Help to find flattering dress to hide baby bump

[redwellybluewelly]

I will be 16weeks pg on Christmas Day, we have 4 parties/meals out to go to. We are not announcing the baby until the end of January (extra tests have to be run) and so I'd like to find a flattering dress which doesn't skim the tummy area.

So far I have stayed in my normal clothes, but my shape is changing. So many maternity clothes are designed to hug or enhance bumps, I have a few tunic dresses but they are everyday wear. I also have my maternity wardrobe from my first pg but if I wear any of it the secret is out!

I am tall, size 12/14 and like Seasalt/White Stuff - any ideas welcome

and be gentle, I have never posted here before!

Maybe a waterfall cardigan to disguise your profile? Or a nice scarf...

I do have a few nice scarves, and a waterfall cardigan - the only issue being that two of the meals are at houses where they are singlehandedly creating global warming don;t like to be cold. Cardigan might push me over the edge!

Maybe a short sleeved Waterfall cardigan with a pretty blouse?

I managed to hide mine quite well in regular clothing a size or two up. I wore a bright magenta wrap skirt with a loose drapey grey t shirt and a HUGE statement necklace... Anything to distract onlookers! Also heels will help as they alter your posture.

Black cigarette pants with a looser top may work too

Cos is the best place for bump hiding gear ime. This with black leggings like these maybe.
