Pregnancy is a journey, and moms-to-be need to have a style that evolves with it, not disappears. The right maternity wardrobe works as hard as expectant mothers do, seamlessly transitioning from professional settings to casual weekend plans.
Avishag Arbel, a designer of maternity wear since 2004, creates pieces that celebrate the pregnant form while prioritizing comfort and fashion-forward design. Founded by a mother of three, this brand understands that pregnancy demands versatility without compromising personal style.

Office attire during pregnancy requires strategic wardrobe choices that balance professionalism with the changing needs of your body. The Linen Maternity Blazer makes a statement with its classic and tailored look, created with airy, light, and soft linen-like fabric, perfect for the transition season and summer months. Pair with the Zoey Maternity pants, featuring a striped print, side pockets, and a wide elastic waistband for a perfect fit.
The magic of pregnancy workwear lies in its ability to grow with you while maintaining structure. The Dorian Velvet Maternity Pants offer sophistication through their luxurious fabric, while their expert cut allows for a comfortable fit as your bump expands. The Summer Maternity Pants, on the other hand, offer a loose and flattering fit, featuring side pockets and a rubber belt at the back. They are recommended to be paired with a Donna blazer for a classic and timeless look.
Weekend Ready: Casual Comfort with Style

Weekends demand outfits that prioritize comfort without sacrificing style. The Mary Maternity Jeans represent the pinnacle of pregnancy denim, structured enough to maintain shape yet comfortable enough for all-day wear. This flattering cut works beautifully with the Oxford Maternity Shirt for a laid-back yet put-together weekend look.
“Maternity clothes should be a continuation of the clothes we wear daily and reflect our personality and personal taste,” states Avishag Arbel, capturing the philosophy behind her designs. This mindset shines through in versatile pieces like the Kelly Maternity Blouse, crafted with a button-down, sleeveless, flowy cut, a masculine collar, and a floral print. For warmer days, the collection of Waffle Maternity Shorts provides comfort with waffle fabric, elastic, and a drawstring.
Day-to-Night Versatility

Pregnancy demands clothing that transitions effortlessly between various settings and occasions. The Anna Maternity Skirt in Dark Blue Wash serves as the ultimate day-to-night piece – professional enough for the office with a blazer, yet stylish enough for evening gatherings when accessorized differently. The thoughtful design celebrates rather than conceals your pregnancy, with cuts that flatter your changing silhouette.

For an elegant maxi evening dress, the Monica Lace Maternity Dress is the right one. Made of black lace fabric, with Spaghetti straps, it offers a precise and flattering cut, also can be perfectly paired with a blazer for a more professional look .
Avishag Arbel designs for the modern pregnant woman who refuses to compromise her style identity. Beyond individual pieces, the brand curates looks that work harmoniously together, allowing for maximum versatility with minimal closet space. With fabrics specifically selected to accommodate the unique demands of pregnancy, these pieces grow with you throughout those nine transformative months.
The real beauty of Avishag Arbel’s designs lies in their thoughtful construction, with each garment featuring specialized pregnancy patents that make them perfect not just during pregnancy but also during those early postpartum months. This attention to the full journey of motherhood creates investment pieces that deliver style and comfort when your body needs them most.
