Maternity clothing is designed to provide as much comfort as possible to pregnant women. However, as a mother-to-be, it can be hard to find comfortable fabric that will stretch with your growing bump. One of the main things you want to look for is a fabric that stretches, so finding several different maternity pieces that are stretchy will be a game changer when thinking about what to wear during pregnancy and postpartum. In this blog post, we’ll share what to look for when shopping for comfortable, stretchy maternity and postpartum clothing.
Spandex
Spandex is an excellent stretchy fabric for maternity and postpartum clothing. Some benefits of spandex maternity clothing are that it fits like a glove, and is comfortable and flexible so there’s room for your growing belly. Because this fabric hugs your body, it provides a flattering silhouette and highlights your bump.
Micromodal Fabric
Micromodal is a specialized type of fabric known for its silkiness, softness, moisture-wicking, and shrinkage resistance fabric. How it’s produced allows it to stretch easily without losing shape, making it an ideal fabric for maternity and postpartum clothing. What’s also great about this type of fabric is that it doesn’t cause irritation or itchiness, so is great for women with sensitive skin. Micromodal clothing is not only long-lasting but washer and dryer-friendly too!
Polyester
Polyester fabric is known for its stretchability and flexibility, so as your body changes, this fabric will adjust with your changing body. Polyester can withstand heavy use and frequent washes without losing its color or shape. This feature guarantees that you will have clothing that lasts for the duration of your pregnancy and beyond.
