5KidzRUs Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 What brand pants are cut for a curvy teen? Not heavy teen - skinny waist - I am talking about 5'7" and around 160 lbs ... she likes slight flare bottoms. We have to order online since we are in an isolated area. THANKS!

Beth in OH Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I might be able to help, since I have a dd who fits this description. Does your dd have a tiny waist so that if jeans fit on the hips they gap at the waist, or just a proportionate to her hips, not overweight waist? Do you want jeans or pants, dress or casual? Do you have a specific price range in mind? e.g. JC Penney vs. The Gap? It sounds like she prefers boot cut jeans. Is she interested in straight legs (not skinny jeans) at all? My similarly shaped dd really likes straights, and they don't accentuate her curviness. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganClassicalPrep Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Has she checked out Old Navy? They have many different styles of jeans, and offer them in 3 different lengths. I've been wearing Old Navy jeans for years, through many different weight changes, and can always find what I need there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Wife Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 One of my friends who is curvy with a smallish waist and I'd guess roughly the same weight as your DD swears by the new Levi's "bold curve" jeans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*~Tina~* Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 You might try the St. Johns Bay jeans at JCPenny. They are often on sale for right at or less than $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbean05 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 This described me to a T (and still does!) and it took me quite a bit of searching to find a good reliable brand that fits my little waist and big hips with no gaps and a flattering look. Old Navy--not good at all. All of their cuts are too narrow in the hips. They aren't curvy enough. Teen sizes (odd sizes) are a no go. Women's sizes (even numbers) are the way to go. My ending winner--Gap Boot Cut stretch. Have fun shopping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5KidzRUs Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 Thank you so much for all the tips! @Beth - she needs some casual and some dressy - she is living in sweats right now - just about any reasonable price range. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasmama Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Levis have good stretch and come in boot cut. They are fashionable, flattering and comfortable...and not too expensive. Kohl's often runs sales on them (online, too). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jann in TX Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) We carry our weight in our hips and thighs... Lee brand jeans have been great for us. I purchase from JC Penny, Kohls or at our outlet mall. We LOVE the ones with the 'comfort waistband', slighlty below waist-- no gaping!! The ones with the side elastic are also great-- roomy thighs without being baggy... You can order directly from Lee.com Edited January 1, 2011 by Jann in TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
