The royal family’s best maternity style moments, from Queen Elizabeth to Meghan Markle. 👑➡️
At this point, it’s a fact that the royals are style icons — and they have been for as long as the British monarchy has existed. Today, so many of us take inspiration for the trends that Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are wearing and even setting themselves, and that includes the times they’ve been pregnant. Even the royals’ maternity style has always been on point.
From the frequent polka-dot patterns that the Princess of Wales has worn through her three pregnancies to the more neutral, classic style that the Duchess of Sussex wore during her more public pregnancy with her oldest child, Archie, some of the royals’ best style moments have happened while they were showing off their baby bumps.
We can even go as far back as Princess Diana’s trend-setting maternity looks — they were all totally ’80s and totally perfect.
Ready to walk down royal pregnancy memory lane? Here are the family’s best maternity style moments.
Let’s take it all the way back to the early 1960s, when royal maternity style wasn’t quite as prolific as it is now. Still, the late Queen Elizabeth was sure to look her best when she was out and about, and here, she was just one month away from welcoming Prince Andrew. That coat and hat look adorable on her, and yes, that is the future King Charles walking with her (and her pup).
