From the basics to must-haves, here is a crash course on how to get your starter kit.
1. The Must-Haves
If you are a new mother or have not own any maternity apparels before, basic tees (be it loose or body hugging) are a must have. These are tops to wear on your lazy days. There are casual tops that look great and not shabby as well.

3. Bodycon Styles
Don't be surprise if the measurements for these dresses are smaller than your usual measurements. Bodycon designs are very stretchable. Our designs can stretch up to 8-15cm.
4. Office Wear
For working mothers, it can be a pain to find the right working attire while you are pregnant. We know because we've gone through the same thing. Don't worry, we got that covered too.
What you want is a pair of good and comfortable office pants. Just pair them with your long tops that you purchased for your Date Night.
If you don't like wearing pants, look for A-Cut or flare cut dresses. They flow with your body, create a sense of elegance and is extremely comfortable because of the cutting of the dresses. These were my holy grail of many pregnant mothers.
