Actress Natalie Portman proved that mommies-to-be, can still rock the red carpet when she arrived at the Golden Globes in this showstopper.

Colour, colour, colour

Proud mamas know that hiding the baby bump is so last century. One way to draw attention is in a bright solid, shade. Choose something too fussy, like a busy print or design, and you may raise some questions about your weight. Rather come out showing a sunny disposition.

Portman choose cool chartreuse – an almost identical shade to that which First Lady Jackie O had worn to the Metropolitan Opera House in 1975.

The actress stars in the title role of Pablo Larraín-directed Jackie, a clear front runner year at this years awards. The simple Prada gown was chic with long sleeves and minimal silver sequins. The umpire line cut helped give the dress structure and works well on preggy bellies.

Floor length

While Portman surely had on designer shoes the floor length dress allowed her to wear whatever shoes she found most comfortable. At about 7 months pregnant her feet, like that of most expectant moms, may be swelling and surely taking the toll of carrying another little being.

A longer length gown is definitely more demure and works proportionally with weight around the middle. In the past other actresses have chosen more fitted gowns, but still opted for the longer length.

Face first

The sixties-style bouffant half up/ half down hairstyle, typical of the style icon she plays and was certainly channeling on the red carpet, along with the major bling – diamond earrings by Tiffany & Co, helped draw attention to the starlets glowing face.
