Any recommendations for places to buy a decent dress to wear to a wedding at 8 months? Most of the places I've checked out (ON, Gap, Loft) have jersey or cotton - nothing appropriate for an evening wedding. The dresses at motherhood maternity were cheaply made. I'd like to spend less than $100 but I'd go higher for the right dress. Anyone else in my position have any luck???

Have you checke out Asos? Us.asos.com
I actually just ordered a dress there a couple days ago - it arrives tomorrow! Prices are good - free shipping, free returns!
I got one other dress there in the past (pre preg) and it was nice, pretty good quality and great price.

I splurged and got a dress on sale at a pea in the pod. It came to around $125, but I got a few uses out of it and can wear it to work.

@hellobeeboston: Thank you so much for this rec! I have 2 black tie weddings to go to at 36 and 37 weeks pregnant and asos is the only place I've found appropriate looking dresses! Even pea in the pod didn't have anything formal enough. Yay, now I'm excited that I won't look schlumpy at the weddings

Also some bridal stores have formal maternity gowns

@hellobeeboston: thanks! That site is exactly what I was looking for!!!
-
I bet David's Bridal would have something.
-
There are a few sites where you can rent maternity wear, especially formalwear
-
I was also going to suggest Asos. They have great stuff there!

I was going to suggest Asos too. A lot of my maternity wardrobe was from there.

Destination maternity has really nice formal dresses, although some of them were a bit on the short side

hey ladies --- just an update - I got the Asos maternity dress I ordered and it's a little big, like, I definitely should have gotten a size lower.... so just a warning!
pre-preg i was a 6 or 8 --- so I ordered an 8 dress & definitely should have gotten the 6! Oh well - free returns so no big deal!
