Breastfeeding dresses are one of the best styles for new mums to wear after the birth. They’re soft, they’re easy to wear and style, and most importantly – they’re not too tight around any of your post-partum curves. Dresses from Mamalicious are made with mums-to-be and new mothers in mind – meaning that some dresses can be used both as a maternity dress and after the baby is born, or that special consideration has been put into the details. This includes soft, stretchy materials, optional tie belts, hidden nursing functions, seamless layers and flattering silhouettes for the body after pregnancy.
How to style a nursing dress
As a new mum, it’s nice to have days where you can look your best (despite the sleepless nights) and not have to worry whether you’ll be able to easily feed your baby without removing half your outfit. All our dresses are chic enough that all you need is to throw them on, pair with your favourite shoes and accessories – and you’ve instantly got a fabulous look. Is it a bit chilly out? Then layer your nursing day dress with a sleek pair of leggings or post-partum jeans underneath for an on-trend look. Choose a wide dress with a fun print or bold geometric design, and go for a bottom with a skinny fit. Pair with flats or some chunky sneakers, and you’re good to go! Our soft maternity knits will also fit you after your pregnancy and are nice and roomy to wrap around you. And don’t forget the basics – you’ll also find soft nursing bras and nursing tank tops to wear underneath, if needed.
Breastfeeding dresses for all occasions
At Mamalicious, we make trendy breastfeeding clothes for all occasions – and we especially love dresses for their versatility and stylishness. If the sun’s out and the temperatures go up, opt for a breezy, sleeveless nursing day dress. Pick one made from airy cotton or flowy viscose, and pair with strappy sandals and a broad straw hat for that perfect summer look. Once the first chill is in the air, opt for one of our knit dresses or thick jersey dresses with zippers. Wear a nursing tank top and tights underneath for extra warmth – it’s not only for comfort, but also to reduce any risk of milk fever, especially in those early months.
If you’re planning on taking your little one with you to a festive occasion, we’ve got a range of pretty nursing dresses for weddings and parties. Take your pick among our selection of airy, short-sleeved dresses, lace nursing dresses and pretty chiffon dresses in various prints and colours. The hidden nursing function sits seamlessly across your bust and doesn’t add any extra bulk. That way, it allows you to easily and discreetly feed your baby – while still looking fabulously festive. Still a bit concerned if you’ll be too exposed? Then bring along a nursing scarf, a nursing cover for you and your baby which doubles as a fashionable (and warm) accessory when worn around the neck.
