Suki Waterhouse Has Cool Mum Status Already
Suki Waterhouse, who rose to fame at the tender age of 16 for her modeling, acting, and musical talents, is not your typical mom. Being a celebrity means that she is not bound by conventional social norms. It was impressive to see her rock a glittery mini dress while proudly showcasing her baby bump at the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City. I wish someone at Vogue House would be as bold and confident as Suki!
Suki's disco outfit on stage reminds us of how Rihanna dressed when she was pregnant, wearing Dior slips that appeared transparent, bralettes from Coperni, and skirts adorned with crystals from Miu Miu. Remember seeing Sienna Miller at the 2023 Vogue World event wearing a bump-revealing dress from Schiaparelli? We get it, why bother buying clothes with stretchy waistbands when you can just unbutton your jeans and look effortlessly cool. However, these daring and stylish maternity outfits aren't easy to pull off when you're not a celebrity strutting the red carpet or performing at music festivals.
This is why Suki Waterhouse's recent appearance as a soon-to-be mom is so relatable and inspiring, even for those of us who can never experience pregnancy. Photos of her walking around Beverly Hills last week show her wearing a loose leather jacket, uniquely-patterned trousers, and a large leopard-print purse that could double as a baby bag. I don't have personal experience with dressing during pregnancy, but I believe that the best path is to stick to your own style and not change your relationship with fashion. For example, you might take inspiration from Suki and wear a trendy hat and comfortable pants, or follow Rihanna's lead with bold bodysuits.
