Target maternity clothes

So the Target stores around here have a totally pathetic selection of maternity clothes, so I might buy some from Target.com. If any of you have bought from them, do you find the clothes run true to size? I know some brands tend to run big or too small. Thanks for any help! :)

Re: Target maternity clothes

  • Most Target maternity stuff I've tried on runs small and feels cheap.  For similar prices, I would rather do Old Navy or Gap, though most of their stuff runs a little large.

  • I love the two pairs of Liz Lange maternity dress pants I bought from Target. They seem to be a bit shorter than the dress pants I've bought from Old Navy or Motherhood. Not too short for me, but I'm just 5'5". I also have a couple of Liz Lange sweaters and tees that I found on clearance. The sweater ran small/tight, but the tees were average.

    Yes This.  I've had good luck with both Old Navy and Gap.  With Gap I'm the same size as before pregnancy and Old Navy runs a little big for me so I try to go down a size.  I'm lucky in that our Old Navy has a maternity section so you can try stuff on, it makes it a little easier.

  • I bought myself some full panel liz lange jeans at Target and LOVE them.  They are VERY comfy and wash well- no shrinking, etc. They are really cute too.  I am a size 4 pre-preg (in women's sizes) and bought a 4 and they fit well with a little wiggle room.  I'm sure I'll be able to wear them the full 9 months.  Hope that helps!

  • I also second the Liz Lange full panel jeans! I got them on sale for $17 last week in a dark blue rinse and I wore them Saturday night with a sparkly top and actually felt cute :-). I wear a size 2 normally and the Size 2 maternity fit the same. My husband even said that my butt looked as good in those than they do in my $175 Seven jeans that I wear!!

  • I love the liz lange tank tops, I purchased my normal size and they fit great :)
  • Nah, Target clothes, maternity clothes especially, Suck marbles. The only thing worth getting from Target is the belly band... I like Kohl's for tops, but their sizes tend to run small & I am 26 weeks, still fitting into my AE size 0 jeans (thanks to the Beband)...
  • I had luck with the Kohl's pants (by motherhood). I got one pair at the Salvation Army and one at Kohl's.  I just got a bunch of stuff at Burlington, too.  

    I can't much help you with the Target stuff. I have one pair of pants that are Liz Lange from the thrift store. They're cute, but they don't have a full panel, so I doubt I'll wear then until I can do the under belly thing. 

  • I have a pair of Target maternity jeans they feel much bigger, plus they stretch throughout the day.  The butt and upper thigh area is really big, but I'm sure I'll grow into them.  But on the other hand, the Target work pants that I have are amazing and feel like pajamas!  They look really nice and were more true to size!

  • I LOVE Target's maternity clothes! They are so comfortable and best of all they are all (or mostly all) blends so no shrinking or bleeding or any of that other nonsense. I have a pair of Liz Lange full panel jeans from my first pregnancy that I absolutely love and a few tops as well that are super comfortable. I don't even look at Kohls for maternity clothes... I can't stand Kohls personally. I never find anything that fits or feels comfortable or that isn't 100% cotton or that requires dry cleaning. Old Navy has some great items and usually on sale--usually more of a selection than Target but it's a lot farther of a drive for me. HTH!
