    Plus Sized Maternity Clothes

    Hi! I'm in Melbourne and am having trouble finding plus sized maternity wear...
    I'm currently about a size 20.
    My last pregnancy 4 years ago I lived in trackies and tshirts and felt awful so this time round I would like to celebrate my pregnancy!

    Does anyone know of online stores or shops around Melbourne that sell plus sized maternity wear?

    I found that I didn't actually end up maternity shaped - more like Homer Simpson...
    So size 26 normal jeans and my hubby's xxxxl men's shirts were the go most of the time.

    I did find a few shirts at Ripe (Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn) that were big enough too. Their XXL is size 18-20 pre-pregnancy.

    And, if you sew or can bribe someone who does you have some more options.

    Check out Autograph, their clothes work very well during pregnancy. I swear some styles are maternity. Just grab the next size up and items with a bit of stretch. With pants grab a belly band to help as your tummy gets bigger. Check out the sales racks, I have picked up jeans for $15 and some tops for $5 and $10 a piece.

    You may also want to look at the "Sara" line by Ezibuy. It is not maternity wear but they are gorgeous plus size clothes. And with the fashions at the moment of tunic tops and empire line tops they will do the job.
