Baby Bump Guide
Guide to maternity clothing
Pregnancy is a time when the body changes, sometimes quickly, and when comfort becomes even more important when choosing clothes.
At Hello Moon, we do not offer maternity clothing or a dedicated pregnancy collection. However, some pieces from our collections may be more comfortable to wear depending on their cut, fabric, and level of comfort.
This page is simply intended to guide you toward the clothes most likely to accompany you comfortably in your daily life, according to how you feel.
Clothing often appreciated during pregnancy
While they are not specifically maternity clothes, some cuts are generally more comfortable, according to feedback from our customers.
Our tips for choosing your clothes wisely
To make choosing easier:
✔ opt for flowing or stretchy cuts
✔ check the measurements listed on each product page
✔ take the material into account
✔ above all, listen to your own sense of comfort
Two women may wear the same piece differently depending on how it feels to them.
Flowy and empire-waist dresses
Dresses are often a popular choice thanks to their natural comfort.
✔ flowy cuts
✔ no pressure around the stomach
✔ a light, comfortable drape
Elastic-waist skirts
Skirts with an elasticated waistband or soft belts provide:
✔ a more flexible fit
✔ comfort as your body changes
✔ great everyday ease
Soft or elastic-waist trousers
Some trousers may be better suited depending on their design:
✔ elasticated waist
✔ stretch fabrics
✔ fluid cuts (palazzo, wide leg)
They offer more comfort than rigid or non-stretch jeans.
Fluid co-ord sets
Sets made from soft fabrics are often appreciated for their simplicity:
✔ an easy-to-wear coordinated look
✔ overall comfort
✔ no tightness around the waist
Oversized shirts and flowy blouses
Loose-fitting tops can be a comfortable alternative:
✔ no pressure around the stomach
✔ freedom of movement
✔ the option to adjust the fit according to your style
Stretch knitwear
Knitted sweaters and cardigans containing elastane or featuring a flexible construction can adapt more easily as your body changes.
Generally more comfortable fabrics
Some fabrics are often preferred for their flexibility:
- viscose
- cotton
- fabrics with elastane
- soft, stretchy knit
They generally offer greater comfort and adaptability for everyday wear.
The pieces to wear with extra care
Some pieces may be less suitable depending on the stage of pregnancy:
- rigid, non-stretch jeans
- very fitted trousers
- highly structured clothing
- very fitted waists
This doesn’t mean they are off-limits, simply that they may be less comfortable at certain stages.
