Skinny jeans - rear view

5 replies

LaGattaNera · 18/03/2018 19:21

I'm a toned size 10 and find skinny jeans look great from the front but no matter which brand I try, cheap or more expensive, the rear view is wrinkly and makes my legs look a bit flabby with all those lines chopping me up. Is this just me or is it a common skinny jean side effect? Of course, it is open to debate as to whether skinny jeans have seen their day but skinny jeans, jeggings etc all look pants Grin from behind on me

I am currently dieting but even when I was skinny, I always had my arse covered in leggings or skinny jeans.

it could be that there are brands which avoid this - actually my sister has some Armani or something that she paid a fortune for and they don't it - but I don't spend that money on clothes, so easier to just cover the butt.

I think she went to a boutique shop - I mean it sold a few brands - and she thought they were great and the owner apparently had major knowledge of jeans. Maybe you just need a high quality brand but I'm more of saving money type - I find the hardwearingness of them to be more important.

it's probably also about finding an absolute skintight perfect fit and I cba if you'll pardon the pun.

thanks - I can't afford Armani but Next, Tesco & M&S all do this on me - perhaps I have slim front legs but podgy back legs Smile

Try Topshop Jamie , I can fit into the 10 or 12 but buy the 12 because I prefer the fit . I have a big bum and get those lines but you know what no one is perfect so 🤷‍♀️
