levaca Women's Maternity Empire Waist Loose Swing Pregnancy Casual Midi Dress

I bought several of these dresses for my tummy tuck recovery. They are soft and comfortable. The high waist was perfect for not only keeping material off of the tender area but for hiding everything. the pockets were perfect for my drain tube & bottle, in 2 ways: I was able to put my drain bottle inside the pockets and flip them out to hold it in place, and I also cut a little slit in one of the insides of the pockets so I could feed the tube through the hole and have the bottle sit in my pocket. I could simply empty the tube right from my pocket. After the tubes were removed I discovered that (for stay at home days) the binder could be placed over the dress for more comfort on my sensitive skin. Besides all that, they are very pretty dresses and I get compliments on them every time I go to my follow up appointments. It was nice to not look a mess and they were comfortable enough for all the naps I took. They are holding up through several of washes and drying so far. I am extremely happy with this purchase :)

PERFECTION! I love this dress! Everything about it! Not only is it SO soft, a beautiful color, but IT HAS POCKETS! I’m larger chested, and it covers and flatters that. It hits just below the knee cap in the front and longer in the back. I got “Deep Blue” but it’s more of a deep blue/violet, but it’s beautiful! I can’t wait to have a reason to wear it! I’ve been looking for an amazing, flowy, comfortable dress for years, finally found it! I am long waisted, short legged, with the belly of a mother of 2 (that does NOT work out & loves food) and I feel so pretty in this dress.

I don't care that this dress fits a little bit weird! I LOVE IT!! There. I said it. Now I'll list what I love & what I hate about it. ***LOVE*** SUPER SOFT MATERIAL SUPER COMFORTABLE TO WEAR PERFECT LENGTH FOR A SHORT GIRL (I'm 5' 0" / 160-ish lbs) LOVE HOW IT FLOWS WHEN I'M WALKING ~ BUT NEVER BLOWS "AWAY" I LOVE THE GREY COLOR. IT'S NOT "HEATHER" OR "CHARCOAL". SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN. ***HATE*** IT FITS REALLY WEIRD ACROSS THE CHEST. THE SEAM HITS ME RIGHT AT OR JUST BELOW THE NIPPLE LINE. I FIND MYSELF CONSTANTLY PULLING IT DOWN, SO IT FITS LIKE THE PHOTO********this is pretty much a waste of time, here's why: THE HEM ON THE SLEEVES IS WAAAYYY TOO TIGHT!! ****PLUS**** THEY'RE CAPPED SLEEVES ~ NOT THE LOOSE, SHORT SLEEVES IN THE PHOTO!! THESE TIGHT SLEEVES MAKE THE ENTIRE BODICE FIT TIGHTLY ACROSS THE CHEST. THE SLEEVES DO STRETCH A LITTLE, AFTER WEARING & PULLING AT THEM. **** I DO HAVE SOME MEAT ON MY BONES & WOULD RATHER NOT EMPHASIZE THE FACT BY SQUEEZING THE "HANGY DOWNY" FLAB ON MY UPPER ARMS. SINCE THE CHEST IS SO TIGHT ACROSS, IT CHANGES THE FIT OF THIS DRESS COMPLETELY. IT'S NOT AT ALL FLATTERING, OR SLIMMING. IN FACT, IT'S QUITE THE OPPOSITE! I'VE GOT SOME FAIRLY LARGE "GIRLS" AND IT LOOKS MORE LIKE A PITCHED TENT THAN THE FLATTERING, FLOWING DRESS ON THIS MODEL. (THE ENTIRE DRESS JUST HANGS. THAT'S ALL). THAT'S WHAT I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS DRESS. IT DOES FIT PRETTY WELL EVERYWHERE ELSE, IF I HADN'T WORN IT, I WOULD'VE SWAPPED IT FOR AN XL TO SEE IF THE BODICE FIT ANY BETTER. I SUGGEST TRYING IT ON RIGHT AWAY & GOING WITH YOUR FIRST INSTINCT ON HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT. I'M ORDERING IT RIGHT NOW SO I'LL HAVE 2 OF THESE DRESSES (IF THE XL WORKS OUT). OVERALL, I'M HAPPY WITH THIS DRESS.

I was looking for a dress that I can wear out and about on a warm spring or summer day as well as to work. This dress was great for that! I am 5'5 and 130lbs and the small fit great, not too tight at all with plenty of room to move. I got the gray color and it is not see-through at all, even out on a bright sunny day. It just about covers my knees in the front and it is longer in the back (falls near the middle of my calves) and a little shorter on the sides, so the dress moves nicely and is conservative enough to wear to work. I would not recommend this if you are much shorter than me unless you want the back down to your ankles. I have two sisters who each tried this on and did not like the fit on their body types (one is nearly a head shorter than me and is fairly petite and this was too long on her, and the other sister is almost my height but is curvier and it looked like a maternity dress on her). Would not recommend if you have a larger chest, as the seam may fall awkwardly under your chest. It may be helpful if you already have worn dresses or shirts with a similar design or if you like dresses similar to baby-doll style dresses and know that you like this look on your body type. The pockets are also a nice addition, although I will probably not use them much, as putting something heavy or bulky in them may make the dress look weighed down or lopsided, as the material is light and flowy. I like it enough that I am considering buying a second one in a different color.
