What are the best dress styles for a pregnant lady? I'm in my second trimester and need some tips on dressing my growing body! Patricia

Congrats on your pregnancy—what an amazing time in your life! Maternity dresses don’t need to sacks that hide your blossoming belly, plus, they’re beyond easy to wear!
Here are the best dress styles for pregnancy, no matter what trimester you’re in:
Maxi Dress the Bump
If you haven’t rocked a maxi dress, now’s the time! Look for one that sits right under the bust line, not at the waist—otherwise you won’t have room to grow!
Wrap the Bump
Wrap dresses are universally flattering and extra comfortable when you have a bun in the oven. In your first trimester, you’ll be able to cinch your tie-waist dress across your stomach, but as you grow you’ll most likely fasten the tie just under your bust. Bonus tip: Wrap dresses are perfect for nursing!
Baby’s Shifting, So Are You
If you want a dress that will grow with you, grab a knit shift dress that’ll hug your expanding bump. A tee shirt shift dress in a breathable (and stretchy) cotton is the perfect option for a casual maternity look.

Dresses can be just the all-in-one outfit you need for fuss-free maternity dressing. Want to see bump-friendly dresses? Take your style quiz, order a Fix and ask your stylist for a few dress styles to find the fits you like. Sit back and relax as you wait for five personalized pieces to arrive. Then, try everything on in the comfort of your home. Keep what you like and send back the rest.
