For a few years, I've been wearing maxi dresses (over a shell) instead of Shabbos robes. I feel much more "dressed" in them because they really are dresses. And they're much cheaper than Shabbos robes in a frum store, so I have a few for each season.

I've been looking for one with an empire waist or just very loose or gathered at a neckline, that I can use as a maternity Shabbos robe. Has anyone seen anything like this? I'm a size 6, so I usually can buy a loose fitting shirt in a size 10 or so and it will work as maternity.

TIA!

Thanks, that is pretty! Do you think the waistline is high enough to work as a maternity dress?

Motherhood Maternity has a few on sale now: I also see them on zulily (both regular and maternity) pretty often.

I'm with you, I don't know if I'll ever bother with a "real" robe again!

I saw Target had a few weeks ago long black maxi dresses in the maternity section for pretty cheap, so you may want to check there.

I don't quite know. I tried it on in marshalls and it was basically empire waisted but then again, it was a petite. if it falls too low and you need to shorten it (because it's very long) you can lift it from the shoulders.
