Heidi Klum is creating a range of maternity clothes.

The mother-of-four - who already has her own line of clothes and accessories - wants to design the outfits so pregnant women can still be fashionable.

She told People magazine: "I experienced fashion challenges during my four pregnancies and combined my knowledge of what works in terms of style, comfort and practicality to create these lines.

"Being pregnant shouldn't stop you from being fashionable and feeling great about your changing body. It's an exciting journey."

Among the items in the collection are a loose-fitting floral print top and a black maxi-dress.

The German-born Victoria's Secret model recently admitted she didn't exercise for a fortnight after giving birth to her fourth child, daughter Lou in October.

She said: "I started very slowly with a bit of movement. We live in Los Angeles at a very steep hillside.

"I walked up and down - with a baby buggy! Then I extended this subsequently to longer walks. Then I called my trainer Andrea Orbeck. She comes in a few times a week."

Heidi also admitted that she did not find exercise fun but believed it was "important" for her body.
