Hmmmm, based on my experience, I don't remember all the big smiles during this phase of life. "Coming Attraction-The Pants Pace", sorry kid, you thought that YOU were the "coming attraction". Nope, you're second fiddle to the fashion! Also note the footnote at the bottom "Order you're normal size, we'll allow for expansion". Oh, so your're going to EXPAND! Okay, nobody mentioned THAT !!
Just because you are in that "special time" doesn't mean you can't enjoy the summertime fun in your swimsuit!
A Nice Time For Getting Dressed Up? Okay, I THINK that there may be something more pressing already?!??! Still these ladies are lovely.
"The Look Is Casual". Of course it is!! No reason why it shouldn't be!! I mean, what's cooking (okay, bad metaphor, I meant to say 'what's in the oven', whoops bad metaphor again, dang!!)
Ha! Where's the swollen ankles and fingers, platform shoes and pregnancy, ha! I must say I like these maternity outfits far more than the current fashion of just wearing your regular clothes until they stretch out beyond repair and make you look like your are about to burst. Even if you are!
ReplyDeleteI agree. At least back then, with the maternity "uniform" you knew for sure if a women was pregnant and could congratulate her without fear of making a major faux pas. Now, you're not sure if she's pregnant or just packing on some extra pounds!
DeleteI've thought pregnant women in bikinis is weird, but fat non-pregnant women in bikinis is worse!!!
ReplyDeleteAnother scary thought: How many of these models were still teenagers when they were modeling maternity clothes???
ReplyDeleteWell I know that Kathy, Kay, and Karen were in their early twenties when these pics were made. I assume the other models were as well. However, one difference between then and now is back then non-pregnant women modeled maternity wear. Now it is mostly models who are also pregnant that do most of the maternity modeling.
