Tall Moms - looking for maternity work clothes

16isourluckynumber · August 2016

Anyone have any good sources for Tall/Long length maternity clothes, especially business-attire appropriate? I work in a highly corporate environment and need at least a couple of suits for the next 6 months. I tried Pea in a Pod and the pants were extremely unflattering (and too short).

I'm 5'9" so not ridiculously tall but I can't do the typical 29-30" inseam. I need more like 34-35" or at least 33" with flats.

Yes, I just read through all 4 pages of the maternity clothes section before posting this. If there was something I missed, I'm happy to be redirected.

I am 5'9" also and have bought most of my pants from Gap for work. I am actually ok with regular inseam but they also have tall inseam too. My biggest problem is a long torso so shirt lengths are difficult for me. I have a hard time using my non-maternity shirts with maternity pants because they don't cover up the band.

I'm just starting to delve into tall maternity clothing for the first time (I'm 6'0"), and am unfortunately finding options for pants limited, particularly in dress clothes. Fortunately I don't currently work in a highly corporate environment and so don't have to worry about wearing suits everyday, but think I'm going to end up wearing a lot of dresses/skirts. Could dresses/skirts with a blazer be an option for you @16isourluckynumber? For what it's worth, here is a list of sites I found for tall maternity clothes (though it's 2 years old): https://prettytallstyle.com/tall-girls-resource/tall-maternity-clothes/. Unfortunately, in a quick look at some of the sites, there still aren't many dress pant options.

I'm 5'9" and just got my first maternity Fix from Stitch Fix https://stitchfix.com/referral/3537628 . They sent these absolutely amazing pants that I'm wearing as I write this, and I actually had to turn the cuffs up a tiny bit (which looks really cute). They are navy blue skinny pants by Liverpool, and they fit a bit like leggings and look great with a loose top. I could absolutely get away with these at work (with a blazer and pointy flats), and I'm sure there are other styles from that same brand. These are the first work-appropriate pants I've worn this entire time (I've been living in dresses and VInce Camuto and Butter by Nadia jersey pencil skirts).
