These Jeans Are All Curvy Girl-Approved

These Jeans Are All Curvy Girl-Approved

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

If you love shopping for jeans, have never, ever had a bad experience with doing so, and don’t at all find it hard to discover jeans that are long or short enough, and fit both the butt and waist area as desired all at once – then you’re definitely an outlier. Shopping for new jeans is, for many, one of those tasks that are only enjoyed once completed. But, if shopping for jeans remains a difficult feat in general, then there’s something to be said about shopping for jeans when you’re over, say, a size 14. As is all too often the case with many things fashion adjacent, being a curvier woman in this instance comes with its own set of obstacles.

Thankfully, though we aren’t yet anywhere near a world where the majority of brands carry inclusive sizing, quite a few brands have pivoted to championing diverse bodies. Thus, there are finally fashion-forward “plus size” jeans on the market (remember when curvy customers were only presented the most boring washes, devoid of details, with the most uninspired silhouettes?). Granted, scoping them out can still be a pain, but no worries as we rounded up a handful of stylish options few for you. No matter which of the many denim trends you may be into (skinny jeans, straight-legs, cropped jeans etc.), you’re bound to find a pair you love from the 11 below.
