Shower dress vent

My shower is April 20th and I started looking for a shower dress. I don't want to buy anything JUST yet in fear that it won't fit by the time the shower happens. I have been looking everywhere and I can't seem to find what I want. I looked on motherhood, pea in a pod, old navy, asos, pink blush, topshop, zulily, gilt, rosie pope, Macys, Nordstroms, etc. The only things I can find that I like are Rosie Pope or Isabella Oliver and I can't seem to spend that much money on a baby shower dress. I'm looking for a cute maxi dress, with a little sleeve (cap or short...to hide my fat arms), umpire waist, not fitted...it's impossible!!!! I'm starting to get really annoyed!

I did find some on etsy that I actually liked but I'm a little scared to shop on etsy for a shower dress. Would you? Do you think I need to change up what I am looking for? I DEF don't want to do pants and no leggings. Thought a maxi dress would help with the fact that I can't cross my legs anymore comfortably and I don't want to give a show while opening presents.

I saw really cute maxi dresses on the old navy website .. it doesnt have cap sleeve or long sleeve but you can put a nice cardigan over it:)

Jessica Simpson also had really cute one's at the destination maternity store in Garden City.. my friend bought hers there and she looooved it! she wore a cardigan and flip flops with it.. Good luck! Chat Icon

Re: Shower dress vent

My shower is early April....I just today ended my loooong search and found the cutest polka dot maxi dress at SEARS (black and white)..its sleeveless so I need a sweater but it def makes the bump look cute while looking correct everywhere else..and the bonus is that it is a petite length so I do not have to drag the floor!!..

I would try Sears, JCP, etc...I find that most maxi dresses have extra room and could be used for this

Thanks girls! I looked at all the places mentioned above and couldn't find anything. I actually have the green dress from Target but it doesn't work for a shower dress. I doesn't fit the way I would want it for a shower dress.

I will look at Sears and Penny's thank you! Those I haven't gone to the store to look at them.

I have a wedding to go to. I found a nice dress on the loft. Best part is it was 40% off.

I looked on the loft...they have some nice shorter dresses that I might go back to if I can't find a maxi dress.

Does anyone know if the Penny's in Roosevelt Field carries maternity dress?
