Good quality maternity clothes

Can anyone recommend some maternity clothes brands that are good quality but don't cost the Earth? Does that even exist?

I have a few bits from ASOS but i find the quality pretty dire. The top I have on now I have washed twice and it's already bobbly and discoloured. I keep an eye on the jojo mama Bebe outlet but there isn't much on it at the moment.

Is there somewhere in the middle of these?

I got some things from New Look that have held up well without costing a fortune.

I had some bits from Asos that washed fine, maybe I was lucky. Found New Look good, some stretchy non maternity bits from H&M (H&M have some big voluminous dresses at the moment that might work well at the mo) and Primark and invested in one versatile expensive piece in sale. It does require a bit of time and creativity to find things that work that are reasonably priced.

Some of the non ASOS own brand stuff is nice. I've got a couple of Mamalicious dresses from there Smile.

Topshop maternity clothing is the same quality as their regular stuff , I had a couple of dresses from them that I sold on for half the price I had paid after my baby was born.

New look I found to be poor quality unfortunately.

ASOS is very hit and miss , their basic t shirts were fine but the dresses were poorly made.

With all of this in mind I'd definitely recommend topshop , both on eBay and brand new.

I used Facebook Marketplace for pretty much all my stuff- I didn’t find anything (apart from maternity tights) in the shops that I liked.

The Isabella Oliver and JoJo MB clothes are really good quality and even if you get them second hand you will be able to sell them on again without losing too much value.

Seraphine!

They have a sale on at the moment.

I also find most maternity clothes from ASOS really poor quality

I got a couple of nice tops from Next, also George at Asda are good.

Mum2b2020 · 24/01/2020 14:36

I second seraphine. Got some really nice dresses that I can also wear from work. Emma Jane for maternity bras, h&m for maternity nights and gap for the leggings.

MyCatScaresDogs · 24/01/2020 15:58

Seraphine is great quality and you can often pick up their clothes on eBay (same goes for all maternity wear). I found H&M good for tops, ditto New Look, also used Vertbaudet and La Redoute (latter was good for maternity pyjamas).

I haven't bought any maternity clothes since my first pregnancy in 2016 but I'm pregnant again so i will be digging them out!

I got some good stuff from Zalando. I wore their own brand maternity chinos for work.
Decent maternity leggings from M&S.
A couple of things from Next.

NameChange30 · 24/01/2020 16:10

Personally didn't rate Vertbaudet, poor quality.
New Look was OK.

Alarae · 24/01/2020 16:48

I bought a few nice tops and jumpers from Gap.

For leggings, I just bought a size up in the soft Primark ones. They seem to remain black when I put them on as opposed to the H&M Mama ones I bought.

Nelbert19 · 24/01/2020 17:57

Well I wish I hadn’t read this thread. Just gone a bit mad in Seraphine sale!

Cherryrainbow · 24/01/2020 18:26

When I was first pregnant I bought stuff from new look and h&m. Looks like that'll be my go to again with leggings and oversized stuff from Primark too x

Beck2277 · 24/01/2020 18:28
