Pregnant in N.Y. with my first child in 1996 I was shocked what my choices were when it came to clothing. There was the choice of wearing a red polyester dress with a big, red ribbon on your belly or leggings. I was frustrated in trying to hold on to some style in this phase.
Being a fashion designer by profession it was a logical step for me to find a better solution for women. At this point I had been pregnant with 5 kids in all kinds of different life-situations; in different countries with lots of clothing to wear or with close to nothing at all. In my last pregnancy I restricted myself to only wear this kit and feel confident in recommending it. Neunmaldrei is my first project which has been entirely produced in Germany from the fabric mill to the ribbon on the box.
