Petra Maxi Dress | Black

The Petra is an elegant, black, nursing maxi dress with a fabulous metallic fleck. She’s the perfect dress for any special occasion: weddings, parties, brunch with your besties, she’ll be a trusty, fabulous fixture in your wardrobe.

A buy now and love forever dress. Her sheer, flowing, metallic fabric, her blouson, frill cuffed sleeves and her ruffled collar enhance & elevate her stunning 70’s inspired silhouette, but it’s her zip detailing that gives her the edge, a modern twist. Dress her up with a pair of heels and a retro updo, or dress her down with a pair of chunky boots and a leather jacket! A dress that works hard so you don’t have to.

The best part though, is that we have designed her to be versatile…her flowing silhouette makes her bump friendly, the fabric cascades over that growing bump, keeping your secret safe until you’re ready to show it off making this the perfect maternity dress when you need it to be. Her zip front detailing makes her boobing friendly, not completely discreet access, but slide that zip down to access the goods, and thus Petra becomes a fabulous nursing maxi dress too. BUT if you don’t need to grow or feed a small person it will simply dazzle when you wear this fabulous dress.
3 stages of Motherhood – 1 fabulous dress! Designed to be worn and loved for a lifetime.

Tilbea London is an award-winning maternity wear brand. Nicky and Claire wanted a design brand for maternity wear: functional, without fuss, but following fashion. So they started creating the perfect nursing dress. In October 2018, they were ready to launch Tilbea, with not just one perfect dress, but a whole collection. Tilbea cares about you and your baby's future, so they make responsible choices that are right for you and the planet.

Ethically produced: 80% of the collection is produced in Portugal and 20% in India. The employees receive fair wages and work at normal working hours. Tilbea is transparent about the production locations and also has sufficient images of the location. The factories operate according to sustainable principles. For example, there is a reservoir on site to recycle and filter the used water.

Eco-friendly: Unfortunately, not all Tilbea materials are environmentally friendly, natural or recycled. 75% of the new collection is now made from sustainable materials such as Lenzing EcoVero™, organic cotton or reclaimed material and they want to keep increasing this percentage so that the entire collection will soon consist of sustainable material.

Good cause: Tilbea had an action where 2 pounds per facemask was donated to refugees.
