Maternity Clothing: The Ultimate Guide
All About Maternity Clothing
When it comes to building your maternity wardrobe, you want to give yourself lots of options, but you don't want to go overboard. Ideally, you'll want comfortable pieces you can mix and match and that you can also imagine wearing post pregnancy. Our maternity collection is designed for mixing and matching which will allow you to get maximum usage out of your garments. Many of our pieces are also breastfeeding-friendly, while all of our ethically made pieces can be worn throughout your pregnancy and beyond!
Our bamboo maternity pants, shorts, skirts and leggings all have stretchy, comfortable waistbands and our maternity tops have a longer length or side ruching to nurture your growing baby bump. Our maternity dresses either have a relaxed fit or side ruching, all in our super soft bamboo fabric. All styles include subtle features that'll keep you cool, comfortable and stylish. If you prefer extra coverage or would rather a more oversized fit, we have alternatives!
If you're just starting your maternity capsule wardrobe and in need of a little inspiration, keep reading as we take you through our best-selling maternity styles that you can dress up, down and wear throughout every season. With alternatives to each option, you'll create your capsule maternity wardrobe in just one shop!
Maternity Dresses
Maternity Dresses
Many sources will tell you to opt for a loose-fitting dress to allow for room and extra comfort. While this is true, you can still show off your figure and wear figure hugging pieces. Our bamboo clothing is super stretchy, lightweight, moisture-wicking, and breathable so you won't be feeling hot and uncomfortable in whatever you choose. Plus, our super stretchy fabric means you can choose the size you normally wear and still opt for the piece post pregnancy!
Make sure to choose a piece you'll wear more than five times. With lots of options available in dresses, you can attend any occasion or go anywhere in style during your pregnancy. We offer a collection of pregnancy dresses to select for weddings, casual outings, parties, beaches or formal events. If you want a more casual appeal, you can go with a tank dress or t-shirt dress. Whereas if you're heading to an event or to the office, our wrap-around, ruched or A-line dresses will have you sorted.

Maternity Tops
Opt for stretchy tops that you can keep on high rotation. Bamboo tops are perfect to add to your range of maternity wear, as the material stretches to accommodate your growing baby bump. Our ruched styles in particular, are designed to stretch and move with your growing bump, with the help of the gathering on the sides of the waist. Whether you're wanting a layering piece or to wear on its own, our ruched tee's come in a tank, short sleeve and long-sleeved style, all available in various colours!
Nursing tops are also an essential in a maternity wardrobe and the best thing about our nursing friendly tops is that they can be worn after your pregnancy too. Our best selling 3/4 Sleeve Grace Top has a faux layer underneath that looks like a cami so you can breastfeed with ease. Alternatively, if you prefer a longer sleeve, the Cross Front Top and Long Sleeve Cowl Neck can easily be slipped down to breast-feed.
Here are a few options can match back with jeans and shorts or maxi's and work pants.

Maternity Pants
Comfort is key when it comes to pregnancy, so it's important to opt for a bit of extra stretch. Our bamboo clothing has up to 7% spandex; with the blend of the bamboo and spandex, the fabric will sit comfortably and mould to the shape of your figure. Our maternity friendly pants have either a wide fabric, no-fuss waistband or super soft elasticated waist that can be worn above or below your bump.
Whether you prefer a straight or fitted leg pant, you'll want to spend all your time in these pant options, even when you're not pregnant. They're the perfect everyday choice for lounging, keeping active or dressing up for work.

Maternity Skirts
As a rule of thumb, steer away from maternity skirts that are tight and thick in material, and always opt for fabrics that feel comfortable. Your body will change rapidly during your pregnancy, and you'll need skirts that are comfortable, easy to wear, and not to hard too slip on and off. Just like our maternity pants, our skirts feature either a wide, fabric waistband or super soft elastic waist. Our ruched skirts in particular, allow you to adjust the length of the skirt to sit either above or just on the knee.
