Jeans for larger person

7 replies

namechangedyetagain · 01/08/2021 07:49

I need some jeans (preferably dark blue) and limited to anywhere that can deliver really quickly. Also as cheap as possible!

So any suggestions? I am pushing 50, have huge hips, tummy, bum and thighs. 18/20 ish. What shape should I look for? Don't like the idea of anything that makes me look even larger.

They're just for every day wear. Please help as I'm completely ashamed and disgusted by the way i look . 🙏

Asda George have some which are stretchy fabric. I find they fit well? I have big hips and small waist, so they work well. Quality is OK, iso have to replace every six months or so as my thighs rub together. They’re called wonder jeans I think and asda deliver pretty quickly - if you have one near you you can get them delivered to store as they don’t always have other sizes in.

I don’t rate their tops or underwear though, just these jeans.

Definitely jeggings - but more on the jeans rather than leggings side of things. I like M&S and hennes - both of whom do great quality ones in your size x

Thank you, we don't have an Asda nearby unfortunately. They mostly seem skinny type jeans. I'm not sure what leg shape I should go for at my size? Feel really conscious as stacked the weight on (ADs, peri menopause and lockdown). I know it needs addressing but have no oomph.

Simply be, go for jeans with stretch and I find boot cut or flared leg are more flattering on larger hips. I get my jeans for about £20 a pair, but they often do sales and multi buys so often cheaper. Usually free delivery and returns if you order enough clothes. Just send back what isn't suitable.

I am around a size 20. I have jeans from Monsoon, Next, some lovely jeggings from Mr Max (QVC), jeans also from Ruth Langsford (also QVC). They all fit and look nice! As in, they don't cut me in half or fall down!

I live in the M&S Magic Sculpt jeans. And I'm a 22-24. Highly recommend you go on to try some on, I like the high waist ones.

High waist Straight or Mom leg looks best when you’re pear shaped with a tummy. Asos, is surprisingly, good in this space. Get their own brands. Another very good alternative is H&M’s plus size range. Both cheap
