Just a few years ago, your options for being stylish while pregnant were pretty limited. Affordable maternity clothing was too dowdy, so you’d either have to spend big money for the fancy maternity brands or just hope you could squeeze into baggy “regular people” styles. Thank goodness the market for maternity wear has changed for the better. Today pregnant mamas have yet another place to get stylish, affordable maternity clothes: the newly launched Zappos Maternity.
“Zappos Maternity aims to empower women to feel confident and showcase their personal style throughout their pregnancy,” reads a press release from the online retailer, which has long been more than just a discount shoe source. To that end, the site isn’t just offering a new “maternity” tab, but also has created editorial content to help guide moms-to-be through this new adventure (I mean, you already have us, but a few more articles might be helpful!). Zappos has also selected a summer capsule collection, complete with tops, shorts, skirts, dresses, and accessories, that can all be mixed and matched with each other. If you’re buying a whole new wardrobe for your new body, you might as well plan it out cleverly.
Here are some of our favorite choices from Zappos Maternity, which are all available with free shipping.

Everly Grey Savannah Maternity/Nursing Dress
We love how versatile a good dress can be for all stages of pregnancy. This one will still look good after your baby has arrived, and it’s got buttons for easy nursing.
Stowaway Collection Over-Under Maternity Skirt
This animal print skirt employs one of the first lessons of maternity clothing: ruching is your friend. That gathering on the side emphasizes your amazing curves as the front of the skirt can either fit over or under your growing belly.
Madewell Over-the-Belly Denim Shorts
Styled with a billowing summer shirt, these shorts look deceptively like your pre-maternity wear. We won’t tell anyone if you keep wearing them after the belly’s gone!
Ingrid & Isabel Maternity Scoop-Neck Tank
A tank-top like this is going to get you through a lot of summer days. On those days when you really don’t feel like trying, you still look like you did.
Everly Grey Valeria Maternity Dress
Having a baby is no picnic, but this dress might make you feel like it’s a trip to a tropical isle. Or, well, at least you’ll feel comfortable and gorgeous.
Ingrid & Isabel Leopard-Print Dress
You absolutely deserve to look sexy when you’re pregnant, even if you’re not going to a party anytime soon. It works for Zoom parties, too.
Everly Grey Analise Maternity/Nursing Mommy & Me Five-Piece PJ Set
We recommend getting someone to give this matching set to you as a baby shower gift. But if they don’t, go ahead and indulge — there’s a tank top, pants, and robe for you; and a romper and cap for baby.
Modern Eternity Ciara 3-in-1 Waterproof Maternity Windbreaker
At first sight, this is just a cute windbreaker. Then you realize it has a magical, removable panel that lets you wear it while pregnant; while carrying a wee one in front; and while free of baby — in or out!
Modern Eternity Four-Way Stretch Maternity Denim in Medium Blue
Why aren’t all jeans as comfortable and flattering as a really good pair of maternity jeans like these? The secret is in that jersey belly panel.
Belly Bandit Thighs Disguise Maternity Support Shorts
We don’t think you need to “disguise” your thighs or make your belly flatter, of course. These shorts help you with chafing on hot days. After the baby’s born, support like this can make your shrinking belly more comfortable too.
Ingrid & Isabel Maternity Active Leggings
Not to be confused with the leggings you will be sitting around in every other minute of the day, these are active leggings. Those zippy chevron details make all the difference in getting you off the couch.
NOM Maternity Pia Maternity Top
This floral top reminds you of your blooming self, while that tie on the side helps you adjust it as you grow. This will work perfectly as a nursing top, too.
Angel Maternity I Think I Might Be Pregnant Shirt
Some people think seeing a pregnant person gives them the right to make comments about you. Cut them off with a cheeky shirt like this.
NOM Maternity Corsica Maternity Pants
Here’s another item we’d likely keep into our kids’ toddler years, because it doesn’t scream “maternity.” They’re 100 percent rayon and perfect for work or slow strolls around the neighborhood.
Angel Maternity Linen Shirt & Skirt
If you’re still heading into an office, this two-piece set is a nice addition to your closet. If you’re not, it’s not too buttoned-up for a casual day at home.
Prego Maternity Wear Dot Twist Tankini
You can flaunt that bump all you want this summer. But for the times when you’re not into letting those UV rays near your belly, this tankini offers good coverage without being too modest.
Cake Maternity Sugar Candy Fuller Bust Seamless Nursing Bra
Ignore for a second how deliciously named this bra is. The point is actually that you can have your support, and go underwireless too.
