I have a wedding to attend @ the end of May. I will be 32wks at the time and need to order a dress off the computer as i'm unable to find a decent dress in store. I found this dress: https://www.isabellaoliver.com/maternity-clothes/occasion/wedding/isabella-oliver-maternity-tie-knot-dress/D/30100/P/1:200:5050:2030/I/DR068
Do you think it's appropriate for an evening wedding?? Has anyone ordered a maternity dress from this site before? If so, are their clothes made well? Thanks!
Re: NBR: Evening wedding attire
I think it's appropriate. I have heard good things about this web site. Sorry, no personal experience.

I wouldn't wear a jersey fabric dress to a formal evening wedding, but since you're pregnant you sort of get a hall pass.
However, $179 for a jersey dress is a lot. I already picked up 2 formal dresses on eBay for less than $30 each and they're fabulous and will work for the myriad of summer weddings I have to attend.
I think it is fine for an evening wedding, as the pp said, you get a hall pass because you're pg.
HOWEVER...I would buy this similar dress from Gap for $40, instead of the $179.
I say no to jersey as well.....and DONT buy the gap dress!! I bought it and it looks like a nightgown or something. NOT evening wear. Looks much better in the picture, I returned it.
Also try Japanese Weekend, or Nordstrom.com, they have some great dresses in your price range.
