Celebrating pregnancy and motherhood! Aneesa Ahmed started Gravida when she found that the maternity ranges did not fully address the needs of pregnant women who wanted stylish and quality garments that could be worn during and after pregnancy. She searched internationally to find designs. Well designed maternity wear will last a whole pregnancy and the classic styles will continue beyond the due date. It is therefore a good idea to buy early and keep it simple. Use key accessories to accentuate your wardrobe and delight in the details. Pregnancy is a good time to pamper yourself a bit. This could be with beautiful maternity lingerie, a great designer diaper bag that doubles up as a desirable fashion bag, pure cotton baby rompers…or simply some TLC and a chat with the knowledgeable Gravida staff.
