Sonam Kapoor’s Pregnancy Style Is Changing the Way We View Maternity Clothing

Sonam Kapoor is a trendsetter in many spheres of life; therefore, you can depend on her. Ahead of giving birth to her first child with husband Anand Ahuja, the 36-year-old actor, whose pet peeve is giving in to normalcy rather than doing things her way, has already made headlines.

While Rihanna has been breaking the conventions of pregnant clothing on the other side of the Atlantic, Sonam has been rewriting the rules with her bump-forward style. She’s not hiding her pregnancy; she’s celebrating it, and her preferred tool is fashion.

Whether they are mothers or fashion icons, we prefer and believe it is important to honor women who do things their way. So, in honor of Mother’s Day, we’re reliving some of the pregnant actress Sonam Kapoor’s best wardrobe choices, which have encouraged many women to show off their bumps.

The leotard that announced the pregnancy

The best way to inform the world of your news is up to you. Sonam’s growing baby bulge, visible through her full-sleeve leotard, was a sign of both new life and the stylish maternity fashions that would soon follow.

The Undressed for Business

Sonam’s costume of choice for the opening of the new Veg NonVeg store was drawstring pants, a matching blazer, and a white camisole. We adore the sophisticated yet understated style. If you concentrate, you can make out a resurrected personalized necklace.

The Vivacious Indian Style

Sonam Kapoor wore a draped skirt set with a pearl-lined hem and a one-shoulder top to honor designer Abu Jani’s birthday, drawing inspiration from Zeenat Aman’s costume from the 1978 film Satyam Shivam Sundaram and from the 90s mythological television shows that were popular at the time. What’s more, even from Sonam herself, this was a daring look we had never seen before.

The interchangeable kaftan

With this transparent kaftan from the Moroccan brand FIL DE VIE, Sonam gave the modest kaftan a bump-forward makeover. She wore it with nothing more than a black textured balconette bra underneath, inspiring women everywhere, whether or not they are expecting.
