The Best Non-Maternity Dresses for Each Trimester of Your Pregnancy - Vogue

Below, a trimester-by-trimester guide of some of the best non-maternity dresses that will work for your pre-baby body, your baby-growing body, your post-baby body, and everything in between!

First Trimester

Most of the first trimester is spent in a sort of limbo: Between morning sickness (read: all-day sickness) and the uncertainties of those first few early weeks, you’re likely caught between wanting to shout your pregnancy from the rooftops while also wanting to keep it close to home. You probably won’t look any different at first, too which will feel maddening considering how different you feel. There is also often the frustrating sensation of waking up with a relatively flat stomach and having a bump by the end of the day—very hard for wardrobe planning! The best dresses for this stage are fitted up top for definition but have a bit of wiggle room in the body for whatever is happening on any particular day (or hour). I relied heavily on a puff-sleeved La Ligne dress and smocked dresses from Dôen during this stage.

Second Trimester

The golden age of any pregnancy, the second trimester, brings the true debut of that bump and he or she or them should be shown off in all their glory! I was personally thrilled when the bump officially came out. Dresses with a belt or tie of some kind are great for this stage as a bit of waist-cinching adds just the right amount of definition. I lived in a loose Brock Collection dress that had a delicate self-tie sash at the waist, I even wore a pink version of it to my baby shower! A fitted knit dress like Khaite’s Leana dress is also a great option if you’re really feeling your bump and want to show it off, or for those getting used to their changing shape, a wrap dress does the trick just as well.

Third Trimester

Comfort is key as you near the end; think loose, flowy silhouettes and anything in the caftan or cotton poplin category. Garments with a removable belt that worked in the second trimester are ideal here as you can remove the tie and wear it loosely. I absolutely lived in Jenni Kayne’s James dress throughout my pregnancy—it was perfectly belted in the early days and loose and flowy when I needed it most at the end. If any fancier occasions fall during your third trimester, an empire waist is the way to go, Agua by Agua Bendita has some beautiful options.

After Baby Arrives

The long-awaited final stretch; the baby is here and you are both figuring out your way in this new sleepy world together. Between the swaddling debate, sleep schedules, and tackling breastfeeding/pumping/bottle feeding, the last thing on earth you want to be doing is thinking about what to wear. Luckily, your workhorse pieces from the last three trimesters should still see you through. Anything with buttons is great for breastfeeding or pumping; I loved a shirt dress from Thierry Colson and my Sleeper dresses. And any of the loose-fitting dresses from your third trimester should be just the thing for your healing body (paired with any undergarment from Bodysuit too.) Hopefully, everything from your pregnancy journey can hang in your closet with pride afterward and be reached for again and again, milk stains and all!
