AG - sure, chase your joy! But also do check out the other r13 styles. Yoox often has them for $ - not right now, but it's always worth checking.
I do mean what I say when I talk about other body shapes. I could not make a similar pair of pants by Vince work (remember?) because of the fabric waddage. As another example, a friend of mine is tall and has a classic body - by classic, I mean the ones you see in classical Scandinavian paintings, with smaller breasts, swan waist, hips, and a belly. She can wear things I can't. She is also a fashion designer, and when I tried on one of her jackets she was quick to point out that "only someone with an ass and hips" could wear it, because the blouson back balanced out a tush. Without a tush of my own, the jacket ballooned out like a butt on my back! Luckily she had one with a more tailored back, which looked great on me - but NOT on the ass-and-hips girls.
It's OK for something you like not to work, and it's OK to wear it anyway. If you're going for figure-flattering, IMO these pants just aren't your babies. If you're going for "I love these," then nothing we say matters! Wear them however you like!
And to clarify, I don't always disregard YLF advice. It's just not the dominant factor in how I dress. *shrugs*
