WHAT TO WEAR TO A BABY SHOWER

Ahhh, baby shower outfits. Cute in theory but sometimes tricky to nail depending on the venue. Don't worry though, our handy guide includes baby-shower outfit ideas for guests and glowing parents-to-be. Keep scrolling for our very own little bundles of (wardrobe) joy. 

POV: it's the middle of summer and the only reasonable place to throw a shower is in a garden or park. It's time to lean into the sun-soaked season and serve up some seriously good looks with garden party dresses from Vero Moda and Mango. Extra points for summer prints and pops of colour.

If the celebration is over a mid-morning meal, let us do what we do best and find you a brunch outfit, whether you're the mum-to-be, a close friend or a family member. To earn that best-dressed guest accolade, opt for a statement hue and a silhouette that works day-to-night. For the expecting, soft pastels and soft knits keep the look cool and comfy. Pair with flats, trainers or a small heel – the dress will work with them all.

Just because you're celebrating at home doesn't mean you can't look cute. Co-ords are the answer for low-key get-togethers, and we love the mix-and-match vibe for endless outfit options, too.

If we're talking picnics, it should come as no surprise that prints are front and centre. They're a summertime staple, and when baby showers enter the mix? Chef's kiss. Choose from long and flowing options for maximum coverage or a tea dress to catch some rays while you celebrate.

Turn to something a little more glam for a dinner party, whether it's a catered affair or at a restaurant. For mums-to-be, a fitted silhouette makes things feel more formal, and the diagonal monochrome pattern on this dress will flatter from every angle. A satin slip dress is always a good choice, and this Topshop one is in the season's most-wanted hue: butter yellow. You really can't go wrong.

A night away with your girls to celebrate your new addition means one thing – slumber party! You sort the baby games and the snacks, we'll sort the looks. And if it's an overnight stay, you know that means cute pyjamas. If you're a guest, get into a cute set with embroidered florals, and if you're the star of the celebrations, a fun print like this avocado toast motif is a must.
