In a similar vein to Nike, the Adidas Maternity range is high-quality and designed to flex with your changing body through every stage of pregnancy. While Nike is our go-to for performance cuts, sweat-wicking fabrics and styles for the ever-active mama, Adidas nails sports-luxe loungewear that can also be worn for low-impact exercise. From supportive yoga pants to tracksuit bottoms and hoodies which use drawstrings to highlight your beautiful bump, the Adidas maternity collection champions your team of two.

Sezane’s commitment to sustainability is clear, making it one of the best brands on our radar. Though not strictly maternity, a lot of their pieces are perfect for growing bumps, plus, all leather goods are vegetable-tanned – a more responsible process than traditional methods that use heavy metals – and they are FSC certified. On top of that, their designs have a vintage vibe that makes them timeless and suitable for every pregnancy you might be lucky enough to have in the future.

Available on both ASOS and River Island's own-brand site, River Island maternity clothes are trend-led and stylish. Think cool, influencer-adored pieces they're already known (and loved) for, just with extra room for your growing bump.
Proving you don't need to lounge around in a tracksuit all day to be comfortable, their maternity mom jeans and maternity shorts have soft waistbands which stretch over your bump, while their maternity dresses feature shirred detailing to adapt to your changing body in all three trimesters (and beyond). The jumpsuits are particularly great right now.

We cannot with how pretty Wednesday's Girl maternity collection is. The dresses are an obvious go-to but we love the fun patterned jumpsuits and striped shirting. They look endlessly more expensive than they actually are and are super easy to throw-on-and-go when the weather is as warm as it has been lately. Plus, you could easily get away with wearing them postpartum. Result.

Nike first launched their maternity range back in 2020, after speaking to 30 female athletes who were both pregnant and not pregnant – and scanning over 150,000 scans of expectant mother's bodies. They dropped a four-piece collection designed for women throughout all stages of pregnancy, including sports bras, the best maternity leggings, hoodies and a tank top. Since then, they've expanded their maternity offering tenfold, and you'll find a range of performance-led styles to work out (and lounge) in during from the first trimester until after your baby arrives. So. Good.

Isabella Oliver is a B-Corp, a winner at the UN Global Climate Action Awards, sources 100% of fabrics responsibly (including organic cotton) and manufactures in Europe.

Bump & Milk was founded by Alex, a mum to two boys who has experienced every high and low of new motherhood. She wanted to create a maternity brand which was the opposite of the frumpy smock and breastfeeding cliché – stocking chic, long maternity dresses to breastfeeding hoodies and everything in between. They're all about confident style that feels like “you” and will work postpartum too.

Mamas-to-be the country over rave about GAP maternity clothes, with reviewers obsessed with their high-quality and accessible price point. Though some reviewers reported that you should size-up in some styles to accommodate your changing body shape and growing bump, you'll be spoiled for choice. Make sure you filter by category like activewear, nursing bras, sweaters or tees and more. The star of the show? Their epic denim maternity dungarees. All the best-laid plans of only rocking non-maternity clothes tend to go out of the window by six months, but the joy of a jumpsuit or maternity overalls is that it's one piece and you're done.

How we tested the best maternity clothes
Our Website Director, Bianca London, used her own pregnancy as the perfect excuse to trial run the best maternity styles out there and compile this edit. She has shopped for sartorial staples from both independent and high street maternity brands during the second and third trimesters. She also asked her well-dressed pregnant pals and new mums for their top tips to find high-quality maternity wear and scoured Instagram for the ultimate inspiration.
What month should you start wearing maternity clothes?
This is entirely your call: you could start wearing the above stylish maternity clothes when you no longer feel comfortable in your normal outfits, even if that's in your first trimester. Generally, most pregnant women will begin wearing maternity clothes when their regular 'fits feel tight, which might be a few weeks into their second trimester - perhaps around 13-16 weeks onwards. But don’t forget, your maternity style is totally down to you.
Should I size up in maternity clothes? Or do you buy the same size in maternity clothes?
Your maternity size is likely to be around the same size as you were pre-pregnancy - most brands recommend choosing the same size in maternity pieces. So, if you wore a size 10 in jeans pre-baby, you'll probably be fine to wear a size 10 in maternity jeans when you're expecting. Of course, it's a bit of trial and error – but maternity sizes are generally the same as non-maternity sizes, just with extra panels or adjustment to fit around your bump and growing baby.
