Tall pregnant women where the hell can I get a decent pair of jeans

Currently expecting ds2 and cannot find a decent pair of jeans or any clothes to fir

I've managed to get a pair of ASOS and that is it. I normally shop n the tall ranges at places and I'm sure when I was having DS1 more places had a tall/maternity crossover ranges (Topshop, next etc)

Feeling really fed up as having to send yet another pair of jeans back. Also noticed most shops that do a maternity range literally just do jeans in one leg length. Next do a long but at 31 inches it's not really that long.

So far I've tried ASOS, Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, very, river island, H&M, Next. I found some on Long Tall Sally but they were nearly £60!!!! Can anyone help?

I’m 5’9” and found H and M mama range fitted. They were the skinny style though so I suppose could get away with not being quite long enough. I usually need a minimum 33” leg. I also wore leggings a lot!

I'm not tall, but I personally found that sizing up in high waisted jeans was loads better than maternity jeans. All the ones I bought were constantly falling down; over and under bump ones. I bought a few pairs of Primark stretchy super high waist jeans two sizes bigger and they were great.

I’ve got some from Mamalicious which are a 34 inch inside leg.

RegalRags · 01/09/2020 15:32

I got mine in new look i think the inside leg is a 34" in long

@RegalRags

I got mine in new look i think the inside leg is a 34" in long
I've just had a look on their website and pretty much everything is out of stock unless you're a size 8 or 22 😢

I might try this - sometimes if I get there as it opens I can find a pair of jeans long enough in Primark.

I'm 5"9 and a size 10/12 and the maternity range skinny jeans fit perfectly in length, only about £25 aswell xx

Topshop maternity does various leg lengths on their jeans and they have a sale on now. I just got some 34 length from there, I think they also do 36

Iminaglasscaseofemotion · 01/09/2020 16:10

I got 2 pairs from river island in long length about a month ago. I'm generally a 34 leg.

TheIckabog · 01/09/2020 16:14

Seraphine jeans do longer sizes I think, maybe try there?

redferrari · 01/09/2020 16:20

Gap maternity have tall size

aToadOnTheWhole · 01/09/2020 17:13

Was going to second new look but I see you've already tried. Keep looking on there though, there was a bank holiday sale so they went like hot cakes.

I'm 5'11, new look skinny jeans fit me well

I'm 5'9 and had to roll up the jeans they were so long. I got them half price as well. Highly recommend.

gettingprepped · 01/09/2020 22:37

I’m 5’ 10”, saw a recommendation on here for Lily and Ribbon and bought a pair from them - Sofia over-bump maternity jeans. They’re comfy, classy, and long - 34” leg. About £45 but worth it, I think, for something I could wear every day.

PutBabyInTheCorner · 01/09/2020 22:41

I'm 6ft. Wouldn't buy expensive maternity clothes, personally. I got jeans from New Look and H&M. eBay is a good place to try though.

SephrinaX · 01/09/2020 22:47

I'm a 36" and I only got jeans/leggings from ASOS. I looked at LTS but they were asking crazy prices.

I stuck to dresses and tights for the majority of both my pregnancies. Whilst they don't have a specific tall or maternity tights range, Snag tight are the best. They explain the sizing on the website.

I'm 5'11'' and got a couple of pairs from Top Shop. But I know it's hit and miss a bit...

GrouchyKiwi · 01/09/2020 22:57

I got mine from Gap. They were lovely for babies 1 and 2. Baby 3 hated the waistband (apparently, based on her reactions when I wore them) so I lived in leggings in the end.

user1494666108 · 01/09/2020 23:02

Jojo Maman Bebe do great maternity jeans. Seraphine too. I’m tall (5.9) and Top Shop didn’t work for me.

EmilySpinach · 01/09/2020 23:11

How tall are you? I am 6’ and found maternity jeans in H&M.

Rainbowafterthestorm · 01/09/2020 23:49

I aware by river island. You can get the maternity molly type in long leg too.

VirginiaWolverine · 01/09/2020 23:59

Noppies. They are a Dutch maternity brand, and cut for women if a taller height than the UK average. Their jeans are also insanely comfortable.
