Finding your best style and size can be challenging, especially if you are expecting. To help, we offer a selection of Maternity Styles designed with extra room in the waist and belly to accommodate your changing body.
You can order Maternity Styles in either standard or custom sizing. However, if you want more flexibility, especially if this is your first pregnancy or if you'll be very far along at the time of the wedding, standard sizing may be the better option since it is returnable, while custom sizing is not.
Standard Sizing
To determine your best size, measure your bust, under bust, and hips and compare them to our maternity size chart, found on every dress's order page.
Tip: If your measurements fall between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size and having it altered closer to your event. This ensures comfort and a flattering fit as your body changes.
Custom Sizing
If you want to custom order one of our Maternity Styles, you will need to provide us with your current bust, under bust, belly, hips, and hollow to floor measurements at checkout.
You can find instructions for measuring most of these measurements in the video on our size chart page but for the under bust and belly, you'll follow these instructions:
| Under Bust | Wearing a good fitting bra, measure around your under bust using the bottom of your bra as a guide. Make sure the tape is level. Keep it slightly loose for comfort. |
| Around Belly | Pull the tape around the fullest part of waist, keep it slightly loose for comfort. |
You do not need to add anything extra to your measurements for these styles but if you would like some added wiggle room to be safe, you may add an additional 0.25 - 0.5 inches (0.5-1.25cm) to your bust, under bust, belly, and hip measurements for some added wiggle room but because of the pattern for these styles, the skirts will have extra room built in automatically.
Please keep in mind that if you plan to order a Non-Maternity Style (anything not found here) you will need to follow our custom sizing guidelines under the Non-Maternity Styles FAQ here.
