The Met Gala & The Exhaustion Of Having A Take On Everything

May 8, 2026

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXp8kZqkVSu/?igsh=MXRjcGt0am10azNvMw== Every year, I look forward to the Met Gala. Not because I’m especially invested in celebrity culture, but because I genuinely love fashion. I love the storytelling of it all. The craftsmanship. The references hidden inside silhouettes and fabrics. I love learning the theme each yea[...]

When Your Outfit Throws Off Your Whole Day: Dressing for Mood, Style & Function

June 26, 2025

You know those days when your outfit just feels off and suddenly, so do you? A rainy morning forced me to choose function over feeling, and it threw my whole mood. I’m sharing how style, mood, and confidence are more connected than we often realise and what to do about it.

Fashion Basics

May 3, 2024

The post questions the real need for "fashion basics" and "wardrobe essentials," suggesting these concepts are more marketing strategies than practical necessities. The writer criticizes the consumer-driven nature of these lists and prefers exploring the historical origin and sustainable application of wardrobe basics. Personal style is emphasized over fashi[...]

What are your measurements?

July 26, 2023

Hello. How is everyone this week? I want to talk about sizing. If I asked you what your measurements are could you tell me? Could you tell me in relation to how brands define their sizes? This is something I really struggle with and even more so now that I am two and half years post pregnancy. Before having my babies, I had a firm grasp on my style, my body[...]

Ready, steady, shop.

July 9, 2023

Here it is. Mother Dragon’s first collection of preloved maternity clothing. I’ll be honest, it took me some time to decide what pieces would make the first collection (decisiveness, at times is not my strong point) and I hope you like it.  My focus for each collection is to provide a selection of maternity pieces, in a range of preloved conditi[...]

Hi, I’m Jo Leggiero
about me

Hi, I’m Jo Leggiero

Hi, I’m Jo Leggiero, founder of Mother Dragon. Thanks for visiting my store. Whether you are shopping for yourself (congratulations!) or someone else, I hope my curated collection of preloved maternity clothes gives you the opportunity to rewear and recycle a range of quality secondhand maternity clothes. Most importantly, I hope shopping at Mother Dragon gives confidence and comfort as you style yourself during your pregnancy. There is nothing more fierce than a woman who loves what she is wearing, and that should be no different when you are maternity fashion. Jo @ Mother Dragon

Pregnancy and breastfeeding asks a lot of your clothes. Often function takes priority but it isn't everything.
Clothes need to be comfortable and practical. But they still need to be pieces you want to wear.
The best pieces quietly do both. They're the ones you reach for again and again without thinking about it.
The ones that make getting dressed a little easier. They don't pull, twist or distract. They just let you get on with your day.

So keep it simple.

Some days during pregnancy, getting dressed feels easy. Some days nothing feels right.

Dressing for the body you have now and finding pieces that are comfortable, practical and still feel like you matters more than people realise.

Denim and I haven’t always been on the same page. For a long time it was black jeans or nothing. If it didn’t feel right, I assumed it was my body that was the problem.

What I’ve learned (and what I wish I knew sooner) is that denim is never just one thing. It behaves differently depending on how it’s made and that changes everything.

Some denim has stretch, which gives you that bit of give when your body is changing or growing.
Some is more rigid, which holds its shape but doesn’t always move with you.

Some is lightweight and soft, draping easily over the body.
Others are heavier and more structured, sitting away from you and creating shape.

And then there’s fit. Straight, relaxed, skinny, barrel. Not better or worse, just different ways of sitting on a changing body.

That’s why I love pieces like this.
Easy and no overthinking. The kind of thing you can put on and feel like yourself in, whatever stage you’re at.

There’s a reason denim never really leaves us.
You just have to find the version that works for you. 

What's your relationship like with denim right now?

I was twinning with my mannequin today in my denim dungarees and realised I have a denim pinafore as well. I lived in both pieces post partum and wouldn't be without them in my wardrobe.
Tell me which do you prefer, denim dungarees or a denim pinafore?
