I'm always getting my pants shortened, so perhaps I should try altering the waist too. Good idea </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-441110 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:42:02 +0000 Anonymous 441110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bran888, have you tried altering your jeans who gap? It's not a very expensive alteration and the results may surprise you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-441100 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:27:12 +0000 catgirl 441100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried these and frankly they did not work for me in any cut. I felt like they were all too low rise for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-441091 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:05:34 +0000 Ali 441091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found it worth trying them all on, rather than looking at the description and going for the one that you 'think' you are. I really like them, and don't have a problem with the quality of the denim (they are £70 here in UK- if that's not premium denim, I don't think my budget can take real premium denim...)</p> <p>Mind you I had to go to the Levis because Gap jeans in the UK seem to be a completely different shape to the ones I've bought before in the US - I had to go up a size, and they were still indecently low rise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440220 Sun, 09 Oct 2011 00:59:02 +0000 Daisy 440220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Brooks Bros Levi's do not stretch too much. I bought them snug and they stretch a little after wearing but don't get baggy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440190 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 22:56:26 +0000 Vicki 440190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bran888, I just looked at the GAP label and it says 27/4a Real Straight. Like CocoLion, I have a pair of premium denim jeans, named J. Brand, and adore them. I have them in Pure, White and Black, and they are pricey, but I love them. I bought the 811s and they are skinny jeans. That's why I was pleasantly shocked that the GAP 1969 line fit so well and felt comfortable. They were lighter and thinner and similar to my J. Brand. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440174 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 22:00:09 +0000 bran888 440174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Daisy. Have you had them for long? Do they stretch much? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440173 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:58:24 +0000 Daisy 440173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did not exactly try these. But I did get a pair of the Levi's for Brooks Brothers in Slight Curve. Straight leg jeans. I like them a lot. I am small but carry weight thru the hips and thighs. They are flattering for a straight jean. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440171 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:55:36 +0000 bran888 440171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey CocoLion...uneducated question: what is premium denim? The frustration that I have with most jeans is that they gap in the back, and I am constantly pulling them up, especially after they stretch out a bit which seems to happen fairly quickly :/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440169 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:52:31 +0000 bran888 440169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Vicki...do you mean the regular jeans or the skinnies? Are they "curvy"? I have a pair of the 1969 jeggings that I loved, but after 6 months of (admittedly frequent) wear, they're already stretched out...especially in the waist. I think I may have lost a few pounds too, because a lot of pants/skirts aren't fitting anymore... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440168 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:50:26 +0000 CocoLion 440168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried Curve ID. I took the on line quiz and it directed me towards the slight curve. But I found that the demi curve fit me better. However, I did not like the fabric as much as that found in premium denim (7FAM or True Religion or Paige). So I ended up only wearing them once or twice. Curve ID is good marketing but I still prefer the product quality of premium denim, however you will pay 2-2.5x more.</p> <p>I don't have any experience with GAPs 1969 brand, I tried some on and purchased but ended up returning because the item was duplicating something I already had. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440165 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:40:34 +0000 Vicki 440165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, I haven't tried the new levis yet, but I have had some very good luck with GAP's 1969 version and love the length and feel of these jeans. They have a bit of stretch, good color that doesn't fade and the right length for my shorter stature. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/levis-curve-id#post-440162 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:33:04 +0000 bran888 440162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone tried the new levis? I have a lot of trouble finding jeans that fit right, and it seems that they try to accommodate different body types...just curious </p>
