There's little we love more than a celebrity pregnancy announcement here at Cosmo – and even more so when it's from a star with already-epic style. Just think back to Rihanna, who absolutely changed the game during her first pregnancy when she dressed up her bump to the nines in everything from crystal bras and leather hot-pants to tiny crop tops and sheer lingerie-inspired slip dresses. And the world's biggest – by which we mean, most pregnant – stars have followed suit ever since.
No longer something to be concealed (not that it ever should have been!) under baggy maternity clothes, a growing bump is now pride of place in any stylish celeb's pregnancy wardrobe. Which is why yesterday's news that Suki Waterhouse is expecting her first child with Robert Pattinson got us particularly excited.
Yep, the news was made official during one of Suki's gigs, for which she rocked a sequinned dress and fluffy jacket, telling the crowd: "I thought I'd wear something sparkly today to distract you from something else I've got going on... I’m not sure if it’s working" as she motioned towards her stomach. If that's not a sign that we can expect some truly epic bump 'fits from the mother-to-be, then we don't know what is...
Well, it's safe to say that Suki has already given the people what they want, channeling her Daisy Jones And The Six character in a Seventies-inspired 'fit feat. her bump front and centre. Just scroll through to the second pic to see what we're talking about:
Posing alongside model and BFF Georgia May Jagger, Suki is *literally* glowing in a super-sparkly outfit featuring a lilac and green sequinned micro-mini dress, crystal-embellished see-through flared leggings, knee-high metallic cowboy boots and a pink shaggy jacket on top. Talk about iconic!
Her famous friends clearly thought so too, with the likes of Dua Lipa, Karlie Kloss and Cara Delevingne posting their congratulations in the comments section. Get ready for a whole lotta bump-baring fashion in the months to come, ppl! We can hardly wait.
