Discreet breastfeeding clothes

Breastfeeding without anyone noticing—that’s the idea behind our discreet nursing clothes. With two zippers on the sides, they’re worn just like regular clothes and can be opened with one hand when it’s time to nurse. More than 240 styles, ranging from about €20 to €86.

What makes a piece of nursing clothing discreet?

• the side slit, which doesn't expose the stomach or the décolletage;
• the fabric stays in place: there's nothing to lift or hold;
• The classic look: when zipped up, the zippers are barely noticeable;
• a garment that is opaque and has a cut that leaves nothing to the imagination.

How does the opening work?

You unzip the side on the feeding side with one hand, allowing your baby to latch on, while the rest of the garment stays in place. Since there’s a zipper on each side, you can easily switch breasts.

What clothes should you wear for breastfeeding in public?

A Breastfeeding t-shirt or a sweatshirt with jeans works anywhere. For a more elegant look, a Breastfeeding dress jacket with side zippers works from the café to the restaurant.

Choose a color or pattern that hides small milk stains.

Is it okay to breastfeed in public in France?

Yes, breastfeeding in public is a right. Choosing modest clothing simply allows you to feel comfortable, at your own pace, without having to isolate yourself if you don't want to.

What size should I choose?

Choose your usual pre-pregnancy size; if you're unsure, go with the larger size for a more comfortable fit. Some styles run small—this is noted in the product description.

Can you wear them during and after pregnancy?

Yes, many styles are designed to be comfortable for a rounded belly. When zipped up, they’re great to wear even after weaning and also make a lovely gift for an expectant or new mom.

How do you care for these clothes?

Wash them at 30 °C on the delicate cycle, inside out and with the zippers closed. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to dry. Specific instructions are listed on each product page.

How long does it take for the clothing to be shipped?

Clothing is shipped within 48 business hours. For items with custom embroidery, please allow up to about eight business days.

What is the return policy?

You have 14 days after receipt to request a refund for an item that does not meet your expectations; exchanges are not permitted. Personalized items with embroidery cannot be returned or refunded. Please contact our customer service team in advance at bonjour@23maiparis.com.
