The interesting detail here is the dress’s square cleavage. During pregnancy your chest can double in size and this kind of cut will keep your dresscode modest and discreet (if that’s what you are looking for). Opt for high heels when wearing this kind of length to elongate your silhouette. ROYAL MOTHERHOOD In honour of Mother's Day, we take tips from mum-to-be, the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, who has all eyes on her growing bump. The American former actress has been a reference in terms of style since her Suits days and she has proven that royalty has only improved her style radar. WHIMSICAL ILLUSION Transparency does not always act in favour of pregnant women, but when well-chosen it can make the risk worthwhile. The printed chiffon dress reflects the duchess’s style; chic yet with a hint of laid-back flair, and traditional, but full of contemporary elements. The suede kneehigh boots are the perfect pick for those chilly days when warm feet are all you want. NUDE PALETTE We can’t say Meghan is not a risk taker when addressing her wardrobe. In this appearance, she’s not only picked a simple body-hugging dress (yes, it really is from H&M), she also wore an entire look in shades of beige, a style mastered only by confident fashionistas. A one-tone outfit can be a smart way to update your workwear look; what about trying it for that important meeting? BOLD COLOUR BLOCK Do you still have doubts as to whether red and purple work well together? Meghan paired a daring long wool coat with a shift midi dress for a classic look. Her accessory choices go from audacious red pumps to a neutral camel handbag. The earthy shade is a good pick to tone down the other elements, an elegant way of complementing the outfit.
