Thanks to stars like Rihanna, the baby bump has become a fashion accessory. Ever since the Fenty mogul released her first pregnancy news that saw her wear a vintage Chanel coat, jeans, and belly jewelry, Riri has set a sartorial example for pregnant celebrities to follow, with Nigeria’s Maria Chike following suit.
Following Maria’s pregnancy announcement (wearing custom Veekee James), the A-list has pivoted her wardrobe for the new beginning, meaning pieces that proudly display her growing bump. Last week, to hang out, she wore an outfit that screamed Riri (yass!). Maria wore her comfortable sandals with slouchy denim, a cropped tank, and an oversized coat from Balenciaga for a daytime pregnancy glow runway strut.
True to form, she opted for a more relaxed beauty look for the off-duty outing,completing the look with a matching black bag.

Maria also follows a long line of celebrity-breaking pregnancy “reveals”, such as Beyoncé’s flower crown in 2017, and Nicki Minaj’s bikini and platform heels in 2020. Red carpet moments include Kim Kardashian’s floral dress at the Met Ball in 2012 and MIA’s polkadots at the Grammys in 2009.
