Toronto maternity shops for a fit and fashionable pregnancy
Shopping for maternity clothing isn’t what it was like in your mother’s day. Now, moms-to-be have plenty of options when it comes to fashion, affordability, accessibility and fit. As these nine Toronto maternity stores will show you, maternity and nursing wear have come a long way, baby.
B To B Maternity
1643 Bayview Ave, East York ON M4G 3C1This shop was started by a mother who knew first-hand the difficulties of buying fashionable maternity wear that felt as good as it looked. She was tired of overspending on a temporary wardrobe and thought others felt the same way. The result is a store where you can buy high quality, used maternity clothes and resell on consignment.
Carry Maternity
110 Cumberland St, Toronto ON M5R 1A6Yorkville has long been the heart of fashion in Toronto, and the neighbourhood has its own local shop offering original maternity wear. Owner Pat Gillespie designs her own, made-in-Canada creations so expectant moms can look and feel good. You can mix and match from the private label stock and selected brands and seek Pat’s advice for assembling an affordable maternity wardrobe.
Ani And Wren
102-287 Macpherson Ave, Toronto ON M4V 1A4This shop was started by sisters-in-law, Lauren and Lani, who decided to marry style and fit. They wanted a fashion-forward line of clothing in which women could feel beautiful regardless of stage of pregnancy or nursing. You can shop on your own or consult their professional wardrobe services to assemble your maternity garb from an extensive selection of designer labels.
Evymama Maternity
1345 St Clair Ave W, Toronto ON M6E 1C3Their two Toronto locations, one on Jane and the other on the Danforth, offer clothes that last well into the nursing stage. You’ll find chic garments in a variety of styles that’ll adapt to your changing body, along with discrete nursing wear as well. The prices are competitive and there are end-of-season sales where you’ll find additional savings. They also have online shopping for added convenience.
Motherhood Maternity
