How to Choose Your Size

Finding the perfect fit is essential for comfort and confidence throughout your motherhood journey. Our award-winning maternity and postnatal activewear is designed to support you through pregnancy and beyond.

General Sizing Philosophy

At Latched, we design our products to grow with you. Our pieces are engineered to accommodate your changing body while providing the support you need to stay active and comfortable.

Key Principles:

• Choose your pre-pregnancy size in most cases
• Our fabric has strategic stretch to accommodate growth
• When between sizes, consider your stage of pregnancy and personal comfort preference
• All products are tested by real mums for real-life wear

How to Measure Yourself

For the most accurate fit, take your measurements wearing minimal clothing:

Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the ground

Under Bust: Measure directly under your bust where the band of a bra would sit

With so many leggings to choose from and the collection expanding hopefully this bump guide will make it a little easier to get the right leggings for you  

• Show- newly pregnant and your regular clothes are becoming a little tight. Generally the 1st trimester.
• Glow - your bump has popped and theres no more squeezing into your jeans with the hair band hack. Generally the 2nd trimester.
• Grow - You are in the thick of it now. You can't really see your toes any more and baby has made themselves at home. Generally the 3rd trimester. 
• Whoa -  Yes I am aware I have a big bump. Its not polite to ask "Oh my god, are you having twins". I can't get out of bed in the morning and yes i'm struggling to get dressed. Perfect for comfort throughout your pregnancy and for mums with larger bumps or carrying multiples. 
• Postnatal - You've got through labour and you're ready to get moving but need added support, extra pockets and thick fabric to hide any pads or knickers. The 4th trimester and beyond.

• If breastfeeding: Your current size should work perfectly, we understand that your cup size can fluctuate by up to 2 sizes before and after a feed. This is why our products are made from high quality and adaptive fabric. 
• Between sizes? Still Unsure? Order more than one to try on at home and return what you don't need to ensure the best fit. 

Fit Notes:

• Designed to accommodate breast size changes during pregnancy and postpartum
• Adjustable straps allow for customisation
