If you are Shenzhen goer, you can get stuff made there for a fraction of the price of anything you can buy in the shops. I invested in a pair of maternity jeans which I got from H&M on a visit to London which I am sure they will stock in the new HK store. Not daggy and I still where them around theo house now as they are super comfy and can accommodate my still fat tummy. Then I got 3-4 t-shirts made in Shenzhen for about $60 each and wore them to death after work and on weekends. it's gets monotonous wearing the same thing but not worth too much investment for a short time.

The Bossini on Queen's Road C, opposite the new H&M, carries the maternity and baby line. And I think the CWB one, near World Trade Centre, has it too.

Just walked into Bossini and noticed that they have started to sell some nice cotten maternity tops as well as jeans. Price looked reasonable. Yes, it's pretty outrageous buying maternity clothes in HK. There's a branch of maternity clothing shops called OIO I think. They have a store in TST ToysRUs that might have some affordable items on sale. Otherwise, I noticed that there are some people selling second-hand maternity clothes on Asiaxpat.com.hk. If you don't mind, might be a good way to pick up some good deals.

Inexpensive maternity clothes
At five months, I am already too big to fit into most maternity clothes in the designer maternity shops (e.g. Formes). Disheartened, I walked into Marks & Spencer, and was amazed to discover a wealth of big sized tops and bottoms (pants, shorts and skirts) with elastic waists (sizes 16-18). They are a FRACTION of the price of the maternity shops. I'll still check out H&M though!

The prices at Linea Negra are quite high. I really regret getting 2 pairs of trousers (one pair of jeans and another pair of black trousers) which cost me around $1000 each! And they are not as comfortable as the pair I just bought from H&M which were only $199!!!!:blahblah
