The It-Girl Mom Guide to Dressing a Bump

Pregnancy, but make it fashion.

Dressing the bump isn’t about giving up your personal style—it’s about making it work for you in a way that feels effortless. Whether you’re all about structured silhouettes, cozy layers, or understated minimalism, maternity wear shouldn’t be something you “tolerate” for nine months. The key? Investing in a few versatile pieces, embracing fabrics that move with you, and styling with intention.

Here’s how to keep the It-Girl energy going through every trimester.

1. Start with a Strong Foundation

A good outfit starts with the right base. During pregnancy, that means breathable fabrics, stretchy yet structured silhouettes, and pieces that work beyond just a few months.

- The bump-hugging dress – A sleek knit or jersey dress that flatters without restricting. Discover our dresses.
- The elevated leggings – Ribbed or seamless options that look polished but feel like loungewear.
- The oversized button-down – Wear it open, half-tucked, or layered—it’s a wardrobe staple for a reason.

2. Prioritize Versatility Over Trends

You don’t need an entirely new wardrobe—just a few essentials that do the most. Look for adjustable and multi-way pieces that evolve with you.

- A dress that can be worn cowl neck, off-one-shoulder, or off-both for different occasions.
- A structured blazer that instantly elevates leggings and a tank.
- A knit co-ord that works pre, during, and post-pregnancy.

3. Keep It Elevated, Keep It Comfortable

The best outfits balance structure with softness.

- Swap stiff denim for stretch-friendly tailoring. A wide-leg trouser with an elastic waistband = polished but effortless.
- Layer strategically. A trench coat or longline cardigan instantly refines any look.
- Play with proportions. If it’s fitted on the bottom, keep it oversized on top (and vice versa).

4. Shoes Matter More Than Ever

Comfort is non-negotiable, but that doesn’t mean sacrificing style.

- Loafers or sleek ballet flats – Polished, practical, and easy to slip on.
- Knee-high boots – A statement piece that instantly refines a simple look.
- Minimalist sneakers – Works with everything from dresses to trousers.

5. Finish with Accessories That Elevate

The easiest way to pull an outfit together? Intentional details.

- A structured tote that holds everything without looking bulky.
- Chic sunglasses that make any errand-run feel styled.
- Gold jewelry—simple hoops, a chain necklace, effortless stacking rings.

It-Girl Energy, Bump & Beyond

Pregnancy style should feel like you. Stick to what you love, make comfort a priority, and invest in a few key pieces that work with—not against—your growing bump.

Because style doesn’t pause for pregnancy.
