Maternity clothes for tall people

Does anybody have any suggestions on where to shop for tall people?  I am just getting to the point where my regular clothes are starting to get tight and don't have much time left!!  I haven't had too much luck looking around yet. 

I am out in the west suburbs.  I would prefer to be able to try on before buying but it seems like a lot of places only offer tall online.  I ordered some pants from the Gap online but when they arrived I didn't really care for them.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!  Thanks!

Re: Maternity clothes for tall people

  • I'm 5'10" with long legs- almost impossible to find stuff long enough in stores without adding in the maternity factor.

    I ended up buying online (like I do for regular clothes)- the only local store that I went to was Belly Dance (but that is in the city).

    Good luck- I had a crazy time finding maternity pants and jeans long enough for me- I spent almost my entire pregnancy in skirts and dresses.

  • How tall are you? I am 5'8, and like the above poster I also wore a lot of dresses and skirts throughout my pregnancy.  I found a great pair of black work pants from JCPenney.  But overall I had to do a lot of digging around to find maternity clothes that I liked.  

    Oh!  And also check out the maternity section in Macy's at Oak Brook mall.  They have a lot of the same clothes that you find in Motherhood and Pea in a Pod, but the return policy is better and some items are even cheaper.

  • My best luck was with JcPenney and Motherhood Maternity for longer maternity pants.
  • I got all my pants at Motherhood Maternity...they have a few styles with 34" inseam.  Pea in the Pod does as well (same company), but they are twice the price or more.

  • Thanks for the feedback!  I am going to checkout JC Penny and Macy's this weekend.  Hopefully I will find something!  I imagine I will also be wearing a lot more skirts and dresses for the next several months...
