"I bought these much coveted trousers recently after having my eye on them for some time and they will go down as possibly my all-time best maternity buy. I no longer wear any other trouser for work. They really elongate the leg and make you look way taller and slimmer than you are. In fact I wonder if these trousers were tailored just for me! The material and cut are extremely flattering and look fabulous with the plum long-sleeved wrap top with chunky black beads. I just wish they would make the non-maternity version as I would buy them immediately after my baby is born! Don't even hesitate just buy them!"
Awesome trousers!

"My only complaint is that for the regular size they are still a long length and require heels, although with a trouser style black pant that is probably the best look.
Otherwise I simply love the true-waist look, the attached belt which is not only practical but stylish too.
The quality is top notch and perfect for dressing up or wearing for work. Gorgeous!"
A very good purchase

"I was pleasantly surprised to find how comfortable these trousers are. Most of my other maternity trousers are either too tight around my hips or I have to pull them up every 10 minutes. They are very stylish and no-one would ever know that they are maternity trousers. I wasn't sure what size to order as in regular trousers I'm a 10-12. In the end, I ordered a size 2 and the fit is perfect.
The only downside is that I'm only 5ft3 and so they are very long on me. (Hence only 4 starts for Fit). I've had to have the hems taken up even though I wear them with heels. I hope that Isabella Oliver start making a "Short" length or even a "Petite" Collection soon!"
Sizing Dilemma: Pre-Pregnancy or +1?

"This was my first maternity wear purchase and I did not have the liberty to try before purchase. I bounced back and forth between whether I should buy pre-pregnancy size or get one size larger.
It didn't occur to me that with pregnancy, comes curvy hips too. I find the style and design of the Garbo gives better allowance for the hips (as well as the growing belly).
Some over the belly designs are a little trickier to find the right fit for the hips, hence +1 for those and +0 for the lovely flattering Garbo trousers."
