So, you’ve been invited to a summer wedding, but unfortunately the invitation’s ‘plus one’ offering just isn’t going to cut it this time. And no, you’re not one of those fussy guests, who make the lives of wedding planners hell. You and your partner are going, but there’s one extra guest in the form of a baby bump gracing your belly.

Good maternity dresses are hard to find at the best of times, but maternity dresses suitable for a wedding - let’s not go there. But with some precision tailoring coupled with some cinching in the right places, you can transform what might otherwise be a dowdy ‘I’m pregnant but trying to hide it’ bore of a dress, into an ‘I’m pregnant and I’m embracing it’ dress that will have other female guests and their partners alike, broody at the sight of you.\
Maternity wear with Isabelle Oliver..
Maternity wear can be sexy; for evidence of this we need look no further than the lovely Mrs Beckham at the Royal Wedding (if there were ever a maternity dress event challenge this would be it) who looked understatedly elegant in an über-flattering boat-necked navy dress from her own label. Revealing just a hint of her bump, Victoria looked a glowing picture of maternity health. So while you might not want to take a leaf out of her book when it comes to her customary 3-inch Louboutin platform heels, it certainly pays to take note of Mrs B’s dress choices during her pregnancy. In the later stages of your pregnancy, wear something that shows off your glorious bump to full effect- do so and you’re guaranteed to be showered with compliments. Just the other day, Vic was spotted at LAX airport looking preg-tastic in a black maternity mini-dress, with leather hemline.
