Beautiful color and style
I wish this would have fit, but I'm 6 months pregnant and the waistline didn't fit with my bump (I was 50/50 on whether it would fit in the waist base on the reviews). For reference: pre pregnancy size is 0 and the 4 wouldn't zip. The bow is really fun, and I love the color. Great quality fabric.

Bougainvillea Bow Back Dress

Fun bright dress for a semi dressy event or a night out
As the reviews mention, this is a lot brighter than the pictures suggest but I loved the color, think highlighter orange. I am 6 months pregnant and this was easy to wear (as long as your chest isn't too big and lets it hang right) and camouflages the belly. I considered wearing this to a FL wedding but ended up wearing a different dress for that and wore this to a dinner just for fun.

Lovely color and style. Bump friendly for sure and definitely runs really big.
I wanted to wear this to a wedding, and though the reviews said to order your pre pregnancy size, I went one size up and the 2P was way too big. I tried to order a replacement 0P, but none were available so I went with another dress. Great dress for expecting ladies and I really loved the color. At 5'1" I had to wear at least 3" heels to barely clear the floor.

Super fun, comfortable in the waist, tons of compliments!
I loved this dress! It was so fun to wear to a formal wedding and I got lots of compliments. I'm 6 months pregnant and was hopeful this dress would work (pre-pregnancy size is 0 and wore this in a M). The notes suggested that it didn't have any stretch, but i found that it did and was comfortable in the waist all night - the tiered design was bump friendly/flattering. The dress is a little scratch under the arms, but it was ok all things considered. Would definitely rent this again though I did have to request a replacement dress (easy to do thanks to RTR customer service and overnight delivery) as the first one I received didn't hold its shape well on the bottom including the lining which was all clumped together.

Peony Sequin Garden Dress

Fitted, could work for cocktail party/wedding or fun business occasion
I'm trying out RTR unlimited and considered this dress for a Florida wedding. It's very fitted which is why I ultimately went with another dress (loved that I could try 3 different dresses at once) as I'm in my second trimester and didn't want a look that was so form fitting. The color is gorgeous, and I loved the hint of sparkle/metallic mixed in. The dress material can show signs of wear (small snags here and there) but not necessarily noticeable to bystanders. If I'd had a somewhat dressy work event, I would have considered wearing it but in the end I just tried it on.

Dipped Mint Sheath

Flattering cut and beautiful fabric!
I fell in love with this dress online and was so happy it fit, albeit a little tight given there's no stretch in the waist and I'm 21 weeks pregnant. (I'm usually a size 0 but ordered a 4 to give room for my bump.) All in all, I got tons of compliments and felt great in this dress. I did try to use fashion tape to help with the looser top, but it didn't hold. You might be able to wear a NuBra with this low cut neckline, but I went braless. Also, I received the dress with a loose hem - it was fine ultimately with a little reinforcement, but RTR should check all edges when receiving/sending dresses. I'd rent this dress again!
