Super comfy and stretchy!
Great LBD for pregnancy. The tulip hem balanced out my pear shape and added a cute detail to a comfy LBD. Great for date night or work with a blazer.

Tulip Hem Maternity Dress
Ingrid & Isabel
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Great color
I am normally an XS top and could have done an XXS in this - it was pretty flowy and long. However, it was really cute for a date night and the color is great.

Magenta Heather Maternity Top
FOR 2 by Ramy Brook
Size Worn: XS
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Nice color
I'm 6 months pregnant and sized up to a 6 from my usual 4. Unfortunately, the top part was huge so I couldn't wear this.

Allover Eyelet Wrap Dress
J.Crew
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Cute fabric and color
I am usually a size 4 dress pre-pregnancy so that's what I rented, but this runs small and has 0 stretch so it was shorter and tighter than I would have liked so I didn't wear. If you're pear shaped I'd definitely suggest sizing up because it's a tapered sheath.

Sienna Maternity Dress
Seraphine
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Did not wear. Cute fabric though
I sized up to a medium bc I'm six months pregnant but that made this too large in the top. The extra fabric just wasn't flattering. It is cute though and different.

Cherry Check Merci Dress
FINDERS KEEPERS
Size Worn: MR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Cute silhouette and fabric
Overall very long and large. Should've gone with an XS

Woven Flutter Maternity Top
Ingrid & Isabel
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Nice everyday black jeans
I'm 5'4" and these are a little long but that's to be expected. Comfortable waistband.

Black Mama J Maternity Jeans
J BRAND
Size Worn: 28
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Nice color
This was way too big and open up top and I wish it would have had some stretch. Just not flattering for a changing pregnancy chest. Did not wear.

Bessie Maternity Dress
Seraphine
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Hugged my pregnancy curves
I'm normally a 4/small in dresses but I read the other reviews and sized up. This fit well at 6 months pregnant. The color is nice for daytime. Would be good for work also.

Red Maternity Sheath
Paper Crown
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Bust: 34C
Wore this to a gala and got compliments all evening long. This dress was very easy to wear!
I wore this dress at 14 weeks pregnant. The trumpet style of the skirt and the blouson top balanced out the little tummy I was starting to show. I wasn't a huge fan of the how long the ties were but I got used to them. The black skirt is stretchy and forgiving. I am 5'4", and the regular length was just right with 4" heels.

Great work dress
I wore this for a fundraising event that I managed, and it was the perfect mix of professional, comfortable, and eye catching. The fabric was forgiving and stretchy.

Cinco de Mayo fun!
I wore this to a concert on Cinco de Mayo and it was super fun, festive and comfortable. I really enjoyed wearing it and the petite length was just right for a short wedge. If you want higher heels and are taller than 5'2" or 5'3" the regular size may work better. Also, I had the Small Regular sent as a backup size and it was huge! This runs big.

Standout jumpsuit
This jumpsuit was so much fun! It was really comfortable and I got a lot of compliments. I'm 5'4" so the length was a little long with 4 inch heels but I was able to wear it. I was out of time and was unable to get fashion tape but I'm sure that would have helped.

Red Sweetheart Jumpsuit
Adelyn Rae
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 132lbs
Bust: 34B
Didn't wear
I ended up shipping this to the store so that, in the event that it didn't work, I could exchange it for another style. I'm glad I did because both the original and backup sizes (XSR and SR) didn't fit right. I'm pear shaped, so the XS fit on top but was tight on my hips, and the S was the opposite problem. It would be cute on someone with a more athletic or hourglass figure. Ended up exchanging for the Adelyn Rae Red Sweetheart Jumpsuit in SR, which was much more flattering.

Great for Rehearsal Dinner
I originally got another dress from RTR and it fit weird, so I had this dress overnighted. It's different than what I usually wear-- I tend to like more fit and flare dresses. But, I loved the fabric, the lace detail and the slim fit. It was perfect for my rehearsal dinner!

My first black tie event, and I looked like I spent way more on my dress than I actually did!
I loved this dress. Wore it to a black tie NYE party, and it was great. The straps look great, but since I'm younger, I decided to tuck in one of the straps and make it a one shouldered dress. You could't even tell! I don't think the dress was too long, with heels. I got the regular size and it was fine. My mom also rented a Badgley Mischka dress for the occassion as well and was extremely satisfied. Money well spent!
