Pretty maternity wear for stylish baby bumps

Dressing for pregnancy might seem like a daunting task, but the truth is that if you buy the right items of clothing, you and your baby bump can look as stylish as anybody else in South Africa

Our favourite celebrities have the advantage of having a big budget, but there are a few tips and pointers we can learn from them and apply to our own lives when the day arrives that we find out we are pregnant.

Here is how Mzansi’s celebs dress their baby bump:

Thembi Seete

At the age of 41, Thembi Seete carried her first child and gave birth to a baby girl.

The singer and actress never compromised her style while she was often spotted in long, flowing dresses that hugged the midriff area just above her bump.

Jessica Nkosi

Jessica Nkosi is one of the latest additions to the expecting mommies club and the soon-to-be first-time mother looks like she’s enjoyed dressing up her bump.

Florence Segal

Many of us didn’t even know that Florence Segal was pregnant; that’s how well she kept her secret from the public eye.

Lesego-Tshepang Mokoena

Thapelo Mokoena left us feeling very broody earlier this month when he and his pregnant wife shared pictures.

Lesego even showed that with mild alteration, mommies-to-be can still rock their beloved croptops.
