The Family Groove Belly Files

THE BELLY FILES
MATERNITY FASHION'S HOTTEST HOUSES TALK SHOP-PING

Looking and feeling pretty, oh so pretty isn't always easy when your belly is a-swelling. A lot of times
mamas-to-be resort to oversized (read: frumpy) clothes (read: their husband's), feeling as out of touch
with the latest styles and how to wear them as they do with their growing bodies.

THE FAMILY GROOVE is here to say that you don't have to sacrifice style for the next nine plus months—
and you don't have to spend a fortune to do so either. Each month, we'll give you the insider scoop on
the hippest bump styles à la mode straight from the fashion experts who have created them.


Emilia Fabricant, founder of the trendsetting, luxury line Cadeau Maternity, says fall's style can be dressed up in three words: Sensual, feminine, glamorous. “This season, it's all about luxe mixed with moments of simplicity. Romantic details and layering continue to be important, yet take on a modern approach. Rich hues, such as eggplant and deep brown, combine seamlessly with earth-inspired tones and are complemented by classic colors, such as navy, camel and ivory. Silhouettes skim the body with a new sophistication. Long knee length peg skirts in lurex tweed mix with soft cashmere turtlenecks give an air of refined elegance, while dresses grace every curve. Jackets take on new shapes and can be worn with trousers or denim.”
