Fashionable Pregnancy Clothes & Accessories
How to keep in style throughout your pregnancy with affordable, stylish and comfortable clothes.
Being pregnant does not mean you can't keep up to date with al the latest fashion trends.
The key to looking and feeling sexy and fashionable during your pregnancy is picking the trends that you like and adapting them to suit your new body shape.
Pregnancy or maternity clothes are specially designed to give you extra room in the areas you need it, in the belly and the bust.
Top pregnancy clothes
- A wrap. The flowing shape will flatter your fuller figure, and you can wear it during your pregnancy and after. It adds a modern flair, over a feminine top, or embellished with a glittery pin.
- Baby doll top- empire waist with bust darts. Cut on a bias to allow for growth. with a seam under the breast.
- Button up maternity blouses.
- Baggy tunic tops, if large enough can be worn until the end of your pregnancy.
- Comfortable leggings in a stretchy material.
- A long jersey tunic over a matching long skirt. This is a fine outfit for informal and formal wear.
Tips
- Don't be afraid to show some skin. For those of you who were a fan of the Wonderbra, pregnancy offers the best chance you'll ever have to flaunt cleavage. Show off your sexy new curves with a slightly lower neckline than usual, or a blouse that clings.
- Be colorful. You will feel happier when you are wearing clothes that aren't drab and boring.

Great ways to divert attention from your belly and create multiple outfits from a few simple items.
- A scarf in a solid, bold colour. Tie it around your neck or make a headwrap out of it.
- A few large brooches or pins. Wear it just below either collarbone to deflect attention away from your belly, and give your basic solid tops a different look.
- A string of pearls or a trendy choker. Worn with an open-collared blouse or scoop-neck tunic.
- Decorative or printed nylons and tights. Brighten up your legs to take some attention away from your midsection.
- Lots of funky bracelets.
Tips
- Make sure that the tights and stockings do not cut into the middle of your belly, which may cause discomfort and problems with circulation.
- Vintage stores offer a low-cost alternative to scarves and costume jewelry.
