Irrespective of your age, size, and shape, everybody and motherhood soul is serene and unique. With the social barriers comes the challenge of getting dressed up with a cute baby bump!
If you think dressing up in pregnancy is easy, you are wrong. It takes more effort than you think. Even for the women who make it seem effortless, it’s a challenge with each passing day as the body keeps evolving daily.
So if you find yourself having to dress for an Indian wedding and have no clue where to begin, then here are a few inspirations and tricks to show them you still got it. The Loom is here to guide you with a few styles that will be your go-to silhouettes.
KURTA PALAZZO PANTS SET
One of the most adorned and prominent silhouettes for maternity are the kurta palazzo pants set. Choose free-size for these months as your body will be changing quite often. And if it doesn’t suit you, you can buy a fabric piece and stitch it on your own. One thing that you must keep in mind is to avoid fitted suit sets. Opt for straight fit kurta sets.
KAFTANS
What could be better than a kaftan? It is always a win-win and one of the staple pieces for pregnant women in their trimesters. Kaftans are made with 100% cotton; linen is airy, and breezy is a perfect match. Choose minimal prints and floor-length kaftans if you have a party to attend.
ANARKALI SETS
If you have always loved wearing anarkalis, then why not make it a must-have staple for your trimesters? This fit and flare silhouette is all you need to chill and relax these days. The fit till waist will emphasize your beautiful petite physique, while the flare below the waist will emphasize your baby bump. So rather than soaking yourself in the bed, get out and dress in beautiful Anarkali sets. It’s a beautiful substitute if you don’t have a flair for sarees. Instead of churidar, you need to swap it with palazzo pant for the extra comfort you and your baby needs.
KURTI WITH LEHENGA
The only silhouette we can blindly swear on is the one made in heaven. It is the kurti lehenga style. This style is something no pregnant woman can go wrong with. It is one of the oldest pregnancy staples that have been carried out for many generations. Why not adopt it? And when we ask you to adopt them, we do not mean to carry on the typical choli blouse. Instead, replace it with trendy short loose fit Kurtis. And instead of having a lehenga with an elasticated waist, go for a drawstring waist that you can adjust to your comfort.
PRINTS
There is no better way to hide the growing baby bump other than wearing bold, minimal prints in breezy, flowy fabrics. Abstract, floral, pop, and minimal ditsy prints are trending these days. These prints will for sure help you out to hide the baby bump to an extent. Try to infuse these prints with a long outfit, and incorporating it in tops and Kurtis will make you look bulky in an unflattering way.
KURTA WITH SHARARA AND SALWAR
Shararas are trending everywhere these days, and it’s better to have more alternative options. It will keep you in trend. Plus, the more options, the merrier for you and your baby. Kurtis with salwar will give the mother-to-be a sporty playful look. Kurta with sharara is also an excellent pick for wedding ceremonies.
