Need help finding more maternity wear

Am going to London in just over 3 weeks - going to see a show and staying in a posh hotel - have got half of my outfit but cannot find a top i like anywhere.

I have tried Serendipity, Blooming Marvelous, Mothercare, Funmum, Isabella Oliver and tons more.

All i am looking for is a smart top that isn't back - the skirt i want to wear is black and will also be wearing black tights so fancied a cream top but everything is black

Don't really have time to physically go shopping before we go as we are on holiday in 2 weeks so was hoping to find something on the internet - can anyone suggest somewhere i haven't already tried?

TIA SC x

jojomamanbebe.co.uk?
they do nice evening stuff.

La Redoute or Vertabaudet, they both do nice Maternity stuff, or perhaps Next? Maybe try ebay?

Last year I bought some lovely embroidered 'going out' tops from Hennes, but I just bought them 2 or 3 sizes too big - they weren't fitted ones so they looked fine.

Don't hennes do maternity wear anyway?
try funmum.com or Formes?

SpringChicken, what about black with cream spots - I have one if you're interested and providing it's the right size. I also have a fitted pale blue sleeveless shirt of the over the head type i.e. no buttons.

Going through a similar thing myself. I needed something for this weekend and was adamant that I was not going to get black. Ended up giving in a going to the jojmamnbebe website. They have a black silk top on sale! It's going with black trousers.

This looked good here . Look like Diane von fursternburg (sp?)dresses for a fraction of the price.Normally £300 these are £60.

Asda now do maternity....Next is great......and I thought fun.mum had gone bankrupt! I had loadsa stuff from them last time and then returned some stuff and was told it had been bankrupted!!

Can't help you SC, but I've got a couple of bits I don't fit this time. Was going to pass to charity shop, but if anyone wants them ... just pay for P&P. They'd do for days at home. Two pirs of trousers, one straight leg check, other navy wide leg, and a pale blue polo shirt from blooming marvel. All size 14 ish.

MrsCodswallop · 04/03/2004 19:26

next

MrsCodswallop · 04/03/2004 19:27

Loads odf them here

smellymelly · 04/03/2004 19:29

H & M (Hennes) is a great reason for getting preggers!!!!
They do reasonably priced stuff, some funky most normal. Def worth a look.

bluestar · 04/03/2004 20:26

Another website I have come across is bellavalore.co.uk

stripeyjoe · 14/06/2005 09:42

Don't touch Bellavalore with a bargepole. They are useless and nothing but trouble.

mogwai · 14/06/2005 15:49

look on Ebay for last year's stock, you can get loads of bargains

Katts · 14/06/2005 17:30

I like the next site's model. Finally one who actually looks pregnant rather than stick figure with fake bump!

Jodie657 · 14/06/2005 21:56

i got nearly all my maternity clothes off ebay, most of which still had tags attached

notentsplease · 18/06/2005 20:44
