Dressing a bump isnt easy. Any woman whos been there will tell you it raises a whole new set of sartorial dilemmas.
Our own Stacey Duguid has devoted herself to navigating these in her high street maternity blog, and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld is now dedicating herself to the cause with the launch of a new website, Romy and the Bunnies.
Some celebrities manage to make maternity dressing look like a stylish walk in the park, and Restoin-Roitfeld was one of them. Perma-glowing in heels, body-con dresses and empire cuts, she was a lesson in pregnant perfection. The tips and tricks she learned during her pregnancy with baby Romy - and those following the babys birth last May - form the basis of the new website, launched today.
During my pregnancy, I became obsessed and fascinated with anything related to maternity, explains Roitfeld, and then after my baby was born, I became obsessed with anything to do with babies.
So the website still in its early infancy will be populated with interviews with stylish mothers, weekly illustrations of Romy wearing an array of designer baby clothes, must-haves for the nursery and plenty of images of Restoin-Roitfeld herself looking like the paragon of motherly devotion.
I had so much fun enjoying my pregnancy, and now loving so much being a mother, that I wanted to share my experience, and future additional discoveries with other mothers and expecting mothers...always with a fashion edge!
