Baby Shower Outfits

What should I wear to a baby shower?

Baby shower outfits really depend on what kind of party you're walking into. Some are backyard BBQ vibes while others are full garden party with cocktails and catering. As a guest, floaty midi dresses in pastels or soft florals are perfect, and a white baby shower dress or pink number always looks stunning in photos. If you're the mum-to-be, comfort is non-negotiable! Wrap styles, knit and anything with stretch let you show off your bump beautifully while actually enjoying the party. The dress code for a baby shower typically hovers around smart-casual (unless the invite specifies otherwise), so think somewhere between Sunday brunch and wedding guest. Soft colours and flowy fabrics will have you looking gorgeous all afternoon long.

What are the best baby shower dress styles?

For expectant mums, maternity baby shower dresses with empire waists or stretchy fabrics keep you comfortable without sacrificing style. Wrap dresses, smock styles and ruching around the belly area are all flattering options. A blue baby shower dress feels sweet and classic if you're having a boy, while pink baby shower dresses lean into that soft, feminine vibe. Neutrals like white or beige work for any gender reveal situation. 

How do I choose a baby shower outfit as a guest?

A dress for baby shower occasions in soft florals or pastels is always a winner, but if you want to stand out a bit, a fitted midi in a jewel tone looks incredible in photos. Fit-and-flare styles are universally flattering and give you that effortless party-ready energy. Slip dresses layered with a cardigan or blazer feel polished without being uptight. Outdoor or backyard venue? A flowy maxi with sandals keeps you comfortable while still looking put-together. Restaurant or garden party setting? A tea-length dress with kitten heels brings just the right amount of polish. Throw on your favourite jewellery, grab a cute bag and you're good to RSVP Yes.
