Are there any nice drawstring skirts and trousers in the shops at the moment?

I am pregnant and attempting to find an alternative to maternity trousers, none of which fit me properly.

Last pregnancy I had a fantastic linen drawstring skirt from White Stuff which sadly fell apart last summer after so much use. I'd love to find something similar to this..

I've had a quick look online at Fat Face and White Stuff but can't see any drawstring stuff..it all seems to be buttons and poppers..

We are pretty rural so I have one shopping trip at the end of the month down South to stock up.

Has anyone seen anything nice and drawstring recently that I could have a look at?

there are some super cheap ones in hennes - 50% linen & 50% viscose. they were about 7 quid or so. knee length. they weren't maternity wear, but big hennes branches do maternity clothes too, so you could look there.

Thanks that sounds great - I will put Hennes on my list of places to look

My White Stuff skirt wasn't maternity, so I'm looking for non-maternity stuff that I can just wear below the bump with a long maternity vest...

I hate maternity wear! It's so utterly shapeless and unflattering
