Client Wardrobe
For every motherhood chapter
I believe your session should be as stress-free as possible. It can be a daunting task to find a flattering dress that suits your style and you feel comfortable in, especially when you’re late in your third trimester of pregnancy or have just given birth.
This is why I started to build a client wardrobe – so you have one less thing to worry about. Most of the options in my wardrobe are baby bump friendly and adjustable around the waist to flatter your body beautifully.
To be added to my client wardrobe a dress has to fulfil these criteria:
1. Fit a variety of body shapes and sizes
2. Be comfortable. All dresses are flowy and soft – no pinching and sucking in bellies - I promise.
3. Be timeless.
