I just received this dress in a size S and I love it. Thing is, I'm 4months pregnant yet i think it could work quite well as maternity wear (probably sizing up though as in another month or 2 it might not fit). The ruching effect is comfy and there are no waistbands etc to cut in. Works out much cheaper (sale price) than buying the maternity version from Isabella Oliver. Just wondering if anyone has done the same or if I am missing something.
