Which Best Jeans For Short Curvy Women Should You Buy Now?

Originally, I ordered these through Prime Wardrobe so I could try 8 different pairs of jeans for 7 days before I decided to buy any (AMAZING Amazon Prime feature, BTW). I ordered 5 other brands and styles along with 3 of the Wallflower Women's Instastretch Luscious Curvy Bootcut Jeans.
BEST. DECISION. EVER. These jeans have a perfect balance of stretch and tightness in all the right places as well as multiple length options. These are now my absolute go to jeans. I wanted bootcut jeans to wear over some of my heels and these are EXACTLY what I was looking for.

I have these in three different colors...
Elaine - Size 11 Long, which has exactly a 34in inseam & is 13 inches from crotch to waist
Jenna - Size 11 Long, which has exactly a 33 1/2in inseam & is 13 inches from crotch to waist
Blackberry - Size 11 Long, which has exactly a 34in inseam & is 13 1/2 inches from crotch to waist
(Yes, I measured each individual pair)

These jeans are extraordinarily comfortable and do not loosen throughout the day. On the 3 pairs I have, all of the pockets are actual functioning pockets. I get non-stop compliments on these jeans.
I am 5'7". Between 175-180lbs. My inseam is 31in to the floor, which is why I choose long length so with my boots, my jeans just barely miss the floor.

I sincerely hope this helps. 😉

I’m 5 foot five and weigh 175 pound. I first got the Jenna, nine short, but that was way too small. The 11 short works great! Note that it’s a little snug in the waist but I’m still losing this Covid weight. LOL. The stretch is amazing at first when you pull them on you don’t think you’re going to get them up over your hips and then, voilà! They are also made it very well I would expect to find these at Nordstrom’s, J.Crew, or any other fine clothing store. Just don’t be afraid to trade them in and return them for the one that fits you. Worth it!

Absolutely love them! The lower cut with the right amount of stretch keeps me from tugging them up all the time. Other jeans I've tried (I have required a bit of a muffin top)....keep sliding down and I'm forever pulling them up or are so high waisted the top rolls over and then they slide down....these fit me perfect. I'd buy 5 pair if I had the money! I'm 5'5 and 160 at the present time. I ordered 11 short.

Great pair of jeans. Super soft. Super comfortable. Really stretchy so it hugs you in all the right places!

I am 5’3” and ordered the regular length but I should have ordered the short. They bunch up around my ankles because they are a bit too long. Other than this they are my favorite jeans! I absolutely love them. I can’t stand wearing skin tight, stomach pinching pants every day and that is almost the only thing available either in yoga pants or jeans. I purchased these on a whim and I’m so happy I did! They are extremely comfortable, fit great and aren’t skin tight but still flatter my physique. I couldn’t be happier and they look gorgeous with boots of all lengths. Definitely recommend these if you want flattering jeans that aren’t skin tight.

I’m a chubby older lady. I have a big tummy, wide hips and a bubble butt. Most jeans gap on me or are too tight in the waist.

These jeans are fantastic ! The fabric is very thin and stretchy but NOT clingy! I love the curvy fit and highly reccomend it over the “ Slim shaping” fit.
I’m also a shorty at 5’2 and the short length option is perfect on me.
These look modern and not too trendy for an adult lady . They also do NOT look dated or out of style. Perfect neat casual look.
The fabric is thin. I like the thin fabric as the jeans are lightweight and super comfortable. Almost as comfortable as a yoga pant . I no longer have the legs for shorts so these are fine with the warmer weather.

Maybe I've just been extremely unlucky but this is the second time I have purchased jeans based on reviews stating the jeans are super stretchy. Many reviews I read for these jeans said they are more like leggings, had to order a smaller size so I ordered a 10. My other jeans are 10s or 12s. I cannot even button these! There is no stretch in the waist and very little stretch in the jeans at all. My gap, levi and venus jeans all have much more stretch that these. These jeans are cute and appear to be well made but PLEASE don't think you are getting stretchy jeans that are like jeggings or leggings. These are not! I rely on reviews when I make purchasing decisions and I am beginning to believe that is a mistake.

I LOVE these jeans . I’m super tall 5’11... and I have the hardest time finding jeans that fit me ! But omg I love these I can even cuff them and still have some slack on them . Soooo I bought 2 more pairs . I will never buy another pair of jeans . By far my all time favorite !!

These are wonderful jeans. I bought the raisin/burgundy color and love it. I plan to buy other colors, as well. I love LEE jeans as they usually fit the same if you buy the same "model". These fit a little loose in the waist on me, which is unusual but welcome. The legs are slim but not too tight, also what I wanted. I bought a Size 16. I am 70 years old, 5'4" and 180 pounds. I will buy a size 14 next time.

I received my two pair very quickly. Was I, surprised, yes. The color Bella, was terrific! It was just about the same as shown. I searched everything on these jeans, plus washed them to give you an accurate account of my opinion. I checked every seam and hem and they were straight. I, have bought some from stores before when I washed them one of the legs would kinda twist around where the seam would be in a strange and non normal place. But Hurrah all were straight. As I am around 5'8" depending on my posture for the day, hahaha they shrunk in the length, around 1/4" when I washed them. The tag suggested, I wash in cold water, nope they ended up washed in warm. Insideout though, I always follow. Tag also said tumble dry on LOW, or line dry. Of course, mine were tumbled dried on medium, because I was testing these jeans. I don't know about others, but I have had others grab the laundry and accidentally my jeans are in it. They get washed in warm and dried on medium. I know some of you are shaking your heads and cringing, but some of you, even though you may not admit it, this has happened to you.
So, to sum it up. Yes they are right on size. They are stretchy, and I do love the feel of them. Remember, these are the CURVY FIT. if you don't need it in your thighs, these aren't for you. (I get them to wear leggings, winter red longjohns, under). To the thickness, they aren't 100% cotton so they are not the jeans to go prospecting for gold in. Oh, yes I can still wear healed boots with them, even after the crazy wash and dry.
These jeans are nice on, and with your shoe choice and accessories they go with you almost anywhere.
However, if you are expecting heavy jeans you should look for jeans with more cotton. These are what I bought my jeans for. To run here and there, to doctors office, really for me to wear in my everyday life. Accessories get ready, you going to be dizzy. I will update this review after I wear them out a few times in different weather conditions.

I have a very hourglass shape and hate the gapping that occurs or flashing my underwear when kneeling down with typical jeans, and I didn't want to spend $80+ on blue jeans! I have lost a lot of weight over the last year, from a 22 down to a 12 that's getting loose and this style has been very kind to me. I just buy a couple pairs in a smaller size as I reach it! The fact that I don't even bother trying on any other brands, and have been consistently happy with the fit over so many sizes (I think I started with these at size 18?) should tell you something! I am short too, 5'3", and the short length is PERFECT!

Wow. I don't wear my NYDJ or my Seven's anymore. These are perfect! So forgiving, no holes (I'm 43, I don't need holey jeans), nice lines, nice seams, wash well without shrinking. Also, they're not so tight around the bottom that they emphasize my saddle bags. Sometimes curvy jeans are so busy hugging curves, that's all you can see. These lay nicely on the hips without being super wide-legged. Magic? Maybe so....

Seriously, the best jeans I have purchased in years.

I generally never wear Jean shorts because I always find something more comfortable. Until I found these. So comfortable. I love wearing them. They aren’t too short where my butt hangs out, but they aren’t too long where I feel old and frumpy. Love them.

Flattering

I'm a mom and conscious of the mama pooch, but still want flattering stylish denim styles. These shorts have a ton of stretch and are a great length. I tend to like shorter lengths, and this is the perfect length with a good amount of stretch in the tummy area. Would buy more colors!

I am 37 and the only thing that stores sell these days are shorts where my lady parts will be flapping in the breeze. I mean.... Who decided that we didn't want the rest of our shorts??? I also don't want them down to my knees either. I'm not that old yet. So..... Anyways..... These are perfect. They come down mid thigh and I don't feel over exposed or over dressed. Win, win. They do fit as expected so buy your regular size. I bought 2 pairs. Because at my age when you find something that works, I buy more than one. I'm 5' 6", 192 lbs and ordered a size 16. Fits amazingly!!

I listened to other reviews when purchasing these shorts. I am usually an 8 but ordered the 6 slim. I’m so glad I did because they fit PERFECTLY! They are not super short but not too long either. They have a good amount of stretch which really helped since I have a larger backside with a smaller waist. I tried them on as soon as I got them in the mail today and I’m still wearing them! They’re going to get lots of use during the summer!

I HATE this interface. Wrote a review and lost it!!🤬🤬🤬🤬. So this will be without my initial exuberance.

Greay style, Great flexibility, perfect length, great feel (soft yet durable).

Curvy mamas still buy a size down. Not curvy mamas consider possibly two sizes down.

The stretch and comfort will make up for the over sized.

The stretch holds me in without sacrificing my organs (I can eat in these) or scarring the skin on my muffin top. While I still feel like I could pull of some cute shirts/blouses with these.

I can go to the pool in these. I can ride a bike in these and they are still long enough to go to a museum with my kids and not feel too exposed.

Love this color but NOT enough color selection. Think HOT climates! We need khaki, white, olive green, safari brown! Can we get a super light wash jean blue too?

Not sewing the cuff will give us more length options when we go inside the artic-temperatures of Florida air-conditioned buildings. (Easy to fix though only sewn at the seems).

Longer front pockets please!

Ok, don't make fun of my body 😒. I hate seeing reviews that have zero pictures when it comes to clothes.

Also, we are shaped different. Someine my height and weight might look completely different. So here is my pics.

Product material is soft and stretchy. I ordered XL. I don't like skin tight due to my weight. I could have actually ordered a L and been just fine.

I am 5'4 and 180 is pounds ( 175-183 fluctuations)

Really hope this helps someone else 🙂

I WOULD recommend and I WOULD/WILL buy again. Just a size down. 😉

Update: still wearing these shorts and are still holding up well after a gazillion washes 🙂

Hands down, my favorite shorts I have ever owned. When you first put them on, they are a bit snug on the hips, but after a few minutes, seems to adjust well. These shorts are a great length; I’m a mom, but still enjoy shorter shorts 🙂 . They do not grab your thighs and the side slit is a nice detail. The washed color was exactly what I was looking for in shorts. I typically wear a size ten (“small” waist but large hips). Very comfortable and they have held up well. The material is jean but with some stretch.

I’m going to Mexico in a couple weeks and have also gained a few pounds since last summer and therefore need some new clothes for the trip. I took my measurements and am currently 35.5” waist & 42” hip. I’m 5’7 and weigh about 175lbs.
I was super nervous about ordering these as I feel like my sizing has always been all over the place. I carry most of my weight in my chest and tummy and have athletic-built legs & a somewhat smaller bum.
I purchased the Large in the “L Shorts Blue” and am in LOVE with them!!! The high rise fits my waist perfectly and I can still breathe. What I really like is that I can hike them up to the fullest and the rear pockets don’t show that was the intent. Lol. They are pretty stretchy and very soft — which I much prefer over hard, stiff and unforgiving denim.
I am thrilled with this purchase and will definitely purchase another pair!!! 🙂

Perfect fit! I love these. I am not as hippy or booty gifted as the model in the ad... but, I am a little thick in the back and thighs....and as a mother of baby Twins, Ive got a little extra in the front for now too. 🤷 I usually wear a size 8 to 10 in jeans, depends on the cut. I ordered a medium based on other reviews, and These, are PERFECT I tell ya! Hugs just right, not too short, not too tight, and very stretchy but cool denim material. I seriously love these shorts!

These are really cute and comfortable. They’re cotton and spandex blend so there is a lot of stretch if you need it. I love the color and the distressed pattern. They don’t feel cheaply made at all. I’m 5’3 and 160lbs and got a large for reference

Impressed. I’m size 16 ish (you know, a 16 in this brand, a 20 in that brand, etc). I’m 5’9 and 240lbs. The XXL fits PERFECTLY. I’m impressed with how comfy these are. The stretch isn’t suffocating, meaning it doesn’t choke your tummy. Makes my butt look awesome! Just long enough to help with chub rub issues. Only complaint is it’s not super flattering with my stomach sitting in part of the pants in the front. But true to size! Got what I ordered just like the picture.

The pants fit and wash well.
I personally miss 100 % pure cotton clothes. These pants contain Petroleum derivative and the company doesnt care about the long term effects of Elastine in the clothing. Elastine creates the pants to stretch. These pants also contain three types of cotton along with Elastine.. It makes the pants stretch. Now if an obese person wore the pants..the pants would stretch. Now this is bad because the pants would tighten the persons circulation around the waist, legs or the ankles. Many people dont care that the the pants are tight. They want to appear cool and disregard the health consequences of wearing this clothing. Long term wear of these pants or any other clothing that contains Elastine can cause Severe Neuropathy. There is no cure for this debilitating disease. Only awareness and prevention can make people think twice about the clothing they purchase. People think it is cool to wear tight clothing that has Elastine in it. Education is the key and humanity needs to demand for 100 percent cotton clothing. Many of the men's pants contain 100% percent cotton..there is a huge disparity with womans clothing. It is extremely hard to find jeans that contain 100 percent cotton.

I rarely write reviews but I just had to for these pants! First of all they’re jeans... and who buys jeans online, right? Well covid hit and I gained a bunch of weight. (Thanks Rona!) So now I can’t fit into any of my clothes but I can’t leave the house to go buy new ones. What’s a girl to do?
Hello Amazon!
I bought these in blue first. They fit perfectly! I’m curvy, even pre-covid weight, so it’s hard to find something that fits my butt/thighs without a huge gap at the waist in the back. Not these pants! They fit at the natural waist so they are higher waisted jeans but they also have amazing stretch and recovery. They stay in place but allow me to move. I can do full on squat reps in these with no issue. Not that I’m doing squats right now but I could if I wanted to put down the bag of Doritos.
Pre-pandemic I was a 10/12. I’m currently 14/16. I bought these in 14 and they fit like a dream. I just bought a 2nd pair in black.
If you are on the fence, buy them! You won’t regret it. I’m not sure how they fit on slender gals but if you’re like me and have a little junk in the trunk, they’re amazing!

I love Gloria Vanderbilt. Her jeans are sized consistently. I am 5'3", short legs and wide hips with a belly. As such, I am often in between sizes, either too tight or to big in the waist. I purchased the 18W Short, and they fit so perfectly, that I just ordered a second pair.
The jeans are not a heavy fabric, which I love, but you need to know that. They have a very nice stretch to them, and tapered nicely for a wide hipped girl. Not so "skinny jean" as to emphasize your hips, but gradual tapering. I recommend these for ladies who are fed up with trying tons of jeans that are never sized well. Check the sizing chart. These are true to size.

I'm a curvy girl with a burning loathing for shorts as hot as the sun. They ride up the inside of your thighs when you walk, longer shorts age you 20 years, and they either squish your tummy or flop below tummy line and said tummy flops out. Le sigh. These shorts were a last ditch effort at finding shorts that defy all of the aforementioned issues. These DO. They are just stretchy enough to stay up, to not look like your rear and tum are fighting each other for escape, and the dreaded thigh hike is non existent. And they're fashionable!! I'm a size 12-14 and I bought XL. Buy these.

I was skeptical but loved my shorts. I always h@ve trouble finding bottoms that fir cus my hips and waist are the same size and my legs are pretty athlic looking...as in im a box with ok legs. So im always scared to buy stuff without trying it on but these shorts were great!

These were such a surprise. I ordered last minute for a lake trip and honestly thought "no way shorts from amazon are going to work" I am curvy and usually shorts ride up too far in the back and /or dig in too much or all around tight. These have the right amount of stretch to be forgiving and the length is just the right size and the material is very soft and not heavy to where you will get hot and sweaty.
