It can be hard to deal with jeans when your waistline is growing on a daily basis, so opting for some oversized dungarees with a bit of stretch is a great (comfortable!) way to achieve a similar denim look.

If you’re used to belting your shift dresses for a little more shape, consider pairing a shorter style with a longer coat for a more interesting silhouette. It’s a different way to add structure, but it gets the job done and looks chic!

While you might be tempted to spend your nine months in exclusively long, flowy dresses, don’t think you can’t rock a mini with tons of stretch! We love this denim take layered over a basic white tee.

What’s more comfortable than a maxi T-shirt dress paired with Converse? Nothing, that’s what, and the look also happens to be pretty damn chic. A neutral tie-dye colorway is fun, but not too bold for everyday wear.

If you can’t make the bottoms of your fave matching set work during pregnancy, slip your cute top over a flowy dress for an entirely new look! We love this leather take paired with black knee-high boots.

If you’re not into the look of a stretchier material, go for a more luxe feel but with a billowy silhouette, so you don’t lose out on comfort. Ashley Graham shows us how it’s done in this green Marina Rinaldi stunner.

Talk about a dream vacay look! If you’re hitting the beach while pregnant, pairing your bikini or a bra-style top with a matching maxi skirt is a fashion-forward look that really shows off your bump.

If you are one of those people dead-set on wearing flowy dresses all nine months, that’s perfectly fine! Have fun with it by changing up your neckline and going for at least one or two off-the-shoulder moments.
