Preemie clothes would have been too small for my daughter, who was 20.5 inches and 8 lb 6 oz. She swam in newborn clothes for a couple weeks, but wearing something too big won't hurt the baby.
I would only suggest buying preemie clothes if you have an actual preemie, a strong family history of small babies on both sides, or if you are of an ethnicity that usually has smaller babies (many of my friends from South Asia have small babies, around 5-6 pounds, so it would be worth it for them to buy a couple preemie outfits.)
