Can anyone help me find jeans that actually fit? I am size 18/20 short. Looking for skinny's . Everything I have ordered is going back - has baggy legs/ ruched up knees and in the case of MandS magic jeans, bizarre lumpy hip seams!! It it even possible to get jeans to fit my belly that then fit my legs? Loosing all hope - any advice? Thanks x

I came on to suggest magic jeans but you have tried these.

At the minute I am liking the high waisted jeggings from m and s and the waist enhancer jeans form next.

The next ones are my favourites.

Although double the price.

Asda George do some brilliant jeans

Not being funny, but have you tried Matalan? I'm considerably overweight and their jeans are kind to my curves.

Thanks all. A big part of the problem is that I am so short, definitely need a petite fit. And, petite ranges stop at size14/16/18 depending on the retailer. I think Next are small sizes, so their 18's probably won't fit, but 20 doesn't come in petite. Off to look on Asda George now x

I wear George Petite range and they are great.

Levis super high waisted are very good - but very pricey.

Thanks, have ordered Asda George ones. I really appreciate all of your comments.

Try Sainsbury’s. I find their jeans excellent as they seem to sit on the waist rather than just below. They wash really well and don’t shrink. Their slim fit jeans are my jeans of choice at the minute and I pick them over my Levi high waisted jeans because they are more comfortable and have a slightly higher rise.
By coincidence I’ve just come back from trying to buy another pair but they had none in my size so I’m going to have to see if I can find some on line. Size wise i’ve I learned that you need to size down rather than up. I would normally buy a size 12 or even a size 14 waist in some places but the size 10 jeans are a perfect fit once I‘’ve stretched them over my hips
