Summer is here and now is the perfect time to expand your maternity wardrobe. Dressing a growing bump is notoriously difficult in the heat, but luckily there are plenty of maternity brands making incredible clothes that fit pregnant ladies and we have rounded up high street looks from M&S, Mango, H&M and more.

Most of these looks can be worn post-birth too! Here's where you should head for the best summer maternity clothes including swimsuits and dresses...

ASOS

ASOS has possibly one of the largest maternity collections on the high street, and the offering is incredible. Forget elasticated waistbands and baggy t-shirts; here you can shop everything from summer dresses to chic jackets and bikinis. There’s also a great selection from brands, such as Chi Chi London and the North Face.

Seraphine

The Duchess of Cambridge loves this designer and has done ever since she was first pictured wearing a wrap dress from the brand during her pregnancy with Prince George. The clothes are beautifully made and perfect for smarter occasions.
