Clothes to disguise my expanding bump

I have a job interview next week and for a variety of good reasons I don't want to let now I'm pregnant...the issue being I'm 24 weeks pregnant!

I'm looking for maternity clothes which fit but don't obviously look like maternity wear! I'm realistic that I won't look like a slim size 8 but just need to not obviously look pregnant! Help! Any suggestions?
I've looked at jojo mama, gap etc but everything looks like maternity wear which was make bump obvious.

An open suit jacket and a long scarf.

This jacket with a scarf?

I find empire line dresses make my bump less obvious but not sure if you could find one smart enough for a interview

I'm 24 weeks and work still don't know, wearing trousers with shirts, swing dresses (although I feel these look quite maternity) and as someone else has said, long scarves are your friend! Also a giant handbag.

I'd wear a non-maternity blazer open, then a scarf and white maternity shirt (maybe this, or non maternity if you can get away with it), And under bump trousers as I think bumps look smaller in these cf over bump. Mamas and papas have a sale on, and asos are usually good on price (plus free returns iirc).

For a long time, I wore my old suits with an elastic band threaded through the button hole and then over the button to give myself a few extra inches.

Shirt/top un-tucked to cover the gap, jacket open and a scarf?
