🔄 Nursing clothes: which models for which body type?

Because we're all different, it's essential to choose nursing clothes that are adapted to your morphology. Whether you're A-shaped, O-shaped, large, small or in between sizes, here are the styles that will make you look your best while making breastfeeding easier.

1. A-shaped body (shoulders narrower than hips)

Best of all :

• Flowing tops with shoulder details (ruffles, light epaulets)
• Empire or trapeze dresses

Avoid :

• Tight-fitting stockings without structure
• Figure-hugging, thin-strap tops

2. H-shaped body (slight waist)

Best of all :

• Fitted tops below the bust
• Belted jackets or cardigans
• T-shirt dresses with discreet opening

Avoid :

• Very straight cuts that lack femininity
• Too many layers that weigh down the figure

3. O-shaped body (generous curves, rounder belly)

Best of all :

• Asymmetrical tunics
• Lightweight, breathable fabrics
• V-neck or wrap-around necklines

Avoid :

• Tops that are too tight or very flared (parachute effect)
• Very tight sleeves

4. X or 8 body (marked size)

Best of all :

• Belted or wrap dresses
• Slim-fitting tops with zipper access or wrap-around sleeves
• High-waisted skirts or pants with soft elastic band

Avoid :

• Straight or shapeless cuts that hide your natural silhouette

5. Small or large silhouettes

• Petite: opt for short cuts, open necklines and fine prints.
• Large: you can play with volumes, superimpositions and visible details (zips, pockets...).
