I ordered four styles of ponte pants in two sizes each. The only ones I didn't order were the ones that said DCO. I discovered that the two styles that looked more like jeans (Kuts & VC) stayed up better than the two with a seam at the top -- regardless of size. The Kut Dianas are staying. I think they were the thickest ones of the lot. The second style, Two by Vince Camuto, have rivets that show a little too much for my taste. I won't bore you with photos because black doesn't really show up in photos. I will run the fit by DH who will see them IRL, although he doesn't have much of a critical eye.
