I'd done a little research on old YLF threads and come up with thoughts from other pretty pear shapes regarding their favorite jeans...and at Nordstrom's she tried on several kinds, including the J Brand...but for women who have fuller thighs and calves, they are just too tight to be flattering. She ended up with the David Kahn Nikki straight legs, which on her looked like a figure flattering skinny jean, in a shiny dark wash with contrasting yellow stitching. They are those kind that are 40 percent polyester, I hope they don't end up stretching out too much for her. It's her first pair of really nice brand new jeans, she was so happy! Thanks for all the info from here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48738 Sun, 08 Feb 2009 08:27:35 +0000 judy 48738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Marianne! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48735 Sun, 08 Feb 2009 05:12:59 +0000 Eva 48735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I googled them, I found some showed low rise and some rises were higher. Maybe they have a high rise and low rise version. </p> <p>Thanks Marianne. I am looking for a skinny for curvy fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48729 Sun, 08 Feb 2009 02:47:51 +0000 Maya 48729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm I googled them and they are considered low rise, and would be low rise for me and I'm much shorter than you. How weird. I don't understand how rises work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48707 Sun, 08 Feb 2009 00:16:48 +0000 marianne 48707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Judy, it was at Les Amis. I should have mentioned that. They were in the back of the store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48702 Sat, 07 Feb 2009 23:40:53 +0000 judy 48702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianne, you are in Seattle, right? May I ask what local store they are 50 percent off at? I have a friend visiting who is looking for just this kind of jean! Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/high-waisted-curvy-skinnies-alert#post-48690 Sat, 07 Feb 2009 22:00:53 +0000 marianne 48690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today at a local store I tried on J Brand cigarette style #7014 (they were 50% off so I wanted to check them out). They have high rise (hit me almost at my belly button) and apparently it's "curvy" fit, as I found out when I googled them - they were indeed too curvy for me, but I thought it may be useful info for other ylfers. I tried them on in ink wash and they run a little big. </p>
