Very stretchy high waist holdy in jeans

Hello

I have an amazing pair of jeans from river island about 5 years ago. They are super duper stretchy but with very tight elastic that gives a great shape.

If anyone has any recommendations for jeans that are stretchy but don't go baggy enough to show that bottom bit of my belly that hangs down

Thanks

it's a very individual search finding jeans that look good on us but I really love "Amazing Woman" jeans, very stretchy and nice materials

I have high waisted, stretchy, straight legged Levis that fit the bill. They're very forgiving on my spare tyre, but don't look good with anything tucked in.

NYDJ. Pricey, but excellent.

Also, in US sizes, so makes you feel thin when buy a size or two down

New Look have lots of variations. I got some that hold in a C section belly no problem..
£17..

For cheaper versions - Tesco Florence & Fred 'The Contour' or Asda George 'Wonderfit'

NYDJ bought on eBay after trying different styles in JL .

I am large of belly also rather fat at the moment and I love Uniqlo jeggings. They feel like proper denim, so not too soft, but also stretchy.

lolbrador · 27/06/2020 21:39

Thank you all. @LadyPrigsbottom what is Uniqlo sizing like on jeans? I ordered a sports hoodie and found it large but the sports leggings were small.

Next 360

Amazing

LadyPrigsbottom · 27/06/2020 21:43

My Uniqlo jeggings are an XL, OP. I normally wear a 16/18, but smaller in leggings, because I have skinny legs compared to the rest of me!

I love Asda Wonderfit jeans. They’re high waisted, tight fitting and extremely soft, stretchy and comfortable.

lolbrador · 27/06/2020 22:38

Some good tips to go on, thanks all

Uniqlo are great

Letthemysterybe · 27/06/2020 23:49

I like m and s high waisted magic
Jeans.

Fiveasidefootballfamily · 27/06/2020 23:52

Definitely Topshop jeans. The only ones I’ve found that stay tight and are perfect if you normally find jeans gape at the waist. They’re soft and stretchy but do not slide down.

HobbyIsCodeForDogging · 27/06/2020 23:54

Next also do Hyper Curve jeans which are amazing and sound like they'd fit the bill. I haven't tried the Next 360 ones a pp mentioned so not sure if they're similar. They're the same price.

Uniqlo jeggings are awesome!
I usually wear Next high waisted ones but tried on my DD2's Uniqlo jeggings and they were so nice I ordered myself 3 pairs.. one like jeans and two cropped checkered ones. They are so stretchy and comfy yet look like proper jeans...and have back pockets.
They hold everything firmly too :)

notinthestarsigns · 29/06/2020 21:48

Definitely Topshop Joni means

notinthestarsigns · 29/06/2020 21:49

Jeans even!

70sduvet · 29/06/2020 23:11

Topshop joni
I have them as a size 8 with skinny legs and a fluctuating tummy due to ibd
My mum has stick legs and a large stomach and wears a 14
My sil a curvy 16 with larger thighs and a bigger stomach a bottom.
All fit perfectly

70sduvet · 29/06/2020 23:13

And they don't grow as the day or days go on which is the thing that makes me want to rip jeans off my legs.

QueenCT · 29/06/2020 23:27

I like the next hypercurve. They don't gape at the back either

OhioOhioOhio · 29/06/2020 23:28

I dream of a well fitted pair of jeans.

TDMN · 29/06/2020 23:31

Another vote here for Uniglo if you can figure out the sizing!

Levi’s 724, currently going for an absolute bargain on Amazon.
