Here, L'OFFICIEL looks back at the best pregnancy fashion from our favorite supermodels.
Gigi Hadid
One word to describe former Hadid's maternity style? Casual. Since she was pregnant in 2020, aka the early days of the pandemic, it only makes sense that her style would take a more laid-back and comfortable approach. Even in sweatpants, crop tops, and a mix of bodycon and flowy dresses, Hadid nailed the pregnant model-off-duty look. But of course, for her maternity shoot, she brought the glam and opted for form-fitting and sheer garments to show off her belly bump.
Elsa Hosk
Former Victoria's Secret Angel Elsa Hosk is another model who nailed her maternity style. Hosk's wardrobe choices remained largely unaffected by pregnancy as she continued to wear bodycon dresses, oversized blazers, and skinny black pants. She remained at the forefront of fashion trends while dressing her baby bump, with one particularly memorable outfit combining a Burberry trenchcoat, blue leggings, and New Balance shoes.
Kate Moss
We all know that '90s supermodel Kate Moss has perfect off-duty looks. Yet, there is no doubt that pregnancy style contributed to her style icon status. From colorful dresses that beautifully complimented her changing figure to more casual layering for everyday excursions, Moss always ensured that she stepped out in a chic outfit—carrying her baby bump and, of course, a matching handbag.
Candice Swanepoel
There is no better supermodel to show off a flowy, summer maternity dress than Candice Swanepoel. During her pregnancy, she wore long dresses and flowy pants in a myriad of colors and styles. From an off-the-shoulder bohemian print dress to an asymmetrical blue one, these garments look stylish, cool, and ultra-comfortable.
Emily Ratajkowski
Emily Ratajkowski isn't afraid to wear outfits that show a little midriff, giving us a maternity-friendly bump reveal. When dressing casually, sweatpants and an oversized blazer seemed to be her go-to, and when dressing formally, she has been spotted wearing knee-high Stuart Weitzman boots.
Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham champions the confidence behind maternity dressing. As an expectant mother, she continued to put on seductive figure-hugging outfits and statement pieces, showcasing that pregnancy did not change her style profile. From a berry-toned latex dress to an autumnal sweater dress two-piece, Graham really did it all—in heels nonetheless.
Adwoa Aboah
British model Adwoa Aboah reveled her pregnancy at the 2024 Met Gala. Stepping onto the red carpet, she wore a custom H&M look that bared her baby bump for the first time. The model layered the ruffled crop top with a matching red bubble skirt that drew all attention to her beautiful baby bump.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
The effortlessly stylish Rosie Huntington-Whiteley knows fashion. If you follow the model's Instagram, you'll know that she has a clean, refined taste for every outfit and is mostly dressed in black, white, or nude tones. Both times she was pregnant she continued sporting her luxe, minimal style—most notably wearing several long bodycon dresses in black and white, along with boots or heels. As they say, less is more.
Behati Prinsloo
Namibian supermodel and wife of singer Adam Levine, Behati Prinsloo also paid special attention to her pregnancy style. Unafraid and daring in her style choices, Prinsloo wore dresses with stripes and prints, showing that bold statement pieces can beautifully highlight a baby bump.
Miranda Kerr
Miranda Kerr, who has consistently ranked on the Forbes list of highest-earning models since 2008, has a sense of playfulness in her style. From polka dots and floral print dresses to leather jackets, Kerr enjoys an eclectic yet bold mix of garments. While bearing her bump, she continued wearing short dresses and skinny jeans, showing off those incredibly long legs.
