Searching for a red maternity dress fit for royalty? Seraphine (a Best of The Bump winner) sells styles favored by Duchess Kate and supermodels alike. This dress is made from stretchy jersey and drapes beautifully over the bump, with pleating that allows for plenty of room as your bump grows. The classic shape—a high-neck, empire waist and three-quarter sleeves—makes it a truly regal choice. And after baby is born, the waist lifts up for easy nursing.

And you’ll still be able to wear it after baby is born too—music to our ears!
Size range: XS to XL | Material: 100% cotton | Care instructions: Machine wash, dry flat.
Long-sleeve maternity dress
Worn with leggings or tights, this red long-sleeve maternity dress with a scoop neck is an ideal choice for fall or winter.

Size range: XS to XXL | Material: 95% cotton/5% spandex | Care instructions: Machine wash, tumble dry
Red floral maternity dress
We love bright red, but it’s not your only option. Try rich burgundy, which exudes elegance—especially when it features a sophisticated floral pattern. You may not be drinking wine, but you can still embrace the pretty shade.
Size range: 4 to 12 | Material: Chiffon | Care instructions: N/A
Simple red maternity dress
This bright red maternity jersey dress is both comfortable and understatedly chic. You can dress it up with a pair of low heels and wear it out to dinner or rock it with tennies for a more casual look. Bonus: It slips on over the head, so you don’t have to fumble with zippers—score!
Size range: XS to XXL | Material: 95% cotton/5% spandex | Care instructions: Machine wash, line dry
Casual red maternity dress
This maternity red dress feels both comfortable and on-trend. Made with soft sweatshirt material, it’s definitely cozy enough to just wear around the house with a pair of leggings, but with a cool pair of boots and fun accessories, it works just as well when hitting the town. But the best part? It has pockets!
Size range: XS to 6X | Material: 60% cotton/40% polyester | Care instructions: Machine wash
Red striped maternity dress
The over-the-shoulder neckline and tiered layers make this red maternity dress both flirty and fun! Plus, we love the subtle striping. If form-fitting bodycon maternity dresses aren’t your thing, this is a great option that will still flatter your curves and feel fancy enough for a night out.
Size range: S to L | Material: 100% Polyester | Care instructions: Hand wash, line dry; dry clean recommended
Red velvet maternity dress
Super-luxe fabric, a deep V-neck and a twirly skirt—really, what’s not to love? This gorgeous red velvet maternity dress is a great option for any holiday party. Most importantly: It’s so soft you’ll be comfortable all night. We truly couldn’t ask for more!
Size range: S to L | Material: 95% polyester/5% spandex | Care instructions: Hand wash, dry flat
Cut-out mini red maternity dress
Talk about a statement dress! This mini red maternity dress has cut-out sleeves and a criss-cross neckline that really wows. We’d call this another excellent date night or Valentine’s Day option. And it’s pretty affordable too!
Size range: S to 3X | Material: 92% polyester/8% spandex | Care instructions: Machine wash, tumble dry
Red maternity wrap dress
A wrap dress is a must when you’re pregnant! The tie waist is sophisticated, flattering and so easy to wear. The maternity red dress works for so many different occasions, from the baby shower to a hot date.
Size range: S to XL | Material: N/A | Care instructions: Machine wash
Red off-the-shoulder maternity dress
Here’s another long red maternity dress we love. The fitted dress will show off your shape, while the strapless neckline with a ruffle trim adds some extra allure. It works well as an elevated day-to-night look for vacation and beyond.
Size range: S to 3X | Material: 92% polyester/8% spandex | Care instructions: Machine wash, tumble dry
Red knit maternity dress
A knit dress is a fall and winter essential! And when you’re pregnant, there’s no better way to hug your curves, stay warm and look chic at the same time. Worn with knee-high or ankle boots, this sophisticated red maternity sweater dress with flared sleeves will exude style.
Size range: XS to XL | Material: 69% rayon/31% polyester | Care instructions: Machine wash inside out, dry flat
Smocked red maternity dress
What can we say? We love a smocked dress, and the trendiest mamas do too. The peasant style seems to be here to stay, and this red maternity dress takes it up a notch with a romantic square neckline and tie on the open back. It’s easy to throw on during the day, but will also turn heads on a night out when paired with a matching red lip or sexy shoe.
Size range: S to L | Material: 100% polyester (dress)/100% rayon (lining) | Care instructions: Hand wash, line dry
Shopping for a new dress can be a ton of fun, but the market may be a little harder to navigate when you’re pregnant. You’re dressing for a changing body and may even need to shop brands you’ve never heard of before. So, we decided to do some of the legwork for you. We searched through the brands and retailers that we trust to find the best red maternity dresses out there in all different styles. We looked at size range, material and how they need to be laundered. We also made sure to read user reviews to see what real consumers have experienced when wearing these dresses, and didn’t consider anything with less than an average four-star rating.
