Breastfeeding Dresses for all occasions

I am getting lots of requests at the moment for fabulous nursing dresses that can be worn at a variety of summer occasions - weddings, parties and christenings. New mamas want nursing dresses which are practical for breastfeeding, but that fit well and look amazing. At Bella Mama we just love the elegant simplicity of a dress, and have some amazing nursing dresses in store.

Here are a selection of my favourites, I'm sure you'll love them too,

Annee Matthew Elena Nursing dress - £38
This popular nursing dress was a sell-out for us in summer, and we had lots of requests to restock it again this year.

The pretty bias cut ensures the dress flutters across your curves, cascading over the knee with a side tie in a bow for a figure-perfect fit right through your pregnancy and beyond. It's perfect dress for a wedding, christening, party, lunches, work, special occasions or holidays or whenever you want to feel fabulous.


Milk nursingwear halter neck breastfeeding dress - £49

Sexy halter style for nursing mamas! Worries over nursing bras to wear with halter necks mean this is a style which is often overlooked. Milk have magically added a built-in shelf-bra and place to hold your nursing pads - meaning you can strut your stuff in style. Gorgeous ruffles add a flirty fun edge to this pretty little dress, whilst the adjustable tie allows for a more customized fit
   
Milkstars Randa Breastfeeding Dress - £55

We're really excited to bring you Milkstars first nursing dress, perfect for weddings, christenings or just relaxing at home!

Super soft fabric is so comfortable to wear, and the cap sleeves and shirring give a pretty, feminine edge to this dress. The cowl neckline is both pretty and practical, nurse quickly and easily through the access by pulling aside the draped cowl neck.

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!

Autumn is finally here... nursing clothing for the season!

The beautiful exceptionally late "Indian Summer" we've been enjoying has finally come to a close... our Halloween celebrations took us on a trail around a local NT property with friends and we all had a fabulous time searching for bats around the spooky mill! The blustery blowy swirling winds of November have finally kicked in and are shaking the leaves from the trees in the garden. Boooooooooooooo!  The rain is beating against my window, my snuggly Ugg boots are on (as ever!) and the logs I stacked into the log store at the weekend are being put to good use!! We are in the midst of redecorating our lounge (paint charts, masking tape, new brushes and dust sheets prevail) and I am trying very hard to persuade Himself that we need a wonderful new log basket that I have spotted in a magazine!!

At Bella Mama we have some wonderful nursingwear that will see you through these cold blustery days in style. In particular we have some captivating breastfeeding tops and dazzling nursing dresses from some fabulous new designers, as well as our very own glamorous Bella Mama label breastfeeding tops. The sumptuous shades of pumpkin, wine, plum, espresso, raspberry, chocolate and damson are positively mouth-watering at this time of the year as well as being incredibly flattering!

We have divine dresses on pre-order from Milk nursingwear (Exclusive to Bella Mama in the UK) as well as other desirable styles of breastfeeding dresses, nursing nightwear and breast feeding tops on their way from the USA, Israel, Australia and Europe! If you follow us on Facebook, you will find out first about all the latest new of our newest additions, great competitions, discounts, brilliant offers and be in line for road testing Bella Mama's newest styles!

What to wear for a Special Occasion

When you're getting ready for your baby’s Christening or the wedding of the year, choosing your outfit is the most exciting yet agonising part of the preparations. For any woman, finding the stylish solution to formalwear is a tricky one but for new Breastfeeding mums the search is even harder.

At Bella Mama we are frequently asked about dresses which are suitable for wearing at Christenings, Weddings and other special occasions. As a new mum you want to wear something girlie and glamorous, that makes you feel fabulous but also allows you to breastfeed your little one easily. You want to wear your beautiful dress and you don’t want to leave the party to sit in the ladies room when your baby is hungry!

The perfect solution to breastfeeding in public with confidence is a dress which has been specially designed to provide easy nursing access. Bella Mama offers the best selection in the UK of nursing dresses suitable for all kinds of special occasions.

Here is a selection of our favourites:

Bella Mama Criss Cross Black

One of our most popular dresses is the Criss Cross Dress from Annee Matthew.  Made from slinky fabric, this simply gorgeous dress has crisscross panels to hide the nursing openings underneath. The dress has been such a hit with new mums, it is incredibly flattering and dresses up beautifully. The flattering design hugs your figure at the right places, and can also be worn during pregnancy, ensuring the dress is extra-good value! Beautiful jewellery and a wrap finish this dress perfectly. Available in classic black or stylish golden olive.

Bella Mama Dote Noir Black

One of Bella Mama’s newest designers is Dote Nursingwear. The Noir Dress has just flown out of the store, and no wonder as it is simply divine. The dress has a gathering across the neckline and skirt, disguising any post-baby tummy. It can be accessorised with a belt or sparkly scarf, giving an edgy fashionable look.

Bella Mama Gercian Mauve

Another exceptionally popular dress with new mums is the Gercian dress from Annee Matthew. The fabulous side ruching camoflages the tummy area while the A-cut skirt provides ample room for the hips area and a wonderful swishy movement. We love it! A simple crossover wrap detail to hide the nursing openings underneath. Accessorised with sparkly jewellery and a pashmina this is just perfect for special occasions. Available in navy, dark red and mauve.
