Add invisible zips to front/ side seams for nursing?

I have been sewing away whilst on maternity leave for my kids and would love to sew something flattering for my current shape.


The problem is I am currently nursing a little one, and intend to continue for a while yet. I am very very over nursing singlets as my "go to" or having to wear heaps of awkward layers when I leave the house.

You must know what I mean...


Anyway, to those that have made the cappuccino dress: would adding two invisible zippers one in each of the front section seams (that zip down) work for easy access (if you know what I mean)??


I have been looking around on the internet for non maternity patterns and am stuck, and I loved this top when it was released but is impractical straight of the pattern.


So I took another look at ready to wear for how they turn regular tops into nursing tops and saw this idea for panelling.


I am short and full busted, with a post baby belly :)
