Low rise jeans

A friend is looking for some new jeans but says that she can only find high waisted jeans. Do any of you know anywhere that still sells low rise, hipster jeans? The sort of thing that was around in the 1990s.

She is a U.K. size 10 (between 8 and 12, depending on the shop).

God. I thought you were going to announce they were coming back! Sorry for your friend but low rise jeans are 😩

I usually go to Next or TKMaxx. Used to do Levis on sale but can't really afford it now....

I like low raise and straight. If anyone else has any other suggestions I would appreciate to have options :)

@Hyperfish101 high raise jeans look terrible on me and make my belly look huge! I also look awful on skinny jeans. It's good to have options. When all shops have exactly the same style it doesn't cater to different bodies.

Btw low raise is not that low. It usually comes to a finger or two below the belly button

You’re right about different body shapes but back in the day, low rise was all you could buy.

@Hyperfish101 I suppose you're right. It's sad it is that way. Shops should have a range. High/low raise and skinny/straight/bootcut.

Thanks all! I’ve sent her a link to some Topshop jeans (sold by Next, weirdly).
