Abstract

Maternity wear is an inevitable need for the pregnant women to adapt themselves to the pregnancy driven major bodily changes. Modern day maternity wear not just ensures the comfort of the expecting mothers but also enhances the fashion appeal thereby allowing to retain the self-identity. Comfort in combination with style makes maternity wear the most sought-after clothing solutions for the pregnant women.

The current study thus intends to assess the popularity of maternity wear among the rural and peri-urban women
