Belly Bump Boutique announced the launch of its website, the first online store specializing in maternity formal wear for rent, the Company reported.
In a release, the Company noted that instead of buying an expensive designer outfit to wear once or twice, pregnant women can preview all the latest styles online, rent the outfit for a week at a fraction of its retail cost, and have it delivered to their door.

The website is directed toward the over 4 million pregnant mothers in the U.S. who spend an estimated $1.5 billion on maternity clothing each year.
"Given today's economy, we recognized the need for alternative options when it came to maternity formal wear," notes Julie Christoi, Founder of Belly Bump Boutique. "We developed the site to provide pregnant women with affordable options without compromising fashion - as we feature the latest styles in a wide range of sizes, from the industry's top designers, such as Liz Lange and Fierce Mamas."
