IS IT ME?

I find Angela the NYDJ model looks better in size 16 than the 14 they size her down into.

I do not know about Angela but I wear my regular size in NYDJ and they are fine. I once tried a size down like they suggest and they fit but I did not care for the way they looked.

@Bonkers1 - My husband made the comment that her pants were way too tight.

The first time I ordered these I went down a size, as the vendor said. No go. So I asked for a larger size. Sold out. The next time I ordered my regular QVC size. It still didn't work. I exchanged for the next size up, and that was too big. So I gave up. I must be between sizes, so I gave up.

Good thing QVC has lines that work for everyone!

@Bonkers1. IMO they put Angela in jeans that are much too tight to be worn in public and must be terribly uncomfortable. I'd be mortified to be on TV in the pants she wears.

Mind boggling. Who would ever be motivated buying?

@Bonkers1

I believe she looked BETTER in the larger size but I didn't feel either one was a good look for her.

All the models and hosts weat their pants too tight. They have stretch in them, so they can get them on, but they fit like tights.

Not a good look, imo.

I have had co-workers and relatives who wear their clothing so tight that it looks "shrink-wrapped". I prefer a draped look. They have told me out loud that I am UGLY and OLD-FASHIONED.

I think it's "personal taste" as to how you dress.

I thought the same thing .. do not like the wrinkles

around the knees and other places . too tight across

the rear as well ....

Yes .. with the stretch you can get them on ... but

not a good look ....

The Fabric appears thick more than average denim. Jmo.

I didn't see this but I think anybody looks better when they don't try to wear a size that is too small or overly tight on them. Some might feel that just because they are putting a smaller size on that this is better but if you have to go up a size from what you normally wear, then you should do it. A garment that is too tight does not make you look slimmer.

Why would anyone think tight clothes make them look thinner??? 🤔

The vendor for NYDJ seems to be a very nice man but I can honestly say I don't think this brand flatters anyone. It's not just the plus sized models. Louann, the blond model who does the split, was in a pair of jeans so tight I was embarrassed for her and I can't imagine what they felt like. A real live anatomy lesson.

Personally, I like my jeans to be form fitting, a littlee snug even, but they should be designed that way. We have all seen these same models and hosts in different brands that make them look great.

I don't care what size she wears.

@Bonkers1 and others: I've worn a size 2 in NYDJ since they came out, but I think they changed the sizing to be smaller than before..less fabric needed and false advertising.

I now wear a size 4 (haven't gained an oz.) which fits just like the size 2.

Own a couple of different styles of NYDJ and order my usual size. A few styles , are cut bigger such as barrel style. Don't care for the look of being so tight in crotch area and the way the model Angela looked. Have the back yoke band taken in a pinch so I get a better fit the waist . The NYDJ rep as another said seems very nice but the company gimmick of sizing down is goofy . Let them ship and accept back as returns for free by misguiding people.

Re: IS IT ME? / NYDJ size

I agree. When they put Angela in the size 14, it's too tight and doesn't flatter her nice curvy body. Then when you see her in a size 16, she looks comfortable her body is more attractive. Angela has such a beautiful Face and smile! When she models beauty products, her skin and features are so Beautiful‼️‼️ She has a super special Smile!!
I love watching her on the various shows and seeing her stunning looks! Ty.
