In the snap, taken by close friend and photographer, Misan Harriman with an iPad, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex looked over the moon as they posed in their back garden - Meghan lying in Harry's lap, cradling her burgeoning bump.

"We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother," a spokesperson for the couple confirmed to WHO's sister site, PEOPLE. 

However, there was one big detail that certainly caught our attention - the dress.

What a picture!

Instagram

The Duchess of Sussex donned a custom-designed Carolina Herrera frock for the very special photo shoot, and there was even some significance behind it.

Meghan's dress was given from the Venezuelan American label during her first pregnancy with baby Archie and the soon-to-be mum-of-two reportedly has a longtime rapport with the brand's creative director, Wes Gordon.

But of course, not every expectant mum can expect to afford a special dress from our fashionista friends.

The good news is that there are plenty of stunning alternatives to buy right here in Australia that are not only chic and comfortable but won't burn a hole in your bank account.

Keep scrolling for these stunning Duchess Meghan style maternity dresses.
