With the ‘slow fashion’ movement in full swing (which we adore, by the way), we try to only purchase pieces that we can see ourselves holding on to for a long, long time. Forever, in fact.
With this in mind, when it comes to maternity shopping, we find ourselves searching for clothing (mainly dresses – because sans waistband is always the way forward) that will not only allow room for extra growing (for the next nine months), but also make feeding your sweet babe as easy and smooth as possible. All of this as well as keeping in mind the years ahead when these babies have turned to independent little kids and you’d like to think you’ll still be wearing said purchase…
Yes, you can pass on your ‘maternity dresses’ to expecting friends and family, but what about if you could continue your journey together and love, cherish and wear for the foreseeable future (with the only risk being grubby little hands!) Keep reading for a few frocks that you’ll love pre & post baby and beyond:
