Maternity clothes ... again!

[millie1]

Sorry ... still seeking the elusive pair of a perfect fit, not too expensive black trousers! Has anyone bought from Mamas & Papas? If so, what is the quality and fit like? Have one pair on order from Seraphine but they may be too short (and awful on me!!). Tried a couple of IO pairs but not a great fit and worried they looked like expensive tracksuit bottoms!! Just want to order something to compare with those from Seraphine. TIA

Bumping ... more people around this morning!

Not tried M&P but I too am looking for a faithful pair of black trousers which is proving hard! Got some from a place in London sent up and they are lovely but really long so my mission this weekend is to find a pair that can be worn with flat shoes!

Was it mail-order/on-line with the London place Finallypregnant? If they have a website, would you mind giving me the URL please? It's a bad time to be looking too with all the sales starting .... grrrr! Happy hunting!

Sure,

They were from Crave. here is the website. their stuff is a bit pricey but good quality. I got a few bits for more formal work stuff that I have coming up.

Thanks FP ... have my eye on 2 pairs from Crave (just to try, mind you!) - they only have them in long in my size but maybe I'll order anyway just to try them on. Ta!

with my first pregnancy i loved the fit of jojomamanbebe and they do different lenghts which is birlliant if you're on the wide and small side of things.
this time i am slimmer (go figure) and jjmb doesnt fit as well, but i found a shop called seraphine near me and i love the fit of their trousers-they're quite low waisted so am sure i will have to buy a high waisted one when i get more pregnant but for now they are brilliant. they sell online too.
everybody raves about formes but they look horrid on me.
a friend swears by vertbaudet, and i know many who have only ever bought isabella oliver...
i think you have to try a few and be prepared to send them back if they are not great... we are all different.
good luck!

Seraphine are great Beforesunrise ... got a pair of cords & 2 tops from them and they're comfy and a super fit. Would also recommend them.

doh- perhaps if i had read your original post in its entirety rather than just the first line.... sorry, can i blame the baby brain?? anyhow, am glad the seraphine stuff fits. i am considering getting their brown cords as they just look bril (tried them on in the shop but then i decided to get jeans instead)

Just want to update folks ... the Seraphine trousers arrived this morning (wasn't that quick!). They are a fabulous fit - neat on bum and a good fit on tummy/ - only prob is I ordered regular length as long was out of stock and they're a tad short .. but long is back in today! So, heartily recommend them - they're the bootleg cut.
