Our second sisterMAG baby is on its way (first one came last year with our designer Marie), we had the feeling it was time to embrace this topic in this issue. With our co-founder Thea in her 9th month pregnant, we are presenting six brand-new sisterMAG sewing patterns in our shop for beautiful dresses and a comfy dungaree that you can – in the biggest parts – wear beyond your nine months of pregnancy.
For this mini shoot Thea asked her dad at home to shoot these images in the old workshop. Because there is never a time when you are redoing so many corners in your „finished“ flat than when you are preparing for the little ones.
Be inspired and we would love to see you making some of these maternity styles. If you do, please tag us with @sistermagpatterns on Instagram and we are happy to share.
62-1 Loose pleated, sleeveless dress with long collar
An elegant, loose dress with pleated details without sleeves that can be worn with or without an attached white, long collar. Can be worn with or without a belt.
»This is actually my personal favourite of the collection that I wore to numerous business meetings or also for the SHISEIDO Mastercalss after I was showing more belly. You instantly feel a bit more elegant even with swollen feet and backache.« (Thea)

62-4 Loose-fit dungarees with buckle in the front
Pants are maybe the most difficult thing to shop during pregnancy. If you are searching for a fun garment that will definitely be more comfortable than any stretch waistband, it is this oversized dungaree with a buckle in the front.
In our pattern we also explain how to sew this for non-pregnancy lovers of a good dungaree.
