The best maternity winter coats to keep you cosy

It’s not easy dressing when you’re pregnant in winter but thankfully finding a coat that keeps both you and your growing bump warm and looks stylish too is a lot easier than it once was. 

We’d recommend purchasing a specific maternity coat rather than going up a size in a non-maternity coat, as maternity jackets and coats are designed with your bump in mind, offering features that flatter your fabulous new curves and support your bump. Many now also come with baby carrying inserts so that you can wear your new maternity winter coat throughout pregnancy and beyond, making it a worthy investment.

In our round-up below, we’ve included a variety of styles, tastes and budgets, helping you to find the perfect maternity winter coat for 2021.

This super-soft coat has a cocoon shape designed to help you look and feel fabulous at every stage of your pregnancy. Fully lined with a classic shawl collar to keep your neck warm, the teddy fabric will keep you snug when you head outside.

Available in sizes 8-18.

Review: "Gorgeous coat and so snuggly warm! My daughter has the matching one and we love them! Super comfy over bump too!"

With some maternity clothes, your use for them stops when you give birth but this 2-in-1 coat can be used throughout your entire pregnancy and afterwards too. Insert or remove the centre panel to adjust the coat to your changing shape, and then use the drawstring to help define your waist. Fully padded and quilted, it'll feel like wearing your duvet out and about and what's better than that?

Available in sizes 8-18.

The ultimate babywearing coat, this 3 in 1 Winter Maternity Parka will keep you cosy and dry during pregnancy and then your baby when they arrive too. Water resistant windproof, simply zip on the extra panel at the front and you're baby can join you in the coat. Lined in soft faux-fur, the babywearing insert also has a section for your baby’s feet, and can be worn open or zipped all the way up. Then when your baby gets bigger, simply remove the insert and use the adjustable drawstring ties.

Availalbe in sizes 6 to 22.

Review: "I love this coat! I wear it post pregnancy and I get so many compliments. I have tried it with my 6 month old and it’s a great fit. Look forward to wearing this in the future during my next pregnancy and beyond!"

A camel coat is a wardrobe essential that will go with everything and we love this stylish maternity version. Made from 100 per cent wool, it's tailored to flatter those changing curves of yours, offering an elegant drape. Secure it shut with discreet concealed poppers and a self-tie belt at the empire waist. This coat fits generously and if you are between sizes, consider ordering a size down.

Available in sizes 6-18.

Made from premium wool melton, this A line shape is a classic, feautirng a funnel neck collar and asymmetric wrap over plus elegant feature buttons for an extra stylish touch.

This coat is also available to enjoy as part of the brand's maternity rental programme. Rent for 2 weeks and then return it within the 2 week window.

Available in sizes 4-18.

Stand out the crowd in this cheerful wool blend coat. A straight silhouette with a relaxed fit, it'll look great whether you're dressing up or dressing down. We love the chic notch lapel collar and front slant pockets.

Available in sizes XS - XL.

This maternity parka comes in three different colours to choose from but we love this vibrant yellow. Made with recycled polyester, it's padded to keep you toasty and is designed to fit through all stages of your pregnancy with an adjustable tie-string waist to ensure the perfect fit.

Available in sizes small and large.
