Presentation for NJDJ

Telling us about sizing. Heres the thing these jeans will not make you look like a smaller size,no matter what is said. Be the size you are and like yourself.

@Group 5 minus 1   I don't think it's about making you look a different size, it's about fitting you properly.   I don't buy a lot of NYDJ jeans but I definitely have to size down to a 0 from a normal 2.

Is this”size down” new or only for QVC?

I bought a pair of NYDJ from Chico’s a couple of years and they are my usual Chico’s size.

I have never bought  any brand of jeans that said to size down---but.....then I did try DG2 jeans and sized down---they did fit but were so form fitting that every bump and lump was accentuated---not a good look on me or any of the other models of any size, IMO. I am a solid 12---not a 10 or a 14--have been a 10 before which I liked, but the 12 is me. Have since decided that I will go back to the stores, in person, to try on jeans.

        I don't know what that means.  It's about getting the proper FIT.  It's not about ego.

@Group 5 minus 1   I bought my first pair of NYDJ Maryland style jeans from Nordstrom, could have been their initial year in business.  To this day, I prefer that style above all the rest NYDJ offers. As I did when I bought the first pair, I frequently size down from what I expected to fit when I came into the store.  I love denim but it's also one of the things I try to buy locally.

Chico's sales people often recommend sizing down for their jeans, so that's another source where I take more than one size to try.

I actually considered ordering today's NYDJ offering, but I need to try on the pair I bought last year.  I seem to remember the waist and derriere had gotten annoyingly  saggy.

I size down as advised on a pair of NYDJ jeans a few years ago and couldn't get the darn things on.  Never tried them again.  Some of the models who say they sized down look like stuffed sausages.

@Group 5 minus 1   yes, in NYDJ I have to wear a zero.   I'm a size 2.   I wear a 2 in CCB, Susan Graver.  Im also a 2 in BM stores, Gap, Banana Republic and Nordstrom

I often think that the NYDJ guy just likes snapping the model's pants!   Smiley Happy
