look a little sporty; and I liked the length (below the knee); comfortable Cons: for those who have a bigger bottom - it makes the silhouette look a little weird from the side - it is tight and goes out right under the bottom. Wore with nude shoes

Dainty dress
Pros: The silhouette is slimming; colors are great; pockets; tailored; good fabric; a little stretch in fabric making it very comfortable. Cons: zipper is hard to zip - I had to zip the dress and then put it on because the zipper was so hard. Many compliments - wore with nude shoes.

Unique tailored dress
Fit works well. My size in waist and chest is two sizes smaller than my hip size and this fit great. Works well with a belt and does have a stretch in it. Although it has small cut outs on the top, I was able to wear a normal nude bra.

Best Dress
The color was amazing. This dress is a show stopper. It has a little stretch. The stretch keeps everything looking tight. I am smaller up top and went a size smaller and was happy - it fit like a glove.

Thin fabric and on the shorter side
This dress looks great with a pair of stockings and black booties; however, if you order it in the Spring or Summer and are unable to wear stockings, just know it is a very thin material and runs on the shorter side. I loved the pattern and fit of the dress, but again the fabric is very thin.

Great print on this dress. I wore the dress to casual work Friday with a cardigan and to the Zoo with a jean jacket and small belt. It was comfortable and looked great for both activities. The print is really unique and pretty; the fabric is great; and the dress is well made.

Pretty in pink
This dress is a great color and a great fabric. I have a smaller waist and it fit a little big in the waist; so, I just added a belt to it and it looked great.

Cold shoulder sassy dress
Great girls night out or date night dress. Only reason why I didn't rate it a 5 is because it was a little snug on the hip area. However, my body shape is bigger in the booty area so that will probably not be an issue for others.

Conservative but Flattering
Looks really professional but fashionable. The hem was undone so I sewed it and the collar was not as white as pictured probably from being used. These issues did not keep me from wearing the dress and I got a lot of compliments.
