During pregnancy a woman becomes a woman with a capital letter. Waiting for a baby, big belly, new unusual feelings do not prevent women from thinking about themselves, how to remain attractive and modern. Pregnancy dictates its own laws, which must be followed. But, despite some limitations, a woman can create a convenient and stylish “pregnant” wardrobe following maternity fashion rules.

Naturally, a complete overhaul of your wardrobe is unrealistic and impractical. But a woman simply cannot limit herself with a couple of things, although it is clear that too much money for clothes you will wear for a few months is rather a great luxury.

The first two trimesters of pregnancy require virtually no special clothes for pregnant women. However, in this period it is possible to do with clothes of bigger sizes. In the third trimester belly will be rounded, so anything you wear will look ridiculous at you.

So, what should be in your maternity fashion wardrobe?

Leggings, pants. Leggings - very comfortable and practical clothes for pregnant women. There are many varieties of leggings - light cotton, wool winter … it is a mistake to assume that leggings are mainly home clothes. You will have to buy a special model of pants. Do not forget that suits for pregnant women are most comfortable.

Knitwear is probably the most popular material for pregnant women. If you are not ashamed of your big belly, become invariably clothed in a tight-knit dress. Elegantly. Short loose dresses look cool, especially if your feet maintained their slim look during pregnancy.

As for skirts, you can choose a model that can be worn after pregnancy. Or take, for example, a skirt on an elastic band! However, during recent months you will still need a skirt for pregnant women.

Blouses, jackets, sweaters. Freedom and freedom once again. Although it is not necessary to put on emptied things - stay elegant.

How to build your maternity fashion wardrobe, without spending a lot of money at the same time.

- You will need your husband’s T-shirts and shirts you’ll wear with leggings and overalls.

- Ask for clothing from your friends that already gave birth. Certainly, they have some clothes for pregnant women.

- Do not forget about accessories. A small wardrobe can be diversified with jewelry, handkerchief, fashionable handbag.

Requirements for maternity fashion clothing.

- Fabrics should be mostly natural, preferably of light colors - this will allow your body breathing.

- Clothes should not hamper your movements and pressure on the stomach. The same can be said about tights, socks - do not provoke stagnation in legs.

- Demi-season and winter clothing should be warm, but light. You should feel comfortable and cozy.

- Pay attention to your shoes - you should not buy shoes with high heels and slippery soles. Shoes should be breathable, stable and comfortable.

A few more words about shoes … High heel is acceptable in the first half of pregnancy, but still try to abandon such footwear from the outset.

Business wardrobe for expectant mother.

Working pregnant women are forced to approach formation of their maternity fashion wardrobe with special care.

Ideal variant for work - skirts and pants, plus loose T-shirts and blouses. Waistcoat is a good complement to business style. Two or three jackets will allow you varying wardrobe significantly.

When choosing a business dress, stop your choice on classic cover, preferably of dark colors. You can choose short dresses of trapezoidal shape. Do not forget about your feet, because many pregnant women have red flasks (which can be masked with dark tights), edema, increased cellulite.

Again, do not forget about accessories, they will greatly enrich your wardrobe.

Maternity fashion. Holiday clothes.

Pregnancy is not a reason to give up holidays. So, what can we advised as a wedding garment for a pregnant woman? There is a set of solutions. Same short trapezoid dresses look cool. They visually conceal outlines of the stomach and emphasize your femininity. As an evening costume, you can use a long skirt with a slit and a fancy shirt. Generally, evening wear for pregnant women does not differ with complex cut. Unusual fabric, decoration or fashion accessories may become a highlight.

During my pregnancy, I was able to do with two evening gowns. The first - a cocktail dress, consisting of two parts - a short skirt plus a knitted outer garment with shoulder straps. Second - China silk loose dress with a simple cut, with a floral design in pastel colors. The fact is that the dress is double, that is, it consists of two identical dresses of different lengths, that are put on one over another.

I remember an advice (even prescription) I read in one of fashion magazines for pregnant women - “Expectant mothers are strictly forbidden to wear boring and faceless clothing” One can only agree.
