Comfy, cute and has pockets!

With summer approaching, I wanted to find a dress that I could nurse in. I looked at several options on Revain and via maternity/nursing clothing shops. This one had good reviews and was a good price so I decided to take a chance. So glad I did! The material is so comfortable (soft and stretchy). The nursing flap is easy to access. It's also really cute - my husband and mother-in-law both immediately commented on how nice it looked and didn't even know it was a nursing dress. Also doesn't…

Pros
  • Washing Care:Machine Wash Cold/Tumble Dry with Low Heat/Do Not Bleach/Iron on Low Heat
Cons
  • The design of the dresses is not very stylish

Perfect for Maternity and Nursing

I am currently 6 months pregnant with my second child after nursing my first for 18 months, so I’m no stranger to nursing dresses. This one is pretty much perfect. It’s light and breezy but not see through. It’s long enough that I can bend down to reach my child without flashing my butt. The nursing panel is soft and stretchy. My only complaint is that I noticed a few loose threads at the seams, but those were easily trimmed. I bought this dress in green, but plan to buy a few more colors in…

Pros
  • Maternity
Cons
  • The dresses may require special washing instructions

Favorite Maternity Dress!

This is my favorite maternity dress, I have it in three colors! I have worn it all through my second and third trimester of pregnancy and am excited to continue wearing it post partum for nursing. It is soft and stretchy and holds up well in the wash.I was a size 16 pre-pregnancy, I'm 5'1, and the XL fits perfectly, even at 33 weeks pregnant. This picture was during my second trimester of pregnancy. I've worn this dress for formal occasions and casual get together.

Pros
  • Perfect nursing dress, fits well and is cute. 5 ft 8 in, 38D, size large fit well.
Cons
  • The sleeves on the dresses are too short

Postpartum uniform - my new review

This would be great for maternity but I’m getting the most use postpartum. I bought a medium and am about 150 lbs. I’m 5’ 3” and it’s a little below my knees. I had my baby this week and it is my go to outfit when not in a gown. I had a c section so can’t really do pants right now. This is loose, very soft and comfortable everywhere. Pre milk arrival, the internal boob pieces were too loose (small boobs) but now it’s great since they’ve grown. This works amazing for having the space to easily…

Pros
  • Machine Wash
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who are allergic to certain materials

Not especially flattering postpartum

I'm a little disappointed with this dress. I like how soft and lightweight it is, and the fabric colors and pattern are very pretty. But I feel like it just isn't that flattering on my postpartum body, primarily because it has an elastic under the bust which accentuates my stomach pooch. I'm not that far from my pre-pregnancy weight, but I'm dealing with a bad case of diastasis recti, so the tummy bump isn't going to be a quick fix. I'm worried that by the time I feel comfortable in the dress…

Pros
  • Really good....easy to feed ...nice color.
Cons
  • The dresses are not versatile and can only be worn for nursing

Very cute and comfy casual dress

This dress is very cute and comfortable! It's a soft, flowy rayon knit with a good amount of bouncy stretch. I got it in dark green and the gray skirt/white striped top versions. It has pockets too!I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant, 5'5", and 150 pounds (about 130 pre-pregnancy). There's tons of room for my baby bump to grow, and I think it'll look good as a nursing dress when I slim down after having the baby too. I'm probably going to live in these dresses because they're that comfy and I can't

Pros
  • Great gift for new moms,this chic nursing dress looks equally good with sandals in the sun or with tights and boots when the weather turns cooler.Dress it up or down, this dress is a real wardrobe winner!.
Cons
  • The dresses do not offer much support for the chest area

Comfy and Easy good for me

I purchased this dress 1 month postpartum to wear in family photos, and it turned out decently. I have also traveled all day in this dress and stayed cool and comfortable. Material has some stretch to it, doesn't wrinkle, and the dress hits a little above the knee.Pros:*VERY comfortable. Every time I wear it, I don't want to take it off.*Nursing features is easy to use and keeps you covered. This one is the covered V style.*it has pockets.Cons:*The cut of the dress did drape over my tummy a…

Pros
  • Love the dress!
Cons
  • The dresses may fade quickly after washing

Cute but poor quality sewing

I really love the look and fit of this dress however mine has a pretty significant flaw in the seam. On one of the chest pieces that pulls down for nursing access, the seam near the arm pit has a huge pinch in it. It looks like it was folded while it was being sewn and now there is a large pocket that shouldn’t be there. The dress is still wearable but it doesn’t lay completely flat. I am disappointed it was sold with such a major flaw in the construction of the dress.

Pros
  • 93.1% Modal Rayon, 6.9% Spandex
Cons
  • The dresses may not retain their shape after washing

Love these dresses!

This is the third one of these dresses I’ve bought now (I also have the black and green floral one, and the army green one), because they are AMAZING! 😄 So comfortable and easy to nurse in! They must have improved this striped one, because now the inner panel is gray and not striped, so see-through stripes are no longer a problem! My husband did say he could see the color of my bra a little, so I’ll wear a nude colored one just in case. Thankful for these!

Pros
  • Super comfy and fits great! Love that it has pockets. Really convenient for nursing. 10/10 🤩
Cons
  • The material used to make the dresses wrinkles easily

Very soft and comfy

I bought a medium and ended up trading it in for a small. I thought I'd need a bigger size because I was a 32D before pregnancy and now I've grown a cup size or two, but ended up having plenty of space in the small. The material has a lot of stretch and is very comfy. With the white top and thin lines you can sort of see the other layers underneath through the white part. But that doesn't bother me much, a solid color top may not show as much. Plenty of room to grow and more comfy than pajamas!

Pros
  • I ordered size small and fitted well.
Cons
  • The dresses may not fit well on all body types

Comfy but color not as shown

Very comfortable dress. I'm 37 weeks pregnant and fits over my belly! So it is definitely flowy. Only complaint I have is the color is not the same as shown in the pic. It is navy blue and white stripe top and light gray bottom. But I still like and will wear.

Pros
  • Casual short sleeve nursing dress with TWO SIDE POCKETS is super easy to nurse in,lifts up to reveal simple and discreet access for breastfeeding after baby is born.
Cons
  • The dresses are only available in a limited range of patterns

Awesome Nursing Dress

Absolutely love this dress. It’s very well made. The quality was much better than I expected. I love that it has pockets and that it doesn’t scream "nursing friendly!” Sometimes breastfeeding clothes can be so obvious so I love that this just looks like just a comfy dress. My only complaint is the sleeves. They do not fit like what is pictured (more fitted). I’m a little insecure about my arms so I was looking forward to the looser fit but it is still comfortable and flattering. I will be…

Pros
  • Women
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for cold weather

5' 6 " and medium hangs past my knees

I have a 7 month old and only owned one other nursing dress prior to this. I wear dresses weekly to church so it was nice to get something new to change up my attire. I love how long the dress hangs- past my knees. I don't love that the blue stripes and the blue skirt are different shades of blue. That's why I rated it 4 stars

Pros
  • Unlike the tees, this dress kept up.
Cons
  • The dresses are not suitable for women who are shorter or taller than average

I would wear this everyday!

Comfortable to wear. It’s soft and comfy but stylish. I can nurse so discreetly I could go without a cover and people would have a difficult time realizing I’m nursing. And it has pockets! I don’t use them for much but I love having them.Oh and it looks good while feeling modest.

Pros
  • Neutral colors match any outfit
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who want something that is easily accessible

Cute but too Thin: my feedback

I didn't think it was very flattering on my pregnant body. The material was quite thin so I decided to return it.My boys all liked it and wanted me to keep it! But I wasn't excited to wear it so I decided to return it.I will possibly buy in a darker color.

Pros
  • Nursing
Cons
  • The dresses may not be easy to care for

Order size down in my review

The dress is comfy and soft. The quality is pretty good but the sizes run a bit large. I usually wear medium so I ordered the medium as it suggested but it runs big. Small would’ve fit me better. Overall, is good

Pros
  • Suitable for all seasons
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who are looking for a versatile piece

Perfect nursing dress!

I’m currently 3 weeks postpartum. I really wanted to find a nursing dress that didn’t cost a ton of money and was casual enough to wear tennis shoes or be able to dress up with cute shoes and some jewelry AND that I could nurse my baby in.this dress has it all!The material is Rayon and Spandex Sonora super stretchy and comfortable. What I love most about it, is how flattering it is on. I’m 5’3” 196lbs, my bust is 38”, waist 33” and hips 44”. I ordered the large afraid it would fit too tightly…

Pros
  • Comfortable enough to wear all day
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who are looking for something that is practical

Nice Dress! best in my review

My sister really liked this dress. Easy for nursing and dressing up or down for an occasion or errand run. Only complaint, and a minimal one at that, is that the material is slightly lightweight; if it were light in color you may need a slip underneath.

Pros
  • Can be dressed up or down with the right accessories
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who are looking for something that can be dressed up or down

Perfect dress for nursing/pumping moms

I am a working mom who nurses before work and pumps several times at the office. This dress is perfect for both. So comfortable, can be dressed up or down and easy/comfy to nurse or pump in. I sized up to a large but could have done a medium (my typical size). Very forgiving cut and soft fabric. Absolutely recommend to all working moms.

Pros
  • Can be worn during babywearing
Cons
  • The dresses may not be suitable for women who want something that has a more modern design

Great Nursing Dress

I have searched all over for a good nursing dress and this is the best that I have found, by far. The material is soft and very stretchy, the openings are actually large enough for nursing or pumping and the dress itself is very flattering and cute. I ordered the navy striped dress but I’ll definitely be getting a few more. My only wish would be that it was a little bit shorter in length but honestly, that doesn’t even matter.

Pros
  • Can be dressed up or down for various events
Cons
  • The material used to make the dresses may not be suitable for all climates
