Pregnancy can make getting dressed feel a little more complicated than it used to.

Suddenly, the jeans you’ve worn for years don’t quite fit. Your favourite tops sit differently. Things you used to reach for without thinking now require a little more consideration.

But we don’t think the answer is replacing your entire wardrobe with a completely new one.

The best pregnancy wardrobe is one that feels like YOUR wardrobe, but just adapted to your changing body.

Instead of buying everything at once, think about the pieces you genuinely love wearing and how you can find versions that work with you throughout pregnancy and beyond.

Here’s where we’d start:

 

1. Start with denim:

If denim is part of your everyday wardrobe, don’t give it up just because you’re pregnant.

A great pair of maternity jeans can completely change the way you feel about getting dressed. Look for silhouettes that you would normally wear, such as, straight-leg, wide-leg, relaxed or cropped, rather than defaulting to a style that doesn’t feel like you.

Our Heaven Straight Jeans are a Soon staple for exactly this reason. They’re designed around a classic straight-leg silhouette, so they feel like the jeans you’d already be wearing, but just made to accommodate your changing body.

The goal? Maternity denim that doesn’t look like maternity denim.

 

2. Invest in good tops

The trick with tops during pregnancy is not necessarily buying more, it’s choosing the right shapes.

Think relaxed shirts, oversized button-downs, soft tees, knitwear and tops with a little extra room through the body.

These pieces can work with your changing bump without feeling overly “maternity”, and many can continue to work after pregnancy too.

 

Our Base Soft Rib Tank is a piece you'll reach for on repeat.

It’s easy under denim. Perfect with trousers. And will keep you toasty when layered beneath knitwear.

 

For something a little more elevated, the Danielle Knit Top brings both softness and structure while still giving you room to move.

 

03. Get activewear that grows with you, but still feels like you.

Your wardrobe shouldn’t stop at everyday dressing.

Whether you’re walking, doing Pilates, strength training or simply moving more throughout the day, having activewear that feels comfortable and looks good can make getting dressed for movement feel like part of your normal routine.

Soon Activewear is designed to move with your changing body, so you don’t have to feel like you’ve stepped into a completely different wardrobe just because you’re pregnant.

Our Wide Leg Overbelly Leggings are designed with our signature contouring underbump seam, an expert Soon design detail that helps create a comfortable, supportive fit as your body changes throughout pregnancy.

The overbelly waistband sits softly over the bump, while the wide-leg silhouette feels elevated enough to take you beyond the gym.

 

FINAL NOTE:

You don’t need a completely new identity when you become pregnant.

You just need clothes that work with the body you have now.

Keep the denim you love. Find silhouettes that make you feel good. Invest in pieces you’ll actually wear. And most importantly, don’t stop dressing like yourself.

Your wardrobe might change throughout pregnancy. Your body certainly will. But your personal style doesn’t have to.

 

WITH LOVE,
