Promising review: "Really beautiful dress! Looks so nice on, and bought it for a wedding when I was 22 weeks pregnant. The material has stretch to fit, and then it'll still fit me great post-pregnancy! I'm between small and medium. I sized up to the medium to accommodate my bump. Definitely recommend." —JaellePrice: $118+ (available in standard sizes XXS–XL, plus sizes 1X–3X, and 14 colors)
