Reviewed & Approved
For one-stop shopping for every kind of maternity wardrobe need, we recommend Ingrid & Isabel. ASOS also sells a wide range of maternity styles, from formal to casual and everything in between, with free shipping and returns.
“Gone are the days of hiding your bump, and now is the time to show it off!” Stitch Fix stylist Nicole Scudder tells Verywell Family. “There is no right or wrong time to start buying maternity clothes. If you are excited to add some maternity pieces to your closet, go for it.”
With that in mind, we looked at all the online retailers of maternity clothing and evaluated their variety of fashionable products, size inclusivity, price range, return policies, and shipping rates to come up with this list.
Here are the best places to buy maternity clothes.
Ingrid & Isabel
Pros
- Wide variety of clothing
- Pregnancy and postpartum options
Cons
- Limited colors
Ingrid & Isabel tops our list thanks to its variety of everyday pieces you can add to your wardrobe, including jeans, dresses, undergarments, and more. For Ingrid & Isabel, it all started with the Belly Band, a maternity band worn over unbuttoned or unzipped jeans, pants, skirts, and shorts. The band keeps your pants in place, and your belly smooth and supported.
Since then, the brand has grown to include all the basics: leggings, camis, support wear, T-shirts, dresses, denim, and more. The pieces are simple yet stylish and well-made. It’s a one-stop shop for modern parents-to-be. You’ll appreciate that every product has a “fit notes” area that outlines how it fits, with details such as how the garment’s size should compare to your pre-pregnancy sizing, inseam measurements, and how many months pregnant the models in the photos are for comparison.
Return policy: $10 return fee, fee waived for store credit or exchange; must be postmarked within 30 days of purchase | Shipping options: $6 for orders under $49.99; $10 for orders over $49.99 | Prices: Mid-level price points
ASOS
Pros
- Tons of maternity options
- Wide range of price points
Cons
- Options can be overwhelming
Just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you don’t want to be on-trend. Luckily, ASOS has a ton of fashion-forward pieces in its maternity section at budget-friendly prices. Don’t worry about being limited to outdated patterns and bland neutrals. The site offers fun dresses, rompers, tops, loungewear, basics, and more.
ASOS makes it super easy to stay stylish on a budget. We love that the brand has tons of maternity jumpsuits ranging from colorful to classic, like this black beach jumpsuit. As stylist Nicole Scudder tells Verywell Family, “Jumpsuits are definitely trending. Whether you are wearing a knit style with a baseball cap and sneakers, or a wide leg style with jewelry and wedges, you will find this style to be so versatile in a maternity wardrobe.” Plus, ASOS makes shopping online super easy with speedy shipping and free returns.

A Pea In The Pod
Pros
- Search by designer function
- On trend
Cons
- Site is less focused on everyday staples
The unofficial home of designer maternity wear through the first trimester and on, A Pea in the Pod is a great place to shop for flattering styles at any stage of your pregnancy, including postpartum. If your budget is higher, you can shop fashion-forward brands like Frame, Citizens of Humanity, Splendid, and Paige. The retailer even has a designer denim section, which features leading denim brands’ maternity offerings. A Pea in the Pod makes it easy to search for favorite designers, and now there’s no maternity filter needed! We also love how they helpfully categorize the site for specific needs like “Trending,” “Baby Shower Dresses,” and “Luxe Deals.”
Return policy: $11.95 return charge within 30 days of purchase, unworn and with tags attached | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $149+; economy shipping $11.95 | Price: High to mid price points
Kindred Bravely
Pros
- Inclusive color options
- Multitude of styles, fabrics, and cuts
Cons
- Underwear cannot be returned or exchanged
Kindred Bravely touts itself as a company selling clothes “designed by moms for moms” and it shows, especially in its wide ranging option of undergarments. Not only does it sell maternity and postpartum bras and underwear, it also has a number of various lines of both items. These include Signature Cotton underwear, Grow With Me briefs and undershirts, and leak-proof underwear. The hands-free pumping and nursing bras are also a big hit postpartum.
Many of the signature products, like the Bamboo Seamless No Rub Thigh Savers, come in either maternity or postpartum style. Kindred Bravely always offers a wide range of colors to match all skin tones.
Return policy: Free returns within 90 days of order, no returns of underwear | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $75+ | Price: Relatively inexpensive
H&M
Pros
- Affordable basics
- Multi-packs of best sellers
Cons
- Trendy options may not last for a second pregnancy
If you’re looking for comfort and style but don’t want to spend a lot on clothes you’ll only wear for six months, H&M has everything you need at the right price.
Just like with the brand’s non-maternity options, you’ll find hundreds of comfy yet trendy items, most below $50, that you can mix and match with items you already own. Or you can create an all-new capsule wardrobe. The options are always changing with whatever comes into style, which is nice for younger parents who don’t want to compromise their style during pregnancy. H&M also offers two-packs for many staples, like tank tops, bras, or this affordable two-pack of black bike shorts.
Return policy: Free returns in store; $5.99 return fee via USPS | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $40+ | Price: Inexpensive
GapFit
Pros
- Frequent sales and discounts available
- Wide variety of sizes, styles, and lengths
Cons
- Maternity clothes cannot be returned in store
Most doctors recommend exercise during pregnancy, but finding the right workout clothes for a growing belly isn’t alway easy. Gap’s activewear line GapFit has many options in its maternity section, and they’re perfect for pregnant people who want to keep up with their active lifestyles without feeling restricted.
Made to grow and move with you, Gap’s leggings come in all sorts of cute fits and patterns. The tops and sports bras are made with breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics. Many of the tops have ruching along the sides for more belly room and are designed not to chafe. Fans of Gap’s maximum coverage no-show blackout leggings will be happy to know these are also available in maternity sizes.
Return policy: Free returns by mail within 30 days | Shipping options: Free shipping with orders $50+ (requires sign-in) | Price: Inexpensive to moderate
Summersalt
Pros
- Classic styles
- Fits true to size
Cons
- Minimal bust support
Summersalt isn’t a maternity-specific brand, but the company’s flattering swimwear put it on the map, and now the line includes pieces adapted for pregnant people.
The brand’s maternity one- and two-piece swimsuits don’t look frumpy at all. In fact, they’re trendy, structured, and fit like a dream. The suits have what the brand calls “mama-friendly features” like flattering side shirring, an empire seam, a shelf bra with built-in soft cups for support, and adjustable back straps. The colors and patterns are fun, trendy, and understated. For mix and match styles, the Maternity Cinched High Rise Bottom can be ordered alone or with a top, so you can get an exact fit.
Return policy: Free returns within 30 days | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $95+ | Price: Expensive
Seraphine
Pros
- 3-in-1 styles are versatile and long-lasting
- Wide range of warmth levels
Cons
- Expensive for one-season items
Have you ever tried to button up a coat over your bump? For expecting parents in cold climates, bump-friendly maternity outerwear is a must-have. Seraphine is a fashion-forward maternity and parenthood clothing line known for specialty items, like formal wear, and for its large selection of work-friendly clothes, basics, and outerwear.
Seraphine’s three-in-one maternity parkas are designed to grow with you through your nine months and then adapt to post-birth babywearing. There’s a wide variety of styles and options like the classic parkas, a rain jacket, a casual khaki jacket, and stylish cashmere wool coats for work and nicer occasions. The brand even has a coat for Dad to wear with the baby.
Return policy: Free returns within 30 days, unworn and with tags | Shipping options: $6.95 delivery fee | Price: Expensive
Storq
Pros
- Comfortable basics
- Size inclusive
Cons
- Thin fabric on leggings
- Higher cost
Storq came onto the scene with a simple mission—to make maternity and nursing clothes for modern parents who don’t want to trade in their style for nine months. Nothing it sells is overcomplicated, but the higher prices reflect a commitment to better fits and quality fabrics.
The Storq collection is small and curated, and most of its best-selling pieces are elevated basics and loungewear. We love the Anytime Overalls, Three-Piece Lounge Set, and Luxe Joggers.
Return policy: $8 return fee; free at in–person Return Bar | Shipping options: Free shipping on orders $75+ | Price: Expensive
Blanqi
Pros
- Wide range of styles
- Neutral color options
Cons
- Runs small
- Limited sizes
Aside from round-the-clock comfort, support for your growing belly and body is key when shopping for maternity clothes. Blanqi’s line of support wear is tailored for maternity, postpartum, and beyond—and its leggings are long-time best sellers for a reason. All styles have built-in seamless support, light compression, and breathable moisture-wicking fabric.
Blanqi fans love the brand’s traditional over-the-belly support leggings because they help lift and redistribute the weight of your bump and have added back support. There are also hip-height leggings for everyday wear, SportSupport leggings designed for workouts, and postpartum high-waisted leggings with gentle midsection compression to smooth and secure your post-baby belly.
The leggings, along with the rest of Blanqi’s game-changing support wear, come in mostly neutral colors like black, gray, white, and blue, so they won’t go out of style if you plan on expanding your family in the future. As you stock your closet, remember Scudder’s advice: “A black pair [of leggings] is a total must have.”
Return policy: Returns must be within 30 days; $6 return fee | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $100+ | Price: More expensive, but with frequent sales
Stitch Fix
Pros
- Personalized styling
- Shipped right to you
- Discount for buying whole box
Cons
- Can’t try multiples of one style
- Relies on someone else’s taste
Stitch Fix is a convenient option for people who love personal suggestions and a curated shopping experience. Each user is matched with a stylist who will hand select clothing based on your pregnancy stage and budget. You can do this as an occasional option, or on a monthly basis, subscription-style.
You try on the clothes you receive at home, keep what you want, and send back the rest. Free shipping and returns make the process super easy. Busy parents-to-be simply take an online style quiz to get started, and your $20 stylist’s fee gets credited toward anything you decide to keep. Even better, there’s a 25% discount if you purchase your whole box.
Return policy: Free returns | Shipping options: Free shipping | Price: User sets budget, each item varies in price

Pros
- Rotating monthly wardrobe
- Ability to try new clothing

Return policy: Free returns | Shipping options: Free shipping | Price: $88 per month
Amazon Essentials
Pros
- Fast shipping
- Perfect for basics
Cons
- Limited fashion-forward styles
It’s no surprise that Amazon Essentials has created a nice line of maternity wardrobe staples. While the mega-retailer may not stand out in the exciting fashion category, it sure is useful. Inexpensive, with fast and free shipping for orders above $25 (or all free for Prime members), and free returns, Amazon makes it easy to stock up on essentials and get them quickly.
While the clothes may not last for multiple pregnancies, if you’re in the market for some basics, this is a great source. We love that many of the options, like a maternity tank, come in a two-pack with multiple color options.
Return policy: Free returns | Shipping options: Varies, but often free shipping for orders $25+; always free for Prime members | Price: Inexpensive
PinkBlush
Pros
- Wide range of styles
- Multiple color options for many dresses
Cons
- Limited size range
Whether you need a dress for a formal event, a baby shower, or everyday comfort, PinkBlush has you covered. It has many maternity dresses in a huge range of styles from very formal to very casual. Another benefit is that many of its more basic dresses come in a rainbow of color options, so it’s easy to scoop up an LBD and a more colorful option.
PinkBlush sorts its dresses in helpful ways, making it easy to search for “evening dresses,” “photoshoot gowns,” “tall-friendly dresses,” and so much more.
Return policy: 30-day return policy, $5 fee | Shipping options: Free shipping for orders $100+ | Price: Wide range
Madewell
Pros
- High quality denim
- Range of styles
- Both over-belly and side panel options
Cons
- Can only be bought online
Fans of Madewell denim will love that there are lots of maternity options that will work throughout your pregnancy.
“Although you may only be wearing these pieces for a short time, I always recommend investing into higher-quality staple pieces you know you will be wearing on repeat, like these maternity jeans by Madewell,” Scudder tells Verywell Family.
If jeans are a go-to piece for you, choose a more basic style and invest in a pair you can wear all the time. Madewell’s denim is sized based on pre-pregnancy waist measurements.
Return policy: $7.50 return fee; free for Madewell Insiders (free to join) | Shipping options: $3 shipping fee; free for Madewell Insiders (free to join) | Price: Expensive
How We Selected the Best Places to Buy Maternity Clothes
While we have shopped for our own maternity clothes, we also researched the best places to shop. We aimed for sites that offered a variety of styles and sizes, a range of prices, and comfortable clothes that pregnant women want to wear. Other factors included our stylist recommendations, shipping and return policies, and size inclusivity, which is important if you’re expecting multiples. User reviews (and complaints) were also helpful to find brands that live up to their promises of quality, accurate sizing, and customer service.
