Breastfeeding Outdoors | How the Women’s Fishing Dress Makes It Easier
Motherhood is one of life’s most beautiful journeys — full of joy, love, and moments you’ll never forget. But it also comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to breastfeeding outdoors. Finding a space that’s comfortable, discreet, and practical can be tricky — and that’s exactly why we designed the Northern Tide women’s fishing dress.
Empathising with Breastfeeding Mums
At Northern Tide Apparel, we understand how difficult breastfeeding in public can be. It’s not just about finding the right spot — it’s about having privacy, confidence, and comfort wherever you are. As mothers ourselves, we’ve been there, and we wanted to make it easier for women who love the outdoors to continue doing what they love, while caring for their little ones.
Designed for Comfort, Style, and Functionality
The Northern Tide women’s fishing dress was developed with real women in mind — including new mums. Our goal was to create something that’s not only flattering and functional but truly practical for breastfeeding mothers on the go.
The highlight of our design is the extra-long front zipper, strategically placed for easy access. Whether you’re cooling down or feeding your baby, you can simply unzip for discreet nursing — no awkward lifting or full outfit changes required.
Features That Support Your Breastfeeding Journey
Our fishing dresses are designed for outdoor-loving mums who need flexibility and sun protection without compromising style. Every feature has a purpose — tested on the water, in the sun, and through the realities of motherhood.
- UPF50+ Fabric: Soft, breathable, and certified for full sun protection. Stay safe and cool under Australia’s harsh UV rays.
- Breastfeeding-Friendly Zip: The extra-long front zip offers convenient and discreet nursing access anytime, anywhere.
- Stylish & Versatile Fit: Wear it loose for comfort or add the tie for shape — you’ll look confident whether on deck or at the café.
- Hidden Functional Pockets: A discreet hip pocket keeps your essentials (phone, pads, or pacifiers) close at hand.
Why We Created It
One of our biggest goals at Northern Tide is to make life outdoors easier and more enjoyable for women — including mothers. We believe every woman deserves the freedom to nurse comfortably and confidently, without sacrificing style or protection.
That’s why our women’s fishing dress is more than just clothing — it’s about empowerment. Designed for real life, it lets you embrace motherhood and adventure, side by side.
