Yesterday’s (2 May 2016) Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology themed gala was, as we expected, filled with beautiful gowns galore! But what really caught our attention here at Mummyfique were the budding baby bumps of these actresses (including of course, Scandal star Kerry Washington who only just announced her pregnancy), all of whom, coincidentally, are expecting baby number two! Don’t they just look resplendent with?

Having just announced her pregnancy not too long ago, the second time mummy-to-be stunned in a custom blush pink silk organza Burberry caped gown, with a corset top and A-line skirt, accented with hand-dyed and sewn perspex petals. We love how her gown matches the pink of the carpet!

Wearing a fitted blue custom sapphire sequined piece by Michael Kors, the figure hugging gown accentuated Emily’s baby bump perfectly. She finished off the look with a silver clutch and subtle bling.

Dressed to the nines in a custom-made Michael Kors piece as well, Wilde showed off her baby bump in a body-skimming, black stone-embroidered halter gown, topped off with dark nails and a dark smoky eye — smoking we say!

The Scandal star debuted her baby bump mere hours after confirming her pregnancy with hubby Nnamdi Asomugha in this black sequined Marc Jacobs couture piece. Carefully cradling her precious baby bump, whe finished off the look with long lace gloves and magenta highlights.
