Different women have different shapes, of course. Some of us carry our weight on the bottom and some of us are top heavy. It wasn't too long ago that maternity clothes didn't even bother taking that into account. It was basically a one-size-fits-all kind of thing. The focus was on the belly and this actually made the garments accentuate the feature. Todays maternity clothes are designed are specifically designed to flatter the different shapes and figures that are unique to would-be moms.
