Maternity Jeans for the Taller Folks?

rastrau · February 2014

Does anyone have suggestions for maternity jeans for the taller ladies? I'm 5'9" and size 8 PP and it seems like most of the ones I've tried on so far are ideal for people a few inches shorter than me. I've been looking at online reviews, but after 22+ pages of reviews on Motherhood Maternity, the only comments on height/length that I saw were from people 5 or 6 inches shorter than me.

I'm currently making do with a pair from Target though they are about 2" too short and too narrow at the ankle (I like'em boot cut at least) but I needed something. Don't even get me started on Old Navy pants - I have never been able to wear them and pregnancy hasn't changed that.

Thanks Ladies!

I'm same height and size and the med longs at motherhood fit perfectly and are actually a bit too long to wear with flats. I couldn't find any longs on their website tho, but they have them in the store.

I am about 6'. I ordered online from rgmaternity.com. they are long enough for me, but the band is a little different than motherhood. Hope you can find some that fit!

I'm the same measurements. I haven't had any luck and this is my third pregnancy.

Right now I'm rocking maternity jeggings and boots. The jeggings are also too short but the boots hide that.

Second the long length from Gap. The regular size is good for me, and I'm between 5'6"-5'7", so I'd think a tall size would be ok for you.

I find their sizing to be kind of inconsistent, though, so try 'em on in person if you can, but they have free returns if you can't.

Thanks very much for the suggestions!! It looks like I'll be heading to the nearest Gap and MM stores this weekend

I have a pair of Paige jeans from pea in the pod. I'm 5'7" and had to have multiple inches taken off. They are super comfy and have a cute fit.

I'm 5'10 and I've only found Gap and ON to have lengths that actually work for me. All of the specialty maternity stores carry longs, but they're still not long enough. I'm not crazy about Gap and ON pants on the norm, but they've been find for maternity. I would say go a size down from what you usually wear, though, mine have been kinda baggy in the knee (if you get skinny jeans) and butt.

My friend who is 6' swears by Gap Long and Lean maternity jeans (and they do look fabulous on her).

Try Motherhood Indigo Secret Fit full panel jeans in "Tall". Amazing.

The longs at motherhood are a 34 1/2 " inseam. The selection is limited but they have some cute ones.

I have one pair from GAP that I love so much, then I have two from Motherhood that are long enough as well. I am so ready for warmer weather so I can wear capri pants and not have to worry about length anymore. I rotate the same 3 pairs of pants for work b/c they are the only ones long enough.
