Perfect summer maternity dress

This dress is perfect for a summer pregnancy! Very flowy. I'm 5'7 and it's a little on the short side.

Easy Flowy dress

Wore at 25 weeks and plenty of space. May be on the shorter side with a bigger bump. But nice, light material for warm weather. Sleeves are a bit of a weird length but they worked.

Cutest Maternity Dress

Lots of room, super airy and light. I dressed this up for work on Fridays with flats and tossed on tennis on the weekend for daytime events and errands. Very easy to throw on and go, I wore multiple times while 23-26 weeks pregnant and will consider renting again during this pregnancy. Recommend!

Great even in the third trimester - makes the bump look extra cute and very comfortable to take on and off.

But it does run short, so if you will be someplace windy, like a beach, be aware that it will fly up

Loved this I wanted to buy it after maternity

I loved this dress so, so much. I didn't actually wear it while I was pregnant, but I rented it right after giving birth because it was still summer and none of my regular clothes fit. It unbuttons to make bf easy. The fit was awesome and it made me feel cute. I'm 5'8", and it was just a little too short when bending over / putting baby in the car. If it was about 2 inches longer I would've bought it!

Wore it with sneakers for more casual look and with nice sandals on vacation. It fit great until the end of my 3rd trimester when it got too short

A little short as the bump grows

I paired this with biker shorts, as my bump is huge and I was nervous I'd be flashing everyone! Otherwise, it was comfortable, light-weight and perfect for the insane heat wave our area was having.

I wore this everywhere throughout the 2nd trimester and got a ton of compliments. It's flowy and roomy but with enough structure that it's still flattering.

I liked it but my husband did not.

I thought this dress was super cute but my husband said it wasn't flattering at all. My husband has never told me that so I'll take his word for it.

Too Short!

I wanted to love this but it is too short, especially farther along in pregnancy. Wore this at beginning of 3rd trimester and was constantly concerned about flashing someone with any bit of wind. Hard running after a toddler and bending over.

I felt that was too BIG for me

Probably I should have picked the M size but I was confused because it says M (6-8) L (10), and I am usually a 8, but thought that could run small. If you are in between and you are usually an 8, I would recommend going with the M

Runs huge, definitely size down. I didn't get to wear it as it was just too big but I think would be nice smaller.

I rented the dress to wear while on vacation, but it was way too big! The size is not flattering at all and the lines only make you look bigger.

Unflattering

Is this supposed to be for maternity? I'm so confused. RTR recommended this dress for third trimester maternity, but the seam on the dress goes over the middle of my bump, with the ruffled bottom flowing down. Reminds me of Taylor Swift's line, "in a dress shaped like a pastry." Not exactly how I want to appear when I already feel gigantic. I actually don't think it would be flattering for anyone - even if you're not pregnant. Don't bother.

Cute, but very short

I wanted to wear this to work, but it is extremely short so I didn’t. I’m 5’7” so if you’re shorter than that it would probably be fine. It was very cute and I felt comfortable once I put shorts on underneath.
