In my opinion, the best way to build a maternity wardrobe is to add pieces that you can continue to wear long after you’ve brought home your chubby bundle of joy. Enter the bump friendly dress…
And anyway, who doesn’t feel lovely in a dress, even when their waist is rapidly expanding.
Today, I’m rounding up a bunch of beautiful bump friendly dresses (say that five times fast), all of them capsule worthy, and guaranteed to keep you feeling chic, no matter how much your ankles have swollen.
white shirt dress. black strap dress. pink dress. striped tank dress. gingham smocked dress. knee length black dress. striped t-shirt dress. floral smocked dress. black maxi dress. white strap dress. black babydoll dress. blue striped dress. brown eyelet dress. white maxi dress.
Babydoll silhouettes, empire waists, anything with smocking and of course a great t-shirt dress. All of these are going to be your friend, and keep you feeling cute and put together while your body is changing. I personally find midi and maxi dresses easiest for styling around a bump, but there are some cute options in the knee length range as well.
One thing I love about a dress is that it’s an instant outfit. You don’t have to layer or worry about too much else. But that doesn’t mean you don’t get to have fun with it either. I love finding great bags, hats, and hair accessories to mix it up with my favorite capsule dresses.
