BREASTFEEDING CLOTHES

At 23 Mai Paris, nursing clothes are designed for moms who want to breastfeed easily without compromising their style: T-shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts, tank tops, dresses, and pajamas—all featuring two side zippers that can be opened with one hand. This collection includes more than 100 styles, ranging in price from approximately €20 to €86.

What is nursing clothing?

It looks like an ordinary piece of clothing, with an opening on each side of the chest. You unzip the side you’re nursing from, your baby can latch on, and the rest of the garment stays in place: no fabric to lift, no neckline to pull down.

Once the zippers are zipped up, the garment can be worn just like any other, both during pregnancy and after breastfeeding.

What types of clothing are there?

• the Breastfeeding t-shirtsplain, printed, or customizable;
• the Breastfeeding sweaters and sweatshirts, for winter;
• nursing tank tops, for summer and as a base layer;
• the Breastfeeding dresses, made of knit, cotton, or with straps;
• the Breastfeeding pyjamas and nightgowns, for bedtime.

How does the opening work?

You can use the zippers with one hand while holding your baby with the other. Since there's a zipper on each side, you can easily switch breasts without taking off the garment.

How many pieces of nursing clothing should you plan to have?

For a basic wardrobe, plan on four to six tops (T-shirts and tank tops), one or two sweaters or sweatshirts, one or two dresses, and two sets of pajamas or nightgowns. Milk leaks and spit-ups often mean you’ll need to change clothes.

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 on the product page). The product pages list the model's size and height.

Returns are accepted only as refunds; exchanges are not available: please check your size before ordering.

Can you customize a piece of clothing?

Yes, many styles can be embroidered with the text of your choice. The options are listed on each product page. A personalized item is made to order: it requires additional time to produce and cannot be returned or refunded.

Can you wear them during pregnancy?

Yes, many styles are designed to be comfortable for a rounded belly, and some dresses are labeled as pregnancy-friendly. You’ll get the hang of the zippers before your first feedings.

Can you wear them after breastfeeding?

Yes. With the zippers closed, these are classic pieces of clothing that you'll keep long after weaning. They also make a lovely gift for an expectant or new mom.

How do you care for your nursing 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.
