The season begins strong with glamorous '70s- inspired styling and bright colors. Color blocking, flare legs, caftan silhouettes, silk blouses, and bold stripes are featured trends of the season. A color clash of fuchsia, vibrant coral, teal, and royal purple supports this latest collection.

As Spring pushes forward, the mood softens with a palette of blush pink, seafoam, and chambray paired with soft neutrals. Feminine ruffles, sheer stripes, and loose knit textures are important emerging trends. Florals and embroideries lend a romantic touch to the season.

The colored skinny jean is the statement of the season with cuffed crops and soft flare legs following suit. Side ruching continues to be a key element in tees and dresses as a flattering accent to the pregnant belly.

"Pregnancy is a time to show your style, and this collection allows the mom-to-be to represent the fashion trends seen on the runway in a way that compliments her beautiful new shape," said Chris Daniel, President of Destination Maternity Corporation, the parent company of A Pea in the Pod.
