    "I ordered this dress for maternity pictures. I liked that it’s a wrap dress, so I’ll be able to wear it after pregnancy and during nursing as well. It is more like a midi-length dress on me because I’m tall but I couldn’t be more pleased with the color, texture, and fit of the dress! It’s so beautiful and honestly I’m shocked at how quality the material is. It doesn’t feel thin or cheap and the color is such a rich and vibrant green. I’m obsessed with it!" —J Heck

I do have to wear a bra with it because one boob is noticeably bigger than the other, and the back is wide enough to cover the strap with a cute little cut out underneath.
