One of the best things about being pregnant in the summer? Flaunting that awesome preggo bod and not stressing about a couple extra lumps and bumps. Seriously. Pregnancy is the one time in a woman’s life when people will tell you how fantastic you look and they’re not just saying it—they mean it. Especially as my pregnancy wore on and jeans started getting tighter and tighter, wearing cute summer dresses was my favorite way to feel flirty and feminine.

Uncompromisingly chic, yet still comfortable and flattering, these are the best maternity dresses to get you through the summer. A few tips? Look for dresses made of “breathable” materials like cotton jersey or lycra, and don’t be afraid to try styles similar to what you wore before you were pregnant.
