Maternity Wear Market: An objective assessment of the trajectory of the Industry

Maternity wear clothes are worn by women during the period of pregnancy. Previously, maternity wear clothes were used to serve to the purpose of hiding the baby bump, irrespective the fitting. In recent times, women have become increasing conscious about the fitting of the clothes as well. Further, maternity wear are considered as a part of fashion clothing as well. This factor has led to the steady growth of the maternity wear market across the globe.

Increasing number of pregnant working women is a key factor responsible for the growth of the maternity wear market. This factor is also fuelled by the increasing purchasing power of women. High purchasing power of women has led them to spend considerable amount of money on maternity wears as well. Transition in the lifestyle of women in terms of dressing habits is another major factor responsible for the growth of this market. Women have become more concerned about proper fitting of their clothes which include maternity clothes as well. Additionally, celebrity influence is another factor that is driving the female population towards the purchase of various types of maternity wear clothes.

Low/fluctuating birthrates are a major hindrance to the growth of this market. Switzerland accounted for 9.53 births per 1000 people, while Bulgaria accounted for 9.32 births per 1000 people. Austria recorded birth rate of 8.67 births per 1000 people while Germany recorded 8.30 births per 1000 people. Monaco recorded the lowest birth rate of 6.94 births per 1000 people.
