When building your maternity wardrobe, it's easy to focus on dresses, maternity workwear, and pieces for special occasions. But maternity loungewear is the unsung hero, offering comfort and versatility that you’ll rely on more than you might expect.
During Pregnancy:
Comfort becomes key, especially as you approach the end of your third trimester During these final weeks, soft, stretchy fabrics that breathe and allow ease of movement will become your best friend. It’s the kind of clothing you’ll wear not just around the house but on quick errands, at prenatal check-ups, and even during hospital stays.
During Postpartum:
In the early postpartum days, as you adjust to a 24/7 feeding schedule and the challenges of sleep deprivation, loungewear will be on heavy rotation. You’ll need clothes that are soft, cosy, and stretchy to support your recovery and accommodate your postpartum body. And when you stick to a neutral colour palette, you’ll feel chic and put-together even in your most comfortable moments.
Here are our favourite loungewear pieces from our recent Spring Sport/Lounge Collection, as curated by L/H Muse Nicole (@nicolekgriggs).
