This Brand Just Announced A +Size Maternity Line
Cute maternity clothing has definitely become more and more readily available for straight size moms-to-be, with fast fashion brands like Topshop and H&M offering stylish, on trend, and, most importantly, budget-friendly options for women who are expecting. But British brand Yours Clothing has just joined the game with its new plus size maternity clothing capsule collection, just in time for spring and now available to shop online. And thankfully, it ships internationally, too.
Since maternity clothing is made specifically for pregnant bodies, it should only follow that curvy future mothers would need maternity lines just as much as their straight size peers. Although cute plus maternity options are available if you delve deep, the plus size community has been asking bigger names in the plus industry to create a maternity line that's both fashionable and inexpensive.
Running from sizes 14 to 30, with the cheapest basic tank running at only $13 and the most expensive lace dress coming in at $63, Yours Clothing is showing other plus size brands how maternity clothing should be done. The collection is a varied sample of the items that are staple to an expectant mom's wardrobe, like comfortable jersey leggings, fashionable trousers and cardigans, and lace dresses that are perfect for any night out. Plus, there's a cute pregnancy joke tee, because you just have to, right?

This simple but elegant dress can be used for more than one occasion during your pregnancy. It's basically the little black dress for the expecting mom.

The collection also offers more casual looks, for the fatshionistas who are more focused on leisure than glitz and glam.
Hopefully this capsule collection is the first of many for Yours Clothing, especially considering it's been so well received by the plus size community. The Curvy Fashionista even listed the launch in its "Must Read Plus Size Fashion News" column. This step forward both for fatshion as a whole and for maternity wear is one that coincides perfectly with Tess Holliday's second pregnancy announcement earlier this year.
With Holliday as an example of how to be fat, pregnant, and super fashionable, the release of this line is a great way for other plus size women who are looking to retain their style throughout their pregnancy to be able to do so.

Hopefully Yours Clothing is paving the way for other plus size fashion brands by showcasing the importance of releasing maternity-wear. All plus size pregnant babes deserve just as much choice and style as their straight size counterparts.
