I was completely thrilled when my gown arrived. It was so soft and it fit perfectly and was, dare I say CUTE!!! (use their website for sizing, as it goes off of your empire waist measurement. I got the medium.) I immediately washed it with some of the new baby items in the fancy baby laundry soap and dried it in the dryer just a bit to damp then hung for the rest...it already has a hole in it. I was going to order another to have two different ones, just to have something nice for after delivery as well (or if there was a really long delivery or whatever...just because..it was super soft and flattering..but after it so easily got a hole in it, I changed my mind. So sad, because it actually was very, very cute. I will still wear it, but won't spend that much on another one.
