I had a request off a client who recently had a gorgeous baby girl and found it challenging to find tops that are stylish and allow breastfeeding. Do such tops exist?
I am always on a look out for clothes that allow breast-feeding (anything with buttons usually, but maternity brands as such I found very unstylish)…dresses, nice T-shirts etc., sporty elegant also suitable for work on a casual day. Preferably natural fibres. (I’ve spent too much time in white cotton T-shirts which is now way overstretched:)!
I hope this gives you a bit of an idea.
Thanks again and I look forward to receive your suggestions.
I would love to help my client and other woman out there, like her, who also find it challenging to find stylish breast feeding tops. I have put together a list of my 5 most stylish breast feeding tops that I think are great purchases for breast feeding mumma’s out there.
If you have at least 5 breast feeding tops that you love, and make you feel great, it will be so much easier to get dressed in the mornings!
1. SABA – The Little Karlie Cardigan
This gorgeous cardigan is also a top, it has a closure on the shoulder to create a cowl neck top. It is great for layering with your breastfeeding cami’s and it comes in a few colours and also a longer length.
2. Ripe Maternity Asymmetric Nursing Top
This classic dressy top is great for those rare nights out ;-). You can add your personal style through colour and texture with a statement necklace.
3. David Jones Nursing Top
This is a great smart/casual knit top with a chiffon under layer that you can dress up with a pair of black skinny jeans and statement wedges or down with blue denim and tan leather sandals. I am a huge fan of knitwear, especially because there is no ironing involved!
4. Birds Nest Boho Birds Crossing Plain Sweater
This one oozes cosy! It’s a fab turtle neck knit which is great for the cooler weather.
5. Sportsgirl Wrap Front Tee
This is an easy every day basic t-shirt which is awesome for breastfeeding. It is great for every day wear.
Other fab breast feeding tops include:
- Off the shoulder tops – especially awesome if you’re into the peasant/ folk fashion trend
- Zip opening tops
- Button openings in tops
- Wrap Styles in stretch fabric, great for breast feeding mamma’s with a large bust
Be sure to let me know if you have come across any other breast feeding tops that you love so I can check it out.
If you have any particular requests please email me as I would love to help!
Thanks,
