So, to help you out, we’ve compiled a list of our favourite postpartum clothing brands.
The best postpartum dresses – Lyla & Leche
If you’re looking for breastfeeding friendly dresses, look no further than Lyla & Leche. Think delicate dresses with handy zips on the front. These are some of the most flattering postpartum dresses made for nursing you can find.
The added bonus with Lyla & Leche postpartum dresses is that they don’t cost the earth. You can snap up one of their breastfeeding wedding guest dresses for around £60. That’s a bargain when it comes to breastfeeding friendly clothes.

The best postpartum clothing brand for comfy postpartum clothes – Beyond Nine
Again and again Beyond Nine comes up trumps with their maternity friendly clothing that doubles up as your postpartum wardrobe. The brand caters for all but can be worn by expectant mothers well into their fortieth week and beyond.
The brand's jumpsuits can’t be faulted. You can tell when something’s the real deal by how it holds its price on Vinted. And Beyond Nine’s clothes really hold their value on Vinted.
You can snap up a stretchy but flattering jumpsuit which is also breastfeeding friendly for around £90. It’s well worth the money, trust me.

The best brand for swimsuits for a postpartum body - Bravissimo
Not typically associated with nursing, Bravissimo's swimwear collection works well for new nursing mothers.
When you're looking for swimsuits for a postpartum body, you're likely looking for a one piece with a little tummy control. You'll also be needing to find something that supports a larger bust.
That's where Bravissimo comes in. Handily, they've created a collection on their website to help you filter out the wheat from the chaff. There are dozens and dozens of swimsuits ideal for postpartum and nursing to choose from.

The best clothing brand to find affordable postpartum wear - Juno Jacks
Juno Jacks doesn't just offer children's clothing. This was news to me when I first started my breastfeeding journey. While they do offer some fantastic twinning sets, their USP is actually clothing for breastfeeding.
The range of tops, jumpers, dresses and jumpsuits all designed with breastfeeding in mind is second to none. There's no extra cost added unlike at H&M with their bump friendly jeans.
And what makes Juno Jacks even better is that the items aren't frumpy or obviously nursing friendly clothing. You'll be able to wear the clothes for years afterwards. With the prices and choice on offer, it's hard to beat this affordable postpartum wear brand.

The best postpartum clothing brand for nursing essentials - Boob Design
The range on offer at Boob Design is huge. They offer all the clothing essentials you'll need when nursing. And whatever you're looking for, they'll probably have it in at least five different colours.
Boob Design has been around for 25 years, so they really know their stuff when it comes to catering for the postpartum body. This isn't where you go for fancy wedding guest dresses, this is where you go for your nursing bras, tank tops and thermal vests.
The prices are reasonable and the clothes are good quality, what's not to like?!
