We don’t know about you, but we’re really looking forward to following the celebrity pregnancy style evolution of Alesha Dixon after she recently announced she is expecting her first child. The singer’s publicist confirmed the momentous news to the press and her fans, saying: “Alesha Dixon and her partner, Azuka Ononye, are delighted to announce that they are expecting their first child later this year. Alesha and Azuka are looking forward to this happy chapter in their lives.”
Alesha followed up the revelation with a tweet to thank all of her fans and followers for their messages of support and congratulations, saying: “Would just like to say a big THANK U for all of your lovely messages and well wishes! #verysweet #veryblessed 🙂 X.”
It’s going to be a busy few months for the star, as she’ll be getting used to pregnancy, filming the next series of Britain’s Got Talent and appearing on the new ITV entertainment series, Your Face Sounds Familiar.
As if that weren’t enough, she’ll also be working on her next album. She’s making us feel tired just by looking at that list! Hopefully she finds plenty of time to pamper herself in between engagements. It’s her wardrobe that we’ll really be interested in though, as we want to see how she translates her usual look into the maternity clothes she’ll no doubt be stocking up on.
Actually, she won’t need to deviate too far from the trends she currently wears, as Alesha already has a fantastic sense of style. She isn’t afraid to express that huge personality through her clothes, which always results in a really fun and bright look. Like most women, we enjoyed seeing how she was a complete contrast to her Britain’s Got Talent co-host Amanda Holden during the live finals, favouring minidresses and bold hues over Mandy’s floor-length pastel gowns.
So, how might she make the style transition and what could she wear over the coming months? Here are Seraphine’s suggestions based on her previous great outfits.
- Bright colours
We love Alesha’s totally tropical dress sense – she’s a breath of fresh air, always looking like she’s on holiday even when she’s in rainy Britain. She can definitely continue this during pregnancy, as bold hues are really on-trend for summer 2013 and beyond.

- High hemlines
Just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you can no longer wear minidresses, so we hope Alesha won’t lose her penchant for high hemlines and will keep showing off those perfect pins. She may have to swap her towering stilettos for something more stable – but our ballet flats will look just as good with those thigh-skimming skirts.

- Sharp tailoring
When Alesha’s not in dresses, she often goes for a complete contrast by opting for smart yet feminine tailoring. Again, this will be ideal for pregnancy because a blouse and blazer combo looks so flattering – and the outer layer can be left undone when that bump gets really big. Unsurprisingly, she shies away from black and chooses bright shirts and jackets, so this is something we reckon will continue as she vets candidates for BGT this year.

Congratulations, Alesha!
