I was able to wear this comfortably throughout my pregnancy, from the late stages to after delivery, without worrying about my belly! ^_^ I think it would also be good as a maternity dress. Sleeveless black and white cut-and-sew dress with a stylish side slit design. - Colors: Black / White - Design: Sleeveless, side slit - Material: Soft fabric - Style: Cut-and-sew There are no noticeable scratches or stains. It was used for one season in the summer, so there is some slight wear and tear. Please ask any questions you may have before purchasing, as it is not new☆ Thank you for looking.
