Hey guys, I?m a fashion student in Southampton doing my masters project on maternity wear and consumer behaviour. I thought this would be a really interesting area to target as my sister was pregnant last year and it was a nightmare trying to find her fashionable, comfortable and affordable clothing.

So if you have time to take a quick survey for me, takes less than a minute, I would be so grateful but it would be really interesting to hear your views on maternity wear in general.

I'm trying to come up with a concept and marketing strategy to help better this market as I think there is lots of room for improvement.

Well thanks for your time in reading this and any help is help Good luck with everything.

Oooh what a great idea - I'm currently working on an article about maternity clothes and how the world seems to expect women to give up looking nice and sexy when they get pregnant. I still want to look like a woman and not a tent!!!

Maternity wear - Enough black and grey already.

Also, no gigantic floral patterns or pastel stripes, for the love of God. I'm an adult, not a cast member of 'In the Night Garden'.

One other thing - it's jolly difficult getting maternity trousers in more than one standard length, despite the fact that tall girls and shorties get pregnant too.

dizzydixies · 17/03/2009 21:26

ROFL Tamlin - I pretty much looked like Oopsy Daisy throughout too

larger ladies get pregnant as well as short and tall ones too

I agree dizzy... and if you're large and tall like me, you're confined to all things black / grey and sack-like.

I'm due in June and not looking forward to a summer in black... I want some colour in my life!

IwishIwasmoreorganised · 18/03/2009 10:32

Done! Would be interesting to kow the results if you have time to update us when it's done!

dizzydixies · 18/03/2009 14:26

lucyec have you tried the New Look 'inspire' range? its for 'larger' ladies and you might manage something there that won't break the bank?

I've had 3 summer babies and spent those summers in black sacks too!
