A very feminine and flirty dress in a quintessential Summer print that will evolve with you through all stages of motherhood (pregnancy, breastfeeding-friendly and new mum). Made in a beautiful silky-feel fabric, this maternity maxi dress is so light and airy, and is the perfect choice for weddings, parties or summer holidays.

What’s unique about this bandeau-style maxi dress is that it doesn’t make you ‘feel pregnant’ – it’s cleverly designed to grow with you to look just as fabulous at 9-months as it does afterwards. The bodice is shirred (smocked) for structure and support, and then elevated with an oversized frill that gives such a flattering feminine look, which can be adjusted to wear tied at the back for extra support or let loose. 

Modelled on a 39-week bump here, we wanted to design a pregnancy- and breastfeeding-friendly dress that is so easy to wear and ensured you looked and felt amazing all the way through, and then afterwards too for those due Summer babies.

You will never have a ‘nothing fits’ moment with this bump-friendly style, and it covers a multitude of bonus pregnancy-friendly features such as maxi length to hide unshaved legs, no need to worry about right underwear and shirred top means it will never feel restrictive around rib cage / breasts – and what’s better is that it’s not a ‘maternity fit’ so will be in your wardrobe for years.
