We all know Beyoncé has no problem showing off her baby bump.

Not only did hot mama-to-be proudly rub her belly at the MTV VMAs when she announced she was expecting her and hubby Jay-Z's first child (we still have chills from her performance!), but…

It seems like the holiday ad campaign for her and mom Tina Knowles' House of Deréon fashion line also pays tribute to her impending motherhood.

In a just released image from the campaign, a rather busty Beyoncé poses in a short tight glittery gold cocktail dress.

However, knowing what we know now, we can't help but notice the placement of her right hand—her well-manicured fingers are spread out and rest right smack in the middle of her tummy.

Coincidence? Maybe so.

There's no mention of B's pregnancy in the official description of the campaign, which was shot by famed photographer Terry Richardson and is set to break in the U.K. next month as part of House of Deréon's exclusive collection for British retailer Selfridges & Co.

"With the collection's global nomadic theme," reads a release from the company, "the campaign takes cues from the inspiration behind Beyoncé's latest album 4 and depicts her as a modern day nomadic woman of the world."

Or as her and Jay-Z's recent trip to Croatia proves, a nomadic pregnant woman of the world.

A separate campaign for the fall collection shot by Tony Duran launches later this month, also in the U.K. However, no baby tease in this one. A wild-manned Beyoncé is shown covered up by a snake print hooded jumper.
