TEstimonials

The best delivery from such a gorgeous business, made even better with a handwritten note and chocolate.

I got my package and both dresses fit perfectly. The black one is a perfect casual dress. Great service.

Mother Dragon has been a wonderful source of preloved clothes for my pregnancy and now my breastfeeding journey. The website is easy to use, the pieces available are great quality and Jo is so attentive with customer service. I’m so glad I found this shop to enable me to buy maternity clothes with an environmental conscience! 

I got positively giddy collecting my package from the post office and I’m so delighted with everything. It is such a relief to know I have a lovely capsule wardrobe of come clothes to wear thanks to your selection.

I received my fab new elastic jeans and I love them, Thank you so much!

The heat can make getting dressed feel like a challenge during pregnancy, but it doesn't have to be. Natural fabrics and looser-fitting styles can make all the difference, helping your body breathe and move more comfortably throughout the day. And let's not forget about style. This vibrant coral dress is one of those easy pieces that requires very little thought. The relaxed fit, soft gathers and button-front detail offer comfort and style in equal measure, making it perfect for warmer days. Stay well in the heat, mamas 😎☀️ #motherdragonireland #prelovedmaternity #sustainablestyle #summerpregnancy #irishmums

If I were pregnant right now, this is what I'd be wearing. Maternity jeans and a few pieces from my own wardrobe. Pregnancy asks a lot of your clothes. They need to be comfortable and practical, but they should still feel like you. The best outfits are often the simplest ones. The ones you reach for without thinking because they fit your body, your style and your mood. Would you wear this outfit? #motherdragonireland #maternitywardrobe #pregnancyoutfit #maternitystyle #irishmums

Colour analysis is everywhere right now. We're told certain colours make us glow, while others wash us out. And maybe that's true. But is colour analysis a genuinely useful tool that makes getting dressed easier? Or is it just another fashion rule that's complicating the way we get dressed? Personally, I think understanding colour can be helpful. But I also think wearing a colour you love counts for a lot, even if it's not in your 'season'. So tell me, have you had your colours done? Which of these tops would you choose? 👇🏼 Trend or useful tool? #motherdragonireland #colouranalysis #personalstyle #prelovedfashion #wearwhatyoulove Colour Analysis

Why are there so many skinny maternity jeans? For years, the styling advice was simple: volume on the top, slim on the bottom. And what has more volume than a growing bump? So it makes sense that skinny maternity jeans became the default. But as trends change, maternity fashion is catching up. Now we're seeing more straight-leg, wide-leg, mom, barrel and relaxed styles appearing. In fact, they're often the first jeans to sell when they come into the shop. Skinny jeans haven't disappeared and nor should they; they're just no longer the only option. And choice is always a good thing. Maternity jeans are also one of the best items to buy preloved. The over-the-bump waistband makes them quite specific, and because they’re usually worn for a short period, many pairs are still in excellent condition with plenty of life in them. Why do you think skinny maternity jeans dominated for so long? Was it the styling, the fit, or simply a lack of alternatives?

Exciting news 🎉 I'm looking for a new charity partner. Mother Dragon exists because I know how difficult it can be to find clothes that fit your changing body, your style and your budget during pregnancy and postpartum. Every woman deserves to feel comfortable, confident and like herself during this stage of life. That's why I'm looking to connect with a new organisation that supports women through pregnancy, postpartum and early motherhood. You might be a social worker, midwife, doula, community worker, volunteer, family support worker, charity leader, or someone working directly with women and families. Or perhaps you know an organisation that would be a great fit. If your work is centred on supporting women and your values align with Mother Dragon, I'd love to hear from you. 📩 Get in touch at hello@motherdragon.ie Jo

Let's talk about why preloved makes sense. There are so many reasons people choose to shop preloved: sustainability, finding unique pieces, reducing waste, supporting circular fashion, and making more conscious purchasing decisions. Today, I’m focusing on just one of those reasons: finances 💰. Whether you're building a wardrobe, replacing essentials, or treating yourself to something special, every small saving adds up. Shopping preloved doesn’t have to mean compromising on quality or style. It can simply mean getting more from your budget while giving great pieces a second life. Do finances play a role in your decision to shop preloved? #prelovedfashion #secondhandStyle #sustainablefashion #circularfashion #motherdragonireland
