Maternity and Nursing dresses for Special Occasions

I've had lots and lots of requests for nursingwear for special occasions... lots of new mamas have weddings and parties to go to and find themselves in the same position I did shortly after I'd had both of my babies, and had a number of weddings to go to. My inability to find a gorgeous nursing dress was what led me to set up Bella Mama in the first place, so I can definitely sympathise with that panicky feeling of wanting to look fab at an event, and needing to be able to breastfeed easily whilst there. Nothing more stressful than either feeling like you're going to expose tummy or boobs whilst feeding your baby, or wondering if the only private place you're going to be able to feed is in the loos - ugh.

I have chosen some beautiful breastfeeding dresses for Bella Mama's Autumn/Winter collection this year, all of which will allow you to feed your baby quickly, easily and with minimum fuss and no boob/tummy flashing! Here's a quick rundown of some of my favourites:

Maternalove Isabella nursing dress - £48.00
This classic breastfeeding dress with a hint of understated sexiness can be worn for just about any occasion, and has been selling well since it hit the stockroom this week! The Isabella Nursing Dress has a simple surplice neckline and faux wrap skirt, the sash can be wrapped around your waist several times and tied at the side for an elegant touch. The dress is very comfortable with the fluid, smooth jersey knit skimming gently over your curves. To nurse, pull aside the surplice neckline to access the concealed nursing openings.

Mayreau Cowl Breastfeeding Dress - £89.00

This luxurious breastfeeding dress is made from super-soft modal fabric, just divine, it feels buttery soft on the skin and gives a real feeling of luxury. The cowl neck cleverly conceals the nursing access, and the gathered sleeve detail is a stylish twist. This dress is just the perfect balance of comfortable, functional and glamorous!! Super easy to nurse in, just pull aside the cowl neckline and lift the modesty layer. Voila! easy breastfeeding.

Annee Matthew Valencia Breastfeeding Dress - £55.00

Another gorgeous design from Annee Matthew, queen of delicious nursing dresses for new mamas! Stylish ruching detail, figure flattering styling and a gorgeous rich wine colour combine to create a lovely dress for breastfeeding mamas attending a special event. Breastfeeding is easy, just lift the dress at the empire line ruching to access the nursing openings.

To save £10 on any dress in Bella Mama's AW10 collection THIS WEEKEND ONLY  (12-14th November) please use code FABDRESS at checkout, and look forward to celebrating and breastfeeding at your special occasion in style!

Best Breastfeeding Dresses at Bella Mama

Here's a quick top 3 rundown of last week's most popular breastfeeding dresses at Bella Mama:

1. Milk Nursingwear Print Sundress

Gorgeous print, fabulous design and our best-selling nursing dress last month! Just beautiful for wearing in the sunshine, and the lovely print means you can change the look just by wearing with different accessories or a different coloured cardi. Very versatile!



2. Milk Nursingwear Breastfeeding Sundress Green/Purple/Black

Almost matching the sales of the print sundress, the Green, Black and Purple sundresses have also been incredibly popular with new nursing mamas - brilliant for feeding, and so soft and flattering to wear.


3. Annee Matthew Kate Breastfeeding Dress Dove Grey

This lovely nursing dress has been really popular with mamas looking for a pretty dress to wear to a summer wedding. The floaty ruffles give a real feminine edge to this piece, so just add a pretty fascinator and some sparkly shoes and you are ready to celebrate!

Hooray for Breastfeeding Dresses!!

Just had the loveliest mail from a v. happy customer:

I received the dress today - what super quick delivery - especially this close to Christmas. Wanted this dress for xmas day - it looks lovely and is very flattering on my tummy - a very good thing after 4 children (most recently twins!)

Looking foward to wearing it on xmas day, knowing i'll look good and be wearing a dress - in all my years of breastfeeding i've always had to miss out on wearing dresses until i wasn't breastfeeding anymore - so thank you so much!

Yay! I am delighted that the dress is so brilliant! Milk Nursingwear is exclusive to Bella Mama in the UK and has been really well received by our nursing mamas!
