I can't for the life of me find any cute dresses for my shower. I've looked online all over the place, and in stores. Everything is so frumpy! Does anyone have ANY links to some cute maternity dress places? I'm about to buy something big and get it tailored.
My favorite maternity dresses were not maternity. Just flowy 'regular' dresses... Although, paradoxically, my NEW favorite NON-PG dresses are two Liz Lange maxi dresses. The only one still listed online is below, but it's out of stock:
I have had better luck with non maternity dresses. I have found most maternitry dresses are too frumpy or not my style. Something with an empire waist works great. I actually found mine at TJ Max in the juniors department. Just buy a larger size.
I actually am in the same boat as you - BUT I was rather surprised to see that I was successful at the Motherhood Maternity store - if there is one near you - I would recommend you go and try on the dresses vs ordering online - Hope that helps!
My two favorite maternity dresses are both maxi dresses. One is from Old Navy and one is from Motherhood Maternity. I wore the Old Navy one for my first baby shower and everyone loved it (I loved it cuz it's so comfy!). Sorry, I couldn't find a picture of it online that I can link to this post. The dress from Motherhood is purple and flowy w/ a big pink lily on the hip....very pretty. It's the one I'm wearing in my avatar
PS- Nordstrom's return policy is awesome, you can return anything, any time, so you could order a couple dresses and then just return the ones you don't want for the shower!
Re: Need help finding dress for shower
That's one place I haven't looked yet but I hate digging through their racks
Not sure how dressy your shower will be, but I always had good luck with gap maternity. Like one of these for example:
