Dressing the Bump: How Our Favorite Celebumoms Manage to Look Chic + Comfortable While Preggers

By Natasha Burton

In terms of how one should dress at each age, comfort is really key. Stephanie Boye, designer of the Chiarakruza, the stylish maternity line that boasts fans such as Halle Berry, gave Mommywood her top tips for looking your best while carrying baby:

Preggers in your 20’s?

1. SPICE IT UP: Pregnancy is a very sexy time in a woman’s life. And in your 20’s you can get away with easy carefree looks. Spice up your young look with flirty, super stylish dresses.

2. TAKE A RISK: You are too young to lock yourself into just one look. Be cool. Be silly. Take advantage.

3. STAY TRUE TO YOUR INDIVIDUAL STYLE: Dressing in your 20’s allows for some fun and wild outfits, but it doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your style to the trends. Wear what suits you best, whether you prefer to go comfortable, chic, or classic.

Preggers in your 30’s and 40’s?

1. PICK PIECES THAT FLATTER YOU: Be comfortable in your skin. Keeping up with the latest trend is less important than knowing what looks great on you! Halle Berry is a perfect example that being pregnant in your 40’s does not mean you have to sacrifice your amazing style. (Halle often wore Chiarakruza’s Netalie Turtleneck and Sexy Jeans).

2. BE BOLD: Have fun with colors. Spring and summer are the perfect time to opt for bright colors. Bold hues not only look fresh, they can also lift your spirits. Minnie Driver, 38, dazzled in a bright red dress when she appeared on Jay Leno’s show.

3. HAVE FUN: Showcase your bump with empire-waist tops and dresses. As a mom-to-be in her 40’s, Nicole has managed to make pregnancy look chic by wearing outfits that emphasized her sexy curves.
