Maternity clothing : Shopping in Qatar!

Before getting pregnant I thought it would be easy to find maternity clothing, I was definitely wrong, specially in Qatar!. And if you do find a small corner in a mall it looks like it belongs to your grandma!. Is an impossible mission to find maternity clothing in Qatar, that is why I encourage maternity clothing companies and designers willing to open market to  contact LATC at: clientes@ladiesandthecity.net. This country is extremely maternity and children´s friendly so the company which hits first will not only be booming, but will have the market monopoly!. 

I know there´s always the online shopping adventure like Asos , pregnantfashionista.com or Pietro brunelli , but the risk involved buying maternity clothing in Qatar increases dramatically because of sizes, fitting, and energy, money and time consuming. It is not worth it and too difficult and definitely a lotery!.

Conclusion: Had to "oversize me" using a size 44-46 or more - I use size 38 normally-with no seams, plain lycra Tshirts, and long skirts with an elastic band!. Take a look at the last articles I got!. 

                                           Are you or have you been pregnant? 

                                          How did you find maternity clothing?

Antes de estar embarazada creía que sería fácil encontrar ropa de embarazada, pero no es así. Además, he podido comprobar que la ropa de embarazada, en la mayoría de los casos, es atroz!.En Qatar, es misión imposible encontrarla, así que animo a diseñadores y empresas fabricantes que quieran abrir mercado en este pequeño emirato, a ponerse en contacto con nosotros en clientes@ladiesandthecity.net porque van a tener el monopolio del mercado!. 

Sé que siempre me queda la compra online: Asos, pregnantfashionista.com o Pietro Brunelli entre otros pero el "riesgo" es demasiado elevado, teniendo en cuenta no sólo porque ya no sabemos qué talla tenemos en condiciones "normales" - sinó que al estar embarazada, es el más difícil todavía, ya que tu talla va  cambiando,  cada diseñador y marca tiene su propio tallaje ( que corresponderá o menos a nuestro concepto de tallaje) y la pérdida de tiempo y dinero al comprar online es una lotería!.

Conclusión: Al final he tenido que adquirir prendas convencionales 3-4 tallas más que la que normalmente llevo sin costuras en la parte superior, camisetas elásticas grandes y faldas con elástico. Estas son mis últimas adquisiciones!.
