Locations To Locate Comfortable Maternity Jeans For Taller Ladies

Every season it seems it's time to purchase a new set of clothing. Certainly the very basics are always in demand, including pants, undergarments, shirts, and jackets. But women who are pregnant have specific clothing needs, especially for those who are tall.

Finding tall maternity jeans can be difficult at best. Already the clothing choices are limited to maternity wear, but when you're dealing with a 34-inch inseam, it can be that much harder.

However, don't lose hope - there are brands and stores out there that work. For a breakdown of some of the best clothing retailers for tall pregnant women, keep reading.

RG Maternity

If you need maternity jeans with a 36-inch inseam, then RG Maternity is the store for you. This popular retailer for tall women recently started a line of maternity clothes that are perfect for the taller woman. You can also visit their website online at rgmaternity.com.

The Gap Maternity Store

Over the last few years, the Gap has gotten much better at providing options for the taller woman. Recently, they started offering tall maternity jeans both on their website and in select Gap stores. These jeans go up to a 34-inch inseam, but you should expect them to shrink at least an inch, so avoid putting them in the dryer.

J.C. Penney

Believe it or not, but J.C. Penney actually has a fairly extensive selection of maternity clothing for taller women. They are designed for ladies over 5'9" and offer longer rises and longer lengths (up to 36 inches in some styles). They're also affordable, though not always super stylish.

You can order online, through their catalog or at an actual J.C. Penney store - though most custom-fit items are done through mail-order.

Trendy Mamma Tailors

For $20 + $8 in shipping and handling, Trendy Mamma will take your favorite pair of long, perfect jeans and turn them into pregnancy jeans by attaching a pregnancy panel right to the jeans. If you can't part with your favorite jeans, then opt for an old pair that still fits.

Clothing from 7 For All Mankind

The 7 For All Mankind maternity jeans (often sold at Pea in a Pod) come in long or tall lengths, though they may need to be ordered through a retail store location. These jeans are hyper stylish, and you won't want to give them up after your pregnancy.

Finding tall maternity jeans is still difficult, but the range of choice and selection has increased exponentially over the last few years. As maternity clothing has expanded and grown, so have the choices when it comes to size. So, before you despair, try the retailers listed above. You're likely to find an appealing fitting pair of jeans.
