Bump Fashion: Duster Coats

By Samantha Jong
April 5, 2017

The duster coat never fails to provide a polished finish to outfits, and they come in a wide variety of colours and textures, so there’s always one that will match your outfit! Mums have been utilising its versatility to dress their baby bumps up and it has very much become a wardrobe staple for many fashion-savvy mums. The coat’s long, loose silhouette helps to streamline your figure and make you seem taller.

Former Hills star Whitney Port used a navy blue shimmery midi-length duster coat to glam up her look when she wore it over a neutral coloured flower-printed dress and nude heels.

The duster coat can also be used to slim the figure down and add a pop of colour to an otherwise bland neutral coloured outfit. Rosie Huntington-Whitely adopts a safari look and hides her baby bump with a dark coloured ensemble and camel coloured duster coat. She hasn’t let pregnancy hold her back and looks absolutely stunning.

Pair this super versatile piece with a newsboy cap and coloured knee-high boots, and you won’t be out of place on the streets of Paris.

Wear it in muted tones to exude a feminine vibe.

If you are daring like Chrissy Teigen, go bold and wear everything in the same colour, from your duster coat right down to your nails and shoes!

Duster coats aren’t just for Spring or Fall. It can be worn over shorts and a simple tank top.

It goes well with leggings too when you are out running errands.

Always ensure that whatever you’re wearing under your duster coat fits just right so your frame won’t be overwhelmed.

When in doubt, you can always go back to basics with a white top and dark bottoms, just like Amal Clooney.

Go for bolder colours when you pair them with neutral coloured togs to add a fun touch to your outfit.
