Jeans for a big bum.

I never wear jeans cause they just don't seem to fit or aren't very flattering. With so many different styles though, I'm hoping to find a pair that may go against this view of myself .

So here goes. I'm a pear. Size 8 waist but a large 10 hips. Not particularly wide hips but a large sticky out bum. I'm also shortish and have a small upper body, so i have nothing to balance out my bottom half. What jeans would fit? and also not make my bum look terrible. I'm on a mission to find some.

Have you heard of Ambela jeans? They’re created by a social media body positivity influencer and loads of people rave about them. They’re stretchy but have a bit at the back that means you can tighten to your waist whilst also having room for tummy, thighs, hips etc.
Not tried them as my size sold out really quickly but I want to!

Fitjeans work for me, they are for people with slimmer waist and well developed bottom half. Not sure about length though if you're petite.

Mango jeans work like a charm for me. They definitely allocate for a perky derriere!

I quite like high waist stretchy mom jeans from Levi. They emphasise my bum but in a really nice way imho. I’m tallish though so I think maybe it’s easier to carry off having a big bum on a small frame.

A friend with your figure always swore by GAP jeans - she looked very good in them
