    I have a shirt question for you Darlene: do you know what material a ‘soft’ button down shirt would be made from? I.e. softer than cotton, something really drapey but still a collared, button down. Because I want one… no idea where to find one. Same old story 🙂

      Do you mean more a soft-hand like a crepe de chine?
      One of the first I found has a stand collar but you get the idea http://www.lastcall.com/p/Rachel-Zoe-Miley-Print-Crepe-de-Chine-Blouse-Ivory/prod14820003/

      But there are some nameless poly blends for cheaper you just need to look around. I think Modcloth might have a few.

        Hi Katie,

        Yes like that material, but not so sheer. I’ll have a look at Modcloth 🙂

    Rayon (including bamboo rayon) can be really soft and drapey, although the chemicals used to convert the wood to fabric aren’t environmentally friendly. Tencel is supposed to have an environmentally friendly way of doing this (something about a closed system where the waste water is reused, I think). I don’t know if they’re just knits or if they also have wovens. I’ll keep my eyes open for something else.

I find that actual maternity fashion is pathetically ill-fitting on a full bust (logic??? 🤔), so you’re better off with the dedicated brands we already know and love. Swipe to check out the amazing structure inside these fabulous bikinis!
