Not too wide wide-legged jeans?

I need advice. With my body shape, are wide trousers/jeans a no-go? I’m ‘curvy’, take size 16 bottom (eg M&S, Next, Fatface) but 18 top, 38E bra size. Bit of a tummy now. I’m mid-50s. I’m about 5’6”, leg length about 30” so not very long.
With my waist size, the leg width on wide trousers/jeans seems to be ginormous. I see the width on the size 8/10 on the front of the rack and think it looks great. Then I get to my size…
So given my height, size and shape - I feel like they just don’t suit me. I look wide/square/short. But they are everywhere. Is there a make/shape that are not so wide? Straight but not voluminous? Could be denim or cord etc. or do I just wait this trend out?

Fatface Elise jeans or Levi's 501 90s are quite flattering
