Maternity fashion: What we recommend and what you can pay attention to

Sustainable Maternity Fashion: Stylish During Pregnancy and Beyond

Maternity fashion is a sensitive topic for many expectant moms: you want to feel comfortable, look good, and not spend a fortune — especially on clothes you’ll only wear for a few months. Luckily, there are brands that successfully balance these needs by focusing on sustainability, quality, and timeless design. In this article, we’ll show you what to look out for in maternity fashion, when you actually need it, and introduce great brands like The Mama Set and abricot coco that create fashion for pregnancy AND the time after.

Advantages of sustainable maternity fashion:

• Eco-friendly materials (e.g., organic cotton, Tencel, recycled fabrics)
• Fair production, often in Europe
• Timeless cuts and colors
• Practical details like nursing access or adjustable waistbands

Favorite Brands for Pre- and Postpartum Use

The Mama Set: A fantastic choice! This brand has rethought maternity fashion from scratch, offering stylish, minimalistic looks that work before, during, and especially after pregnancy. We particularly love their leggings with fold-over waistbands that reduce pelvic pressure during pregnancy and provide cozy stability postpartum. Plus, the brand focuses on sustainable materials and fair production.

• Cut: Flexible cuts (e.g., wrap dresses, loose blouses, leggings with elastic waistbands) adapt to your changing body.
• Sustainability: Certifications like GOTS or Fairtrade offer guidance.
• Value for money: Sustainable fashion pays off thanks to its longer lifespan.

Fun Fact: Why Sustainability Matters Twice Here

Many maternity clothes are only worn for a few months and then discarded. Sustainable brands extend their lifespan through high-quality materials and thoughtful design — good for the environment and your wallet.
