Cropped maternity tops are typically made from blends of natural and synthetic fibers that add softness and stretch. Common materials include polyester and rayon blends with spandex/elastane for stretch, organic cotton with spandex, plain cotton, recycled polyester blends, and poly-cotton blends.
The most common necklines for cropped maternity tops are V-neck and crew-neck styles.
You’ll find cropped maternity tops in lightweight, midweight, and year-round fabric constructions to suit different seasons and layering needs.
Styling features include hoods, adjustable tie-fronts, ruffle hems, ruched sides for shaping, printed graphics, banded cuffs, and single-layer sweatshirt construction.
Many cropped maternity tops incorporate stretchy fibers such as spandex/elastane in their blends. These fabrics are described as soft and very stretchy so they can comfortably accommodate your growing bump.
Adjustability features include front drawstrings, adjustable V-neck ties, and ruched sides for shaping. Most cropped maternity tops are pullovers rather than designs with zippers or button closures.
