Celebrity moms are just like all other moms, right? Not quite. Unlike with real moms, there is a pressure for celebrity moms and moms-to-be to dress to perfection all the time. After all, the last thing you want is a paparazzi to snap an unflattering photo for the media to critique. Lucky for them, most celebrity moms nail maternity fashion, giving mere mortals something to aspire to. That's especially true when it comes to the most flattering celeb maternity looks of all time.
Given the life of a celebrity — walks down the Red Carpet to nights at after parties to trips to the frozen yogurt shop — celebrity moms-to-be need their maternity wardrobe to be stylish as well as varied. And it seems no matter what they're dressing for, these celebrity moms always do it right. Not only does this give real moms something to aspire to, but it also makes them grateful that, for them, yoga pants and baggy sweatshirts are a totally acceptable option.
The following celebrity moms prove that you can rock flattering, fashionable looks whenever your little heart desires — especially when pregnant. And although you may not have an occasion for which to wear custom couture anytime soon, these eminently flattering looks prove that maternity style doesn't ever have to be dowdy.
