Sales of maternity apparels has gained momentum amid social media influence, celebrity endorsements, and introduction of new fashion trends through magazines and television.
Clothing brands such as Zara has joined the growing list of high street and online retailers attempting to capitalize on increasing demand for maternity apparels. For instance, Zara recently launched its first maternity collection comprising 25 dedicated maternity items such as sweaters, knitted dresses, jeans and overall. These products can be styled with other clothing offered by Zara which are either bump-friendly, oversized or made from stretchy materials.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted dampened sales of maternity apparels to an extent. Demand for maternity clothing, which typically targeted working professionals in metropolitan workplaces and/or those getting ready for a big night out – came to a halt, with lockdowns implemented around the world and pregnant women increasingly preferring loungewear in place of high street maternity fashion trends.
Customer spending on clothing dropped by more than half in major markets such as the U.S., the U.K., and Germany. Maternity apparel platforms faced dwindling demand as pregnant women began working from home and events like weddings and celebrations were either postponed, cancelled, or held virtually. However, with resumption of trade activities and the introduction of new retail channels for maternity clothing, sales are expected to recover over the forecast period.
Besides this, increasing preference for luxury maternity apparel among millennial moms is ushering product developments in the maternity apparels market. The influx of high street maternity styles is compelling brands and specialist retailers to step-up their game and send a clear message about the value in investing in more expensive, technical maternity and nursing clothing.
