I love the look of them on other people, not so great on me....if I had boobs it would really help!!! Although I did find one that suits me and I bought it to go to DH work functions, so I think it looks quite dressy ( depends on fabric and print, I think) best thing is it looks great over the bump, I have to say it is a little long I am 5'7 and it touches the ground, so yes not for the height challenged, great if you are tall.
