Do not pass on this dress ladies! This is actually a maternity dress but really it is just more comfy in the belly area....who doesn't like that! I never post pictures of myself wearing my items but I will make an exception. As you can see this was part if my maternity collection for both my little one who is learning to walk and his little brother in my belly 😀 So many compliments! Stretch! You will think I sold you the wrong size because it looks so small but as you can see...looks great on this pregnant size 18/20 Mommy. Please see the close up of the bottom of the dress. I am only 5'2" and it is a longer Maxi because it hangs more straight. It's on the inside so you can't see when wearing.
