One of the worst fears of women who are accustomed to wearing sexy clothes is not being able to wear sexy clothing when they get pregnant. Although it is true that weight gain is very common is pregnancy, a pregnant woman’s belly usually starts getting big on the third month. Then from the second trimester onwards, she can start wearing sexy maternity clothes.
Yes, you read it right. It is still possible to wear sexy maternity clothes even when you’re pregnant! Although it is true that most maternity clothes emphasize comfort that’s why we often see loose clothing style, there are also other styles that can make you look sexy. These are tunic tops, tunic dresses, and maxi dresses.
In the first trimester, pregnant women can wear most of their pre-pregnancy wear. However, they should avoid wearing tight jeans as this might harm the growing baby. If your jeans start to get tight, consider buying pants with elastic waists rather than buying regular pants that is one or two sizes bigger. Babydoll dresses or ones without a waistline are also a great choice. They don’t only look sexy, giving emphasis on your upper body, but they also give enough space for your growing baby without highlighting your tummy.
From the second trimester onwards, you can start shopping for sexy maternity clothes. You can buy monochromatic tops and bottoms. The single color effect will make you appear taller and give you a slimmer look. It is recommended that you choose boat-neck or high-neck tops. This will emphasize your shoulders and give you a narrower effect. Avoid horizontal stripes especially in the latter half of your pregnancy. Clothes with plunging neckline are also a good choice. Even Jennifer Lopez of J.Lo sported sexy maternity dress with plunging neckline when she was heavily pregnant! In fact, since a pregnant woman’s breasts grow bigger, it can be the best time to highlight those assets. Even Broadway star Lea Salonga exclaimed that she felt sexier when she was pregnant because of this specific change!
It’s definitely possible and there’s nothing wrong about wearing sexy maternity clothes during pregnancy. However, keep in mind that this stage is one of the best stages in a woman’s life and enjoying it and watching your belly grow bigger and bigger beats the pride and feeling of looking sexy.
