If you are looking to start up a retail business in Melbourne, but are void of ideas, casting an eye over the below statistics may point you in the right direction. Recently released Department of Planning and Community Development figures show that Melbourne’s growth areas are expecting a massive rise in births over the next seven years. The figures forecast a 10 to 40 per cent increase in the northern, south eastern and outer-eastern suburbs between 2012 and 2018. They also predict more than a 40 per cent surge in the west over the same period, all meaning maternity clothing in Melbourne will be in supremely high demand in this baby boom era.

With over 20 stores in the Melbourne area dedicated to selling only maternity clothes, the market is far from flooded, but it does mean any expectant mums can easily find clothes to look good in the nine months ahead. These shops cater for all types of fantastic maternity clothes from jeans to lingerie and evening wear to swimwear. Thankfully, soon-to-be mums no longer have to slip into a pair of large unflattering pants for the entire pregnancy. With the use of stretch fabrics, ...
... comfortable tummy bands and clever designs, fashionable maternity clothes can fit pregnant women from as early as 8 weeks.

A very helpful tip and one that often gets overlooked is buying maternity clothes in different materials and fabrics depending on the time of year you are due to be most heavily pregnant. For example, linens and cottons are cool for summer – you may suffer in the heat with the increased blood flow, so cooling fabrics are important. Skin may become sensitive to man-made fabrics, resulting in hot, scratchy rashes. Clothing made with natural fibres is recommended in these cases. Cotton jersey is super soft and super stretchy, ideal for around your sensitive tummy.

Lycra is great for stretch and fit, and microfibres are breathable allowing air to circulate to keep you more comfortable. Layers are also useful; some women experience increased perspiring so layers can help to cool off and warm up as you do.

So whether you are an expectant mum or a budding entrepreneur, maternity clothes in Melbourne are now hugely in demand. What better way to make a living than to dress the growing number of yummy mummies walking the Melbourne high streets!
