Diane Gilman did not work for me. Did not like at all.  I do love Gloria Vanderbilt "Amanda" jeans in Kohls. I'm a size 16. They fit great

Re: Jeans That Fit --- Help

[ Edited ]

I was close to giving up on finding anything other than a boyfriend Jean, until I tried the high waisted bum lifting jeans ( ( FYI betta butt jeans) the high waist gives a smooth line so there are no bumps or muffin top, and the bum lift gives a nice shape to a flat bum (:

eta....I meant to say YMI, not FYI.

There is no brand that fits everyone because the fit is so exact.  Good luck!  We'll all be hunting together.


 

So true.  You can be the same height and weight as someone else, but that doesn't mean the same jeans will fit both the same.

I love Gloria Vanderbilt jeans.  Sears use to carry them.  You may be able to get them on line.  I am curvy, small waist and my weight is in my hips.  These jeans fit perfectly.  I have some from a few years ago.  I also have a pair of DG2 from HSN.  They are comfortable.  Denim and Company has nice jeans too.

There's a lot for you to try.  I personally would not buy D Gilman's jeans because they stink like petro chemical.

 

@There are lots of brands to choose from for your size.  Melissa McCarthy's line on HSN, Good American jeans @Nordstrom's only go up to your size.  NYDJ is running a sale on skinny jeans right now for $54.00 (I have these and love them) these go up to your size as well.

@Marybella Jones of New York is now on line.  I signed up and receive emails from them - sweater updates, today it was outerwear, etc.  They seem to have a nice assortment of clothing - like they used to - not too extreme anything.
