Steal her style

Fashion inspiratio­n from celebritie­s

Bigger bump

A coat is this season’s investment piece and during the later stages of your pregnancy, comfort is key. An oversize style as worn by British actress Tamsin Egerton isa great addition to any mum-to-be’s wardrobe. This shape is ideal for tall frames and can be worn after the baby is born. Balance out your silhouette with a pair of skinny jeans and simple ankle boots and try adding a pop of colour with a bright blue crossover bag.

New mum

Dressing for formal events after your pregnancy can be challengin­g. You want to be comfortabl­e, yet still highlight your own personal style. Don’t get bogged down with the formal rules and choose something that you’ll wear time and time again. Look to TV presenter and actress Michelle

Doherty for inspiratio­n. The A-line shape of her dress is soft and flattering while the lace detailing is a stylish alternativ­e to heavy textures like leather or suede.

Early days

When it comes to maternity fashion, tailored and structural shapes often get overlooked for more flowy and oversized silhouette­s. However streamline­d pieces with simple lines and expertly placed detailing can be flattering and comfortabl­e especially during the early stages of your pregnancy. Ivanka Trump, who is expecting her third child next year, followed this rule with a sleek military-inspired jacket. The military trend regularly features on the autumn/winter catwalks and is a worthy investment if you want something that you can wear for many years to come.
