Baby On Board Apparel: Fashion Basics for Blossoming Bellies

E-mail comment on this item

Baby On Board Apparel is an eco-conscious maternity wear line that uses various environmentally friendly procedures in the production of their collection. We love the liberal use of lush Organic cottons, recycled polyesters and thin organic jerseys. All BOBA garments are produced with non-toxic dyes and chemicals, creating safe conditions for soon-to- be-mommies and their little ones inside. Nothing is more precious than a clean environment for your fresh little bundle. BOBA works to develop environmentally-friendlier production techniques and apparel from the onset of the design process.

The collection is 100% Canadian-made, high quality, comfortable, fashionable, and eco-conscious. Before new dyes and chemicals are introduced and working with their suppliers, BOBA will predetermine any possible negative affects on soon-to-be-mommies, their babies, and the environment.

Baby On Board Apparel offers maternity apparel that women can depend on before and after pregnancy. Embracing the bump, BOBA is designed to provide
full coverage while making fashion coordination effortless and keeping a woman's existing wardrobe in mind. BOBA is the only Canadian maternity line that offers a full range of sizes from extra-small (XS) to XX-Large (XXL), for the teeny-weeny to the full figured mommy.

Combating the heat factor that many pregnant women experience as their body temperature fluctuates, the BOBA collection utilizes a cooling poly/cotton blend that is light and airy to help the skin breathe and stay comfortable. Garments are all pre-shrunk three times to provide the perfect fit

Baby On Board Apparel was conceived when founder Ali McEwen 's sister was pregnant with her first child. After seeing that the maternity market lacked apparel that celebrated pregnancy, Ali soon set on a mission to create something that mommies to be would be proud to wear. With her background in fashion marketing and merchandising she used some of her resources to custom create and produce 50 t-shirt's which are now known as The UltraSound Tee. The positive response resulted in Ali creating an entire collection of Celebration Tee's that first launched in April of 2009. At the end of the same year Ali decided to leave her full time day job and follow her entrepreneurial spirit to create fashionable basics for blossoming bellies and take her company to the next level.

Fall 2010 will bring the launch PROJECT FORMULA which is a not-for-profit project dedicated to providing baby formula to needy mothers and their babies across Canada. A percentage of every online sale will go towards supporting this cause.

Baby On Board Apparel is committed to creating pieces that fit, flatter, and co-ordinate to make up the perfect maternity wardrobe while allowing soon to-be mothers to maintain their own personal style through all phases of their pregnancy and beyond.

BOBA has a stellar celebrity fan base of leading ladies including Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ellen Pompeo, Catherine Bell of Army Wives and Billie from Mad Dog and Billie.

Baby On Board Apparel is available at: Stella & Sway Boutique, Baby & Me Maternity, and online at www.babyonboardapparel.com
