I've never bought this brand of jeans but I always hear about the '''curvation''. Common sense tells me that the law of gravity and loss of muscle tone is going to rule over the spandex that might be in pants. I'd be willing to guess that the curves that the seller draws attention to on the rear are the same with or without her jeans - but the seller promotes her jeans as doing the trick to lift. Jury still out on this TSV.
I don't think her pants do anything for the rear but, in general, I like WWC because there is no muffin top and they don't slide down. I think every other pant I have slides down throuout the day unless i adjust them with a safety pin. Alterations don't help because the pants stretch thoughout the day. WWC don't bag out.
The thing is, there are several different styles and fabrics of WWC pants, and they don't differentiate among them in the presesntations. They typically don't restock item numbers, they make new ones, so if I like a particular pair, it is hard to come back and buy the same. You can't assume by the fabric content that it is the same material because they have different qualities with the same content. So it's trial and error. I try to buy the inexpensive ones, so if they don't hold up, it's not a big loss. Some styles pill, but others have more substantial material and nicer finiish, and they don't. I have bought dozens of these pants and have found no rhyme or reason. Some have a blue banded material inside at the waist and some don't. I did buy a pair that was labeled "tushy lifter" and they had a seam in the back. I don't think they did anything special and will be on the lookout not to buy with that seam, which I didn't like, but not the end of the world. I didn't notice when I bought. I think in all presentations they claim the pants flatter the rear. I don't think they do much, though I do find that a closer fit flatters my rear. But I think that is personal.
These pants seem to be stretchy jeans on one side, and a reversible knit. Note both sides have a knitted waist.
I did buy a pair of her jeans and the fit was really nice. Her material was thinner than regular jean material. The pants I bought had a zipper.
I have bought some of her knit reversible pants, don't see anything gross about them. Spanx and Legacy have done them too. If there is something gross in the pants, I would just wash them, I would not wear the gross part against my body. Common sense.
