Pregnancy Cocktail Dress

  • During the first trimester, you can wear most of the clothes that you are currently using. It is recommended not to use tight jeans or pants during the entire pregnancy period. Tight clothes can have a negative impact on the growth and health of your unborn baby.
  • Clothes with elastic suit the expanding belly the most. You can wear pants or skirts with elastic or a free flowing dress. These clothes can be reused once the baby is born and you have not yet gone back to your original size.
  • It is advisable to choose over-sized clothes. The maternity clothes should be comfortable for the expanding belly.
  • Monochromatic colors make a person look taller and slimmer. This rule is also applicable for expecting mothers. You should choose blouses, tops and pants made for petite woman in monochromatic colors.
  • Choosing the right neck-line is also of vital importance. Boat necks, rounded ‘V’ and high necks accentuate the shoulders, thereby giving them a slimmer look.
  • Women with petite frame should regularly choose vertical stripes. Horizontal stripes will make them look stout and short. Horizontal stripes should be avoided totally in the last trimester.
  • Fashionistas advise not to wear geometric and/or floral prints. It’s best to use smaller and subtler prints.
  • Cotton fabric is the best fabric that should be worn during the pregnancy months. Cotton allows the skin to breathe. Very often women complain about skin rashes and itchy skin. Cotton fabric solves this problem totally. Other than cotton, you can also choose any airy or light fabric.
  • It is also advisable to get cheap petite maternity clothes, as you will not be using most of your petite clothes after the baby is born. Hence, it is not worth spending a fortune on maternity clothes.
  • The mother of all tips is - not to buy too many clothes during the pregnancy period.
