Petite ladies where do you buy jeans?

Can I call on your collective wisdom to ask where you buy your jeans if you're petite? I've bought Gap petite jeans for years but they've been very 'meh' of late and I can't seem to find anything I like. I live in my jeans so I'm happy to spend a bit more for a nice pair. TIA!

I have several And/Or jeans from John Lewis. They go on offer fairly regularly and come up just right for me at 5'2".

SissySpacekAteMyHamster · 11/08/2020 09:58

I've got my last few pairs from Marks and Spencer, surprisingly happy with them.

Livy178 · 11/08/2020 10:01

I’m 5”1 and buy most of my jeans from Zara.

IdblowJonSnow · 11/08/2020 10:05

Dorothy perkins.
Gap in my city has gone. Their jeans were so flattering on me.

IdblowJonSnow · 11/08/2020 10:06

Next and marks and Spencer jeans dont fit right on me at all and look frumpy (on me).

DiscoMoo · 11/08/2020 10:12

Dorothy Perkins for me too. I bought some from M&S and were really disappointed with the fit after a couple of wears.

mateysmum · 11/08/2020 10:15

Lands End. I'm 5' 1" and their jeans fit me perfectly. They're not cheap but you get some good sale bargains and the quality is excellent.

Justa2015 · 11/08/2020 10:18

Thank you so much for all these suggestions! Much appreciated!

Levi's W25 x

MellowBird85 · 11/08/2020 12:57

Next and Jasper Conran.

MrsJamin · 11/08/2020 13:08

Topshop Jamie jeans in length 30 are fab for me (I'm 5'3").

IndiaPlace · 11/08/2020 13:31

Topshop for me too, for length ( they offer different leg lengths) and fit (size 6)
I still wear their Baxter jeans...but no idea if these are in fashion or even still availableWinkSmile...I just love them and often buy from eBay.

RatherBeRiding · 11/08/2020 14:04

Primark! (5'0")

magbob · 11/08/2020 14:07

H&M ankle grazer are perfect. The 7/8 length trouser fashion has been fab for me because they are full length.

Alfiemoon1 · 11/08/2020 14:12

Top shop Jamie or Joni jeans sometimes river island I am 4ft 11 a size 4/6

Fidgety31 · 11/08/2020 15:06

Levis or Next

Devlesko · 11/08/2020 15:08

Primark, Dorothy Perkins, have had some from New look, but their black ones don't last 2 minutes.
At least with Primark prices you can replace in a couple of months.

mummyh2016 · 11/08/2020 16:55

River island or topshop.

EllaAlright · 11/08/2020 17:23

Dorothy Perkins petite jeans all the way for me. The fit and length is always perfect.

dryshampooer · 11/08/2020 17:27

I'm 5'2", size 8. I love M&S Ivy skinnies in the shorter length. Comfortable, and retain their shape. Wash well too. I've re-purchased a couple of times.

vixxo · 13/08/2020 00:39

Topshop

Wildwood6 · 13/08/2020 09:42

Thank you so much for all your suggestions! It so interesting that lots of people are suggesting Topshop jeans- I used to wear these all the time a few years ago but I stopped as unfortunately after a few washes they seemed to go baggy around the crotch- never a good look! Time for a revisit I think!

redroses86 · 13/08/2020 11:00

The best I’ve ever found are Primark (and I’ve tried loads!). They do 28 inch leg length which I find fits perfect and stops just above my ankle, I’m 5’3.

Debbyshields · 16/08/2020 17:31

I've always bought my petite jeans from next, I'm only 5ft and they fit perfect in the leg

SandieCheeks · 16/08/2020 17:34

Next, but the sizing is really generous and I find I need to go down a size.
