The Zipper Dress by Poppyseed is absolutely brilliant. Designed to be worn at every stage of your life – before, during and after babies. With dual separating zippers you’re able to create a variety of styles and feel amazing. Which is how mamas should always feel.
And before you ask – no I am not pregnant – I’m wearing the ‘after babies’ style. And let me tell you – I really wish Poppyseed was around when I was spending way too much money on a maternity wardrobe that I only wore for a few months! The idea of having a beautiful piece of clothing that transforms with your body is really smart. And resourceful!
Designed in Tacoma, WA (just South of Seattle), the Zipper Dress has received a ton of press for its unique foundation and philosophy. Clothing should fit regardless – without sacrificing comfort for style. Here’s how it works:
Dual separating zippers sewn onto inverted front pleats allows this dress to change its shape, giving you multiple ways to wear this midi. Zip it open for a swinging silhouette, closed for that classic look or experiment with every variation in between. Whatever way you wear it, darts on the front and back will keep everything sleek and form fitting.
- Made in Los Angeles, California
- 68% Viscose, 27% Nylon, 5% Spandex
*For our expectant shoppers we recommend ordering your pre-pregnancy size as this dress is designed to change with you.
The sizing is actually really gracious – I typically wear a small and was able to wear an extra small in this dress (isn’t that the best?!).
I wear the dress with the zippers all the way closed to create a ‘pencil look’ with a little mermaid flare at the bottom like in the photo below. Or with the zippers open below the waist to create an A-Line (as in the first two photos).
The Zipper Dress easily transitions throughout the seasons – dressed up or down, paired with flats or heels. Since it’s still a bit chilly here in Seattle, I’ve been wearing it with a blush jacket from VICI or for date night I’ll pair it with a LuLaRoe Lindsay Kimono (as seen above).
If you’re one of the first to see this post – head to my Insta Stories where I shared a few more ways to modify the dress. Another thing to note – the material is absolute perfection – thick enough to conceal, shape and smooth, but light enough to keep you cool on warmer days. Like I said – this is the smartest dress you will ever meet.

And lastly, before I share the giveaway – I wanted to give you a background on the name – Poppyseed. Most women find out they’re pregnant at 4 weeks, at which time their baby is only the size of a poppyseed! The designer and her husband called their son Poppyseed for the first few months while she was pregnant. Isn’t that sweet? I thought you’d like that. :)
Okay – so obviously you are completely smitten with the Zipper Dress, right? Poppyseed has graciously offered to give one dress away (valued at $225)…so go ahead and enter via the rafflecopter below!
