What size should I buy?
- For Maternity Tops and Dresses
Mothers En Vogue’s maternity garments are designed to fit you from early pregnancy (from when you first start to show, probably around 16 weeks) through the full term of pregnancy and post-partum, until your body has fully recovered its pre-pregnancy form. Many of our designs are meant to be form fitting and by using versatile stretch fabrics, you will find that our garments grow with you, accommodating wherever you expand. Determine your top or dress size based on your current bust measurement. Measure around the fullest circumference of your bust and refer to the chart below to get the most accurate fit.
Mothers En Vogue size bust up to waist up to XS 34” 40” S 36” 42” M 38.5” 44.5” L 41” 47” XL 43.5” 49.5”
- For Maternity Bottoms
Measure you current hip size and then refer to the chart below for the corresponding MEV size.
Mothers En Vogue size hips up to XS 36” S 38” M 40.5” L 43” XL 46.5”
- For Nursing Tops and Dresses
Determine your top or dress size based on your current bust measurement. Measure around the fullest circumference of your bust and refer to the chart below to get the most accurate fit.
Mothers En Vogue size bust up to waist up to XS 34” 27” S 36” 29” M 38.5” 31.5” L 41” 34” XL 43.5” 36.5” - How to Measure Bra Size
First put on your favorite bra that you think makes your breasts the right shape and feels most comfortable. Next, using a flexible measuring tape, measure the circumference around your ribcage, just below your breasts. Now add 5 to this number to get your band size. If the resulting band size was an odd number, you will need to round up to the next even number since bra bands only come in even numbers.
The second measurement should be taken around the fullest part of your bosom with your favorite bra on. This measurement is your cup size. Next subtract your band size from your cup size to calculate the right cup size. Refer to the bra cup size chart below.

How do I know the clothes will look the same in person as they do on the computer screen?
We make every effort to ensure the accuracy of the product photos on our site. However, please note that colours can vary slightly from computer monitor to computer monitor.

Any special care required for the clothing?
For best results, follow the care instructions on the sewn-in label of the garment. Washing a garment in hot water and drying it with hot air increases shrinkage. Washing a garment in cold water and laying it flat to dry minimizes shrinkage.
