For far too long, maternity clothing was rather
drab. Many of the dresses fit like a tent, offering a minimum of
style. The only other options were oversized tops and nerdy-looking
pants with expandable waists. For women who had been high-fashion
in their pre-pregnancy years, maternity clothes were a profound
disappointment.
However, slowly and quietly, a revolution has been
taking place in maternity wear. Today's styles are eye-catching,
feminine, and even sexy. For instance, www.evalillian.com offers
maternity clothing that is trendy, yet highly affordable. The collection
includes mix and match separates, stylish dresses, and even formal
wear.
If you're looking for a maternity dress for a wedding or a baby shower,
for instance, Eva Lillian can provide you with just what you need to make
the ultimate sexy pregnancy fashion statement.
Sexy Formal Maternity Clothing
For a number of years, formal maternity clothing
did not really exist. If you wanted to go to a fancy event while you
were pregnant, you simply had to wear whatever maternity dress you
found on the rack-usually, something in demure pink. But now, manufacturers
are offering maternity dresses with a formal flair.
For instance, the Sophia maternity dress by designer Nicole Michelle
is a case in point. This dress is billed as being classic and sophisticated-but
with a definite edge. The black stretch fabric makes this dress appear
luxurious and form-fitting. It is, in fact, a new take on the popular
sexy "little black dress."
The dress features an elegant off-the-shoulder style
with ¾ sleeves. As a result, it is appropriate for an autumn wedding,
a holiday party, or a romantic evening out with the dad-to-be. The dress
comes in extra small, small, medium, large, extra large, and 2XL.
The Bellysock or Maternity Belly Band
One new development in maternity clothing is an item that can allow
you to extend your pre-pregnancy wardrobe. It's called the BellySock,
and it can be used to complement non-maternity clothing. Also known
as a maternity band or belly band, this item can be worn underneath
non-maternity tops in order to provide extra support and coverage.
You can wear maternity belly bandsBellySock underneath or over your
shirt, folded over or high on your waist, depending on your own personal
style. Its maker says the BellySock could quickly become the most
versatile item in your wardrobe.
These "bella bands" can also be worn
postpartum and while you're nursing as an alternative to a draped blanket.
The garment comes in a variety of colors, including coral, cotton candy
pink, black with pink dots, garden, lilac, black, and white. It also comes
in a full range of sizes, including small, medium, large, extra large,
2X and 3X.
Keeping Your Style - As Your Belly Grows
Fortunately, you no longer have to abandon style when
you begin to show. Thanks to a number of trailblazing designers, maternity
lines now offer a number of cool clothes, appropriate for a variety of
social occasions.
For your own health and well-being, it is important for you to feel good
about how you look during your pregnancy. Thankfully, with so many options
now available, you can maintain your signature style up to your delivery
date.
