Blooming Brides

So many of you have written to us asking about clothes for that special day for pregnant ladies, so we've enlisted the help of designer Isabella Oliver who has dresses to make you look stunning - whether you are the Bride, Bridesmaid or a wedding guest.

Stress-free Pregnancy Style for that Special Day
Whether you are the lucky bride-to-be, the devoted bridesmaid, or simply attending a wedding, there is no need to fret over what to wear whilst you are pregnant. Luxurious maternity brand Isabella Oliver offers chic solutions for an array of occasions, and is a must for flawless wedding day style.

The Bride
If you are going to be the blushing bride, then a dramatic floor length design is essential. A fluid, ethereal style exudes femininity; its swathes of silk chiffon providing a romantic silhouette that will ensure you look fabulous as you walk down the aisle. A minimal column-style design is also a chic option, its understated detail providing the perfect blank canvas for accessorising and a contemporary bridal look.

The Bridesmaid
Being a bridesmaid requires you to be in the limelight, so a sophisticated ensemble is a definite must. In the midst of arranging the infamous hen do and other bridesmaid duties, you will also have to find the perfect dress; a design that both you and the bride adore. Remember to choose a design that complements your pregnancy curves, and one that will remain comfortable throughout the day – you may be wearing this dress until late in the evening. You cannot go wrong with a strapless floor-sweeping style, a versatile maxi length that glides over your curves for an effortlessly glamorous look. Avoid bold patterns, and keep things classic, giving the bride the chance to personalise your bridesmaid look with various finishing touches.

The Wedding Guest
You have received your invitation, now all you need to do is find the perfect outfit. There are plenty of options available, so whether you’re attending the ceremony or the evening reception, you are sure to find a stylish wedding guest ensemble. Try a classic black dress with a satin or silk accent for a modern take on the LBD - a feminine, bow detail that ties above your bump is a flattering focal point. If you want to liven up your look in a bold hue, then a timeless wrap dress in a statement dress is the perfect way to make an entrance. Try bright reds, blues and vibrant pinks, simply teaming with glossy black heels and a matching clutch for a wearable day to evening look.
