Modeled after the famous dress she wore when announcing her engagement to Prince Charles, it has been tweaked to accommodate a growing pregnant belly. If its fit for royalty, it will certainly be in demand amongst commoners.

Although the Duchess of Cambridge has been seen shopping at JoJo Maman Bebe for her maternity wear, the United Kingdom store Blossom Mother and Child hopes to cash in on the royal pregnancy by carrying the Issa Classic Silk Wrap Maternity Dress. Considering that the design of the dress would be extremely flattering for mothers-to-be, the shop should have no trouble selling it.
