Claudia Schiffer advises pregnat women to wear clothes a few sizes bigger to look stylish.

The supermodel, who is expecting her third baby with husband Matthew Vaughn, claims she doesn’t wear tight clothes when she’s pregnant. She prefers to buy normal garments and have them altered so they don’t cling to her growing body.

She said:

I’m not the sort of person who likes to wear tight clothes when I’m pregnant, but I’m not a fan of maternity dresses either, so my advice would be to get things a few sizes bigger and have them tailored to fit.”

Talking on how to keep the figure beautiful she says creams help her a lot as well as healthy eating.

She said:

I do like to put a lot of cream on my tummy, as long it’s natural. I think it really works to help stretch marks and make the skin really nice and soft.”

We have recently written that Heidi Klum didn’t want to wear maternity clothes as those she could find looked unflattering. Now she is happy to present her own maternity lines which promise mommies-to-be comfort and sophistiction.

The two ranges were launched yesterday, on February 11, at Destination Maternity Store in New York City.

The Project Runway host was very excited showing off her Lavish by Heidi Klum and Loved by Heidi Klum collections. Dressed in black leggings, black jacket, white shirt and a pair of metallic grey pumps the supermodel looked stunning.

All the proceeds from the event benefitted Baby Buggy charity organisation founded by Jessica Seinfeld, who attended the lauch party too.

When asked about her perfect post-baby form, Heidi said that the key to staying in shape is taking care of her kids’ various needs.

She commented:

I eat healthily and stay active. I have four children that I am running after, I jump on the trampoline with them, run after them.”

Christian Siriano’s line funnily called Fierce Mamas maternity collection for Moody Mamas has been expected for long and now finally we have a chance to look at it.

The range is nice and looks very comfortable though I cannot find anything really special about it. It includes dresses and tops for mothers-to-be. The designs are mostly simple, with good tailoring and soft fabrics. Everything is done to make women feel good in clothing.

Some dresses are for evening wear. They come in rich fabrics and beautiful colors and will definitely flatter every expectant mother.

Tops are more ordinary. They are long enough to cover the bump and any problem areas a pregnant woman might have.

All the garments are available at moodymamas.com.

Being pregnant is not easy physically, emotionally and even fashionably. If you work you need to look good no matter how big your baby bump is. But dressing stylishly is possible and it doesn’t always mean spending all your salary on clothes.

When shopping for maternity clothing keep in mind a few important things:

1. Monotone and soft hues are perfect. You can combine garments of these colors more successfully than those of bright tints. Darker tones are more practical and have a slimming effect, so your belly will look smaller than it is. Of course you don’t need to hide your pregnancy but demonstrating it too much is not a good thing either. So for a certain period you better avoid vivid colors, extraordinary combinations and tight-fitting clothes.

Simple ensembles coming in black, beige, brown, grey, blue and khaki tones should be brightened up with bold accessories: scarves, headwear, chunky jewelry and, of course, footwear. All these items you’ll be able to wear after having a baby, too.

Beth Ditto, an eccentric singer, confessed she buys her clothes from maternity shops. The woman said she is happy to wear garments intended for pregnant women.

When she was asked where she shops at home in Portland, Oregon, the 28-old replied:

Hilariously, Motherhood Maternity, in the mall! There’s also Fat Fancy, a plus size vintage store. I think Primark is pretty fantastic too. I got two pairs of harem pants from there recently. I like the idea of mixing them with a crazy Charles Anastase shirt or a Vivienne Westwood sweater.”

Beth is famous for wearing tight-fitting clothing that often reveals her huge curves. She even likes shocking her fans at concerts by demonstrating her body.

She said:

I feel sexiest in a little dress. People ask why I pull my dress up on stage – it’s because my dresses aren’t big enough. That’s why you see my legs all the time.”

The Gossip singer has recently designed a plus-size fashion range for UK store Evans that looks very pretty.

Heidi Klum cannot be stopped if she wants something very much. The model, who was forced to quit on her jewelry line after Van Cleef & Arpels filed a lawsuit against her, is planning to launch a feminine clothing range.

The line is described as “a pervasive lifestyle collection” for fall 2010. It will begin from shoes — 48 styles actually. The inspiration is apparently the same as every celebrity’s with a fashion line — her own closet.

The shoes will be “feminine with a bit of a fashion and rock ‘n’ roll edge.” And of course the range will include clothes, dresses, and bathing suits.
Heidi’s maternity collection will be available in February. And then it is planned to promote the new range on Project Runway with challenges for the designers to create pieces for her lines.

In 2007 Heidi Klum  was served with a lawsuit by luxury jeweler Van Cleef and Arpels, claiming she copied a vintage clover jewelry design on the pendant she wore a lot to the Project. Heidi stated she had found inspiration for “her signature clover motif in a cathedral in Milan, Italy“. The case was later dismissed.

Heidi Klum refuses to wear maternity clothes.

The supermodel – who is going to have her fourth child in two months – says she wants and needs to look gorgeous and fashionable all the time, that is why instead of wearing maternity clothes she chooses to dress in larger sizes of her favorite designer outfits.

She commneted:

My stylist tries to find things that are not maternity clothes, so I’ve been wearing a lot from The Row, by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. I love their clothes. Marc Jacobs too. You just buy things in a size 10 – when you’re doing a show on fashion, you still have to bring it on.”

Heidi is not the only model of Victoria’s Secret who is pregnant at the moment. Other beautiful mothers-to be are: Adriana Lima, Gisele Bundchen and Karolina Kurkova. Women exchange advice on motherhood, nannies and fashion.

Nicole Richie has launched her maternity clothing line called “Nicole” n Thursday (August 6) in Beverly Hills, California.

The socialite is now pregnant with her second child, so the line is a pretty good idea. Nicole does know what moms-to-be need.

The woman hopes women will feel “excited” with her line for A Pea in the Pod. The line is a 14-piece capsule set, including maxi dresses, peasant tops, layered t-shirts and braided details.

Nicole commented:

You really feel like you have to change your whole wardrobe when you’re pregnant. And that’s the last thing a woman wants to go through. So I really tried to make this line to get women excited about wearing clothes.

She added:

I think the pregnant body is beautiful, and I think you should show it off.”

Nicole likes when everything goes right and she sees the finished garments.

It feels great to see everything come to life. It’s the best feeling in the world to have your visions and dreams coming together. I’m so excited for people to see them. I just hope that people like it.”

Nicole was very excited herself when Pea in the Pod offered her to work with them:

I’m excited to join A Pea in the Pod in creating my capsule collection,” Nicole said. “I hope that the ease and comfort of my designs will help expectant moms to look and feel amazing throughout their pregnancy.”

Reebok company decided to expand the range of clothes they produce and included maternity apparels into the list. You might be surprised to know the label focusing mainly on sport style developed a design for expectant women. But don’t be, as this option is not accidental.

The results of a company research revealed that more than 40 percent of the viewers of NFL games are women and, making women’s NFL apparel is Reebok’s fastest growing business.

Reebok’s NFL women’s product manager explains:

We realized how women were buying the product, but then we were ignoring them for nine months while they were pregnant.”

The new collection consists of “a line of cotton maternity T-shirts with team logos and kitschy sayings like “#1 Draft Pick” and “Kicker” printed across the belly.

There is also a line of gift packs available, which includes a T-shirt and matching bib and onesie.

Swimming is very useful for expectant mothers. It is a great way to stay fit and healthy during pregnancy, thus it is certainly worth making a decision.

However, finding good fitting maternity swimwear is not easy for many moms-to-be. It’s hard enough finding the right fit, needed breast support and a pretty design.

Some people say expectant mothers can opt for plus-size swimwear as it is also meant for fuller figures. But this is not right for many reasons.

First of all because maternity swimwear is specifically designed and cut to fit the unique shape of a pregnant woman.

Maternity swimsuits tend to offer the exact kind of support and coverage a mom-to-be wants and needs to help her look and feel best during this very special time of her life.

This shape can be a lot different from other full figure body types. Maternity swimsuits often support right where the expectant woman needs it.

For example, a woman’s bust line can increase dramatically during the course of a pregnancy, so extra support is often needed to keep the suit fitting correctly.

In addition, most pregnant swimwear has bodice detailing to emphasize rather than de-emphasize the woman’s waistline. This way you can show your natural beauty.

Maternity swimwear bottoms are also specifically shaped so that they hug the backside and stay in place when moving around both in and out of the water.

Some pregnant women prefer to squeeze into pre-pregnancy swimwear considering it is unreasonable to buy an expensive maternity swimsuit.

This is not a good decision though. You will never have a flattering silhouette wearing usual swimwear, no necessary support will be provided for your growing body and also imagine how many swimsuits you will need during all nine month of the pregnancy period.

I guess that’s enough to persuade you to invest into a good maternity swimwear.

Pregnancy swimwear can be as fashionable as other type of swimsuit and each woman can find a piece she likes. Besides, pregnancy swimwear is divided into styles. These are the following.
