Maternity Apparel Market Size

The global maternity apparel market was valued at USD 6.4 billion in 2024. The market is expected to grow from USD 6.6 billion in 2025 to USD 8.9 billion in 2034, at a CAGR of 3.4%.

The increase in the number of working pregnant women globally has been the single most significant driver behind the expansion of the maternity wear apparel industry, and it's growth has been remarkable in recent years. The maternity apparel industry has expanded due to the increased participation of women in the workforce. As per the S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, women made up roughly a half (47%) of the total labor market in the year 2023, with a large number of them continuing to work throughout their pregnancy. This has resulted in the need for feminine, stylish, yet comfortable professional maternity apparel. Also, governments in countries like the US and Germany have implemented policies that allow for the supportive accommodation of maternity leave which encourages greater participation of women in the workforce during pregnancy. For example, pregnant employees in the US are protected under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) which has been predicted to increase the use of maternity apparel, fueling its demand. Further, the increase in disposable income and the fashion sense of expecting mothers has led to women striving towards finding clothing that suit their professional and personal life during pregnancy, adding to this trend.

Another driver for the growth of the maternity apparel market is the rise in awareness and popularity of maternity fashion. Nowadays pregnant women tend to purchase clothes that are appealing as well as comfortable because people tend to perceive pregnancy as an opportunity to showcase themselves. With this new mindset came the expansion of casual and formal styles of maternity clothing to suit different tastes and occasions. The growth of the industry has further been fueled by social media and the endorsement of celebrity and fashion models which has increased interest from the public. The development of new materials has made it possible to design more comfortable and practical maternity clothing which has increased the number of women willing to purchase them.
