Barbara Palvin has spent more than a decade building a reputation as one of fashion's most reliably chic off-duty dressers, moving from Prada's runway at 16 to Victoria's Secret Angel status to a personal style built on denim, leather and precisely balanced polish. That eye for fashion is now extending into a new chapter of her life. On September 5, the Hungarian model, currently 36 weeks pregnant with her first child, shared a series of maternity portraits on Instagram that turned her final weeks of pregnancy into its own fashion moment.
In the photos, Palvin poses in a sheer, blush-pink top marked by crinkled fabric, delicate ruffle trim and a dramatic flowing cape, with several shots highlighting her bump as she cradles it. According to a wire report on the shoot, the piece is an archival design dating back to 1999 that was originally shown on the runway by Gisele Bündchen, giving the images a specific nod to fashion history alongside their more personal subject matter; FashionTimes has not yet independently confirmed the archival attribution and will update if verified. Husband Dylan Sprouse appears alongside her in several of the portraits, with the couple photographed sharing quiet moments together in what reads as a documentation of their last stretch before parenthood.
