Baby Shower

Soft light, pastel palettes, and a dress the bump deserves.

For the mom-to-be, the baby shower outfit is really a photoshoot outfit: a white lace or pastel midi that celebrates the bump, comfortable enough for two hours of hosting. Guests follow the palette — florals and pastels, nothing that outshines her — and everyone ends up in the group frame, so the invitation's color hint matters.

Set the photos where the light is: near a window, under the balloon garland, beside the dessert table. The mom-to-be seated with friends around her is the classic frame; take it early, before the gift wrap avalanche. Our Maternity edit covers the full bump-styling playbook.

Good questions

What should I wear to a baby shower?

Guests: florals and pastels in a midi or wrap dress — soft, seasonal, and never louder than the mom-to-be. Flats or low block heels; showers involve standing.

What should the mom-to-be wear to her baby shower?

A white lace or pastel maternity midi that celebrates the bump — fitted at the top, flowing below — with a flower crown or sash if the party leans playful. See our Maternity edit for the full styling brief.
