NEW YORK - The cat is out of the bag, or as fashion vixens may want to say, the seams have been let out of the dress — renowned designer Roberto Cavalli has confirmed Jennifer Lopez is expecting.

In an interview with People, Cavalli let J.Lo’s baby news slip, news she has kept mum on since rumors began circulating months ago that she was with child.

The confirmation came when People asked the designer what types of clothing he creates for his celebrity clientele.

“Well Jennifer Lopez, at this moment, she requests something very special because she is waiting for the baby,” he said.

The designer continued on, noting that he is faced with tough fashion choices because of J.Lo’s expanding tummy.

“It is so complicated because every week she is getting bigger,” he said.

Cavalli isn’t the first designer to spill a celebrity baby secret. Earlier this year, Naomi Watts’ publicly unconfirmed news was broken by Escada on Oscar night, who released a statement suggesting their dress “set off her most precious new asset ... the baby she is expecting with longtime boyfriend Liev Schreiber.”

Reps for Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony could not be reached at the time this article was published.
