Wide but not too wide jeans I’m 5’ 2”

Want something a bit cooler looking than my M&S Sienna straight jeans. The wide ones I have tried are ridiculously floppy and make me look even stumpier. Size 10 preferably a medium blue. Any ideas please?

Have you considered a flared leg rather than wide leg if your main concern is proportionality?

I tried the Sainsbury's wide legs the other day and really liked them - not clown wide, just sort of cool 70s wide.

Someone on here recommended the Hollister ones, and I have to agree, they're really well cut for us shorties!

Thanks for the replies! I will look for Hollister. Liked a bootleg in the past so maybe look for something like that again.

Levi’s do a 90s 501 which has a bigger thigh than the classic 501, while still having the classic straight leg.

Try M and S Slim Flares

I’ve found Hollister great for jeans.

What are hollister sizes like pls? Generous, small, true to size?
Ive a small waist (altho lately have a belly) and am full of thigh! Guess the latter doesn't matter with wide leg jeans.

They have US sizing, so go by the measurements rather than dress size, I’m normally an 6/8 and in Hollister I’m a size 2. I’m finding they come up big, but I think that’s because I’ve got a curvy bum/hips so often have to go up a couple of waist sizes to accommodate that.
