Re: Non Maternity Dresses? Where to get them?

Destination maternity website has dresses that I am wearing now even though I'm not really showing.
They are adjustable and can be tightened or loosened depending how much of a belly you have.
They look like my regular dresses

But that's more for a shower- not really fancy enough for a wedding...

You really can go anywhere-just look for empire waist/A-line.

Don't go by a pillow! Chat Icon Trust me, at 36 weeks, I can still fit into my non maternity dresses and I am not carrying small by any means-look for jersey material and anything stretchy-trust me, it will work!

I was going to say the same thing! I'm 32 weeks tomorrow and I can prob fit into my dresses that are not satin, form fitting. I think that aline would be the best bet!

I have this dress from my sister's wedding (when I wasn't prego). It rums very small- and the top is really tight. Also, the lining underneath is very fitted-not flowy, so you would have to get a much larger size in order to fit into it.
