I initially ordered these jeans in a size 6. I am fuller in the hips and thighs so I like to make sure there is room. The size 6 was falling off. I read through the reviews, which helped, and decided to order a size 2. I am glad I did. The size 2 fits well. The waist is comfortable and there is still some room in the legs so the jeans have the relaxed, “boyfriend” appearance. There is enough stretch that they hold their shape even though they become a little looser after wearing. I would like to order more but they are a expensive. If these hold up, I will definitely be ordering more.
