Pregnancy is perhaps one of the most beautiful moments of a woman’s life, that graceful bump filled with the promise of wondrous things. Yet when it comes to finding prémaman garments that are equally as graceful, there seems to be very little to choose from: it is either the tasteless (and shapeless) lycra dresses, or the oversized-flimsy-top-and-jeans outfits which make you look twice as large (and twice as badly dressed).

Milan-based Le Troisieme Songe has created a scrumptious collection of maternity wear that would be fit for Mdm Jacqueline O. herself. Conceived by architect Maria Cristina Codecasa Conti, her small atelier creates threads designed to refinedly accentuate the femininity of pregnancy through impeccable cuts and couture quality materials. In an era of mass-production and globalization, Le Troisieme Songe distinguishes itself by its artisanal savoir-faire and exclusivity without the excessive price tag. Offering a truly refreshing concept to all mothers-to-be seeking to exude simple sophistication.
