Has anyone noticed that xxs is huge in the seat of pants/ Iv bought these pants since they came This year I cant find any style that isnt too big

That's because they are not making clothing for slim people anymore, it's Huge Wide Leg Pants, and huge in the behind area as well.

I have slim legs and don't have a huge caboose, and it is terrible trying to find clothing that fits!

If you are slim these days, you're out of luck it seems. We are being phased out!!

Americans have continued to become more overweight over the last half century.

Medical Journal fact.

Zara caters to slim bodies as does Banana Republic. The better more expensive lines like Theory cut more for a slim fit. I have great luck for casual pants with LLBean who have slim leg pants. Overall, my 2X friend has a much harder time finding clothing at brick and mortar stores than I do. And, no we are not being phased out. Step away from QVC and you will find a lot of manufacturers that are cut small.

I don't like Zara or Banana Republic - and don't appreciate being told to.

I only know that I used to shop here at QVC and find items which fit my body type, and now it's very difficult to find jeans that fit here.

I am not a plus size, and it seems now that regular sized jeans have legs that are plus size, which is ridiculous!

wow. She was just trying to be helpful and make a suggestion.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I find that what you're saying is true. Some clothing lines on the Q have unusual proportions for pants. I've had a really hard time finding dress pants. I used to like Isaac Mizrahi's pants, but he seems to be making ankle pants, and they're just too short for me. I did have luck with Laurie Felt jeans. They're cut perfectly for me.

Why is it I have to fear saying the truth?

Jeans are no longer being made to fit my slim body type, and I'm not the only one.

Face it.

No, you're not the only one. That's why it's hard for me to find pants as well. The balloon out in butt and waist area, or they're too short. I find NYDJ to have an odd fit too.
