Some garments are more than just fabric on skin.
They walk with us through moments when everything is in motion –
between before and after, between self and other,
between holding on and letting go.
A nursing dress is one of those pieces.
It’s not only worn – it holds.
It warms, shields, and makes space – for closeness, for change, for something new being born.
To me, nursing dresses aren’t just a functional solution – they’re symbolic garments for times of transition.
Because nursing isn’t only about feeding – it’s about bonding, shifting identity, new rhythms.
And the clothing around that moment should do more than just “open.”
It should honour.
In one of my YouTube videos, I’ve already shared how I sew a nursing dress – simple, soft, with practical access points and a cut that doesn’t hide the body but walks gently beside it.
✨ And even if you’re not nursing –
maybe you’re sewing for someone who is.
Or maybe you are in a phase of transition.
Then a nursing dress might become your own garment of becoming.
Because clothes can open more than just buttons.
They can open space – on the skin and within.
👉 Have you ever chosen or made a piece of clothing for a personal transition?
I’d love to hear your thoughts, stories, or quiet rituals ✨
