Jeans that actually fit.. help?!

MLeigh18

Hi,

I really need suggestions on where to find jeans that actually fit properly. i'd prefer to stay away from a tailor as long as possible, but I'm starting to think that's my only option.

My thighs barely squeeze into my American Eagle size 4 jeans, but the waist is about an inch or more (depending on if I've just washed them) too big!

They're stretchy jeans, that seems to be the only thing I can wear these days. And no I'm not pear shaped, i'm actually apple shaped I just have really thick strong thighs. So if anyone has any suggestions on where I can find good jeans that fit strong shaped women, please let me know!

Thanks!

I've had good experiences with the Gap curvy range.

Try New York and Co or Express

NY has some different style i got the boot cut, they fit pretty good all around.

Try Not Your Daughters Jeans ( sold at Nordstrom). Expensive but built for women, not stick figures. My cheap go to is Old Navy 'curvy' cut. Both have some spandex in them to fit o dr my swimmers legs and are nipped in at the waist. HTH

Levis is making a line of jeans which are shaped to fit differently proportioned women. You can check them out on their website and take a quiz to find your correct shape.

Target and Eddie Bauer both sell jeans which are cut one size smaller in the waist than the hips and have a relaxed thigh area. I have a similar issue and I've found these jeans to fit really well.

Good luck!

Levi's has out a new(ish) line called Curve ID. They have 3 different fits for each size. I went in and got measured. The Bold Curve fit me great; thighs aren't baggy, and the waist doesn't gap.

I recently bought a few pair at Kohls and they seems to fit really well. Everytime I wear them I am asked if have lost more weight. (plus) But I really haven't (minus). lol

You squished your booty into size FOUR jeans...and you're complaining?

I usually go for NY&Co or Express but you may even be able to find some at dept stores. I have the same body shape and I've been buying mine at Macy's lately because my size keeps changing recently and you can always find good bargains there around this time of year.

I know right!

I have a smaller waist (10" smaller than my hips) and more muscular thighs and calves, and I love The Dreamer jeans from Old Navy - under $40!

Rue21 (if you shop there) has a curvy range as well. I think anything labelled curvy might help. Those jeans tend to be forgiving around the hips and thighs, but a little more pulled in at the waist. They always give me less of that gaping problem!

I have a booty and thick thighs but smaller waist and I really like Gap Long and Lean, they fit great. Also, my daughter has the same problem only more than me and i found a pair of jeans that fit perfectly! no buckling at waist and no belt needed. she has more of a big booty than thighs though, anyway they are Cato premium.

My thoughts LOL!

I'm in between a 9 and 11 (still losing) so i just get cheap-ish pants at places like ross/marshalls b/c i know in a month or so they won't fit any more. right now i only have 2 pairs lol and one is getting too big

don't be deceive. I have a very very small booty. It's just my thick thighs.

Every gal deserves to have great-fitting jeans, no matter what size she is.

shes not complaining about her size. She is merely trying to find pants that will fit well. I understand her pain when you have a bigger thigh/hip ration than you do waist its hard to find jeans that fit you properly in the waist.

I find that Gap pants fit me well- pretty much the only jeans I can find that fit nicely.

try Levi's they have a Curvy line that is meant for different shapes, I have wide hips but small thighs and legs, so its always hard to find something in a size 14 that is nice and tight and flattering.

Levi is a bit steep in price but worth it

I have the exact same problem. The best jeans that fit me are either Gap or I really like AE's Slim Boot style jeans. I have some from Eddie Bauer too but the regulars are too short and the longs are too long.

Gap and Eddie Bauer after much searching

NoExcuseTina

Ann Taylor has a CURVY jean...and you might want to try Apple Bottom jeans...I am far from a 4, but both those have smaller waists and fuller hips/thighs
