Is anyone currently making "curvy fit" jeans?

I really struggle to get properly fitting jeans due to my shape - big hips, comparatively small waist, thighs that could crush a grape. And needing longer length, just to make it more fun.

Currently I have some decade-old M&S jeans from when they did a range designed for different body shapes, but they're now on their way out and I need to replace them. (Searching Vinted/eBay periodically in the hope someone has an 18L they forgot about in the back of their wardrobe...)

Is there anyone at the moment making "curvy fit" jeans? Or can recommend anything that's a good fit for those of us with a big hip/waist difference? I find a lot of ranges marked 'curve'/'curvy' are more about size rather than shape so searching is bringing up nowt.

(Am currently losing a bit of weight but have had this problem at every size I've ever been, so I don't think that will help much!)

Levi’s do a curvy range that they say are good for the ‘pear’ shape and bigger thighs

Abercrombie & Fitch. They're called Curve Love. Excellent quality, on a pat with Levis I'd say.

100% Abercrombie. I take a 27 in their curve jeans and a 28 in their regular, they are good at telling you how much stretch is in each colour way, size guide is pretty accurate in my experience, choice of length, highly recommend. Really nice quality, however I agree its worth checking Levi's out for this too.
Also if you get on with them as brands, i do recommend trying stuff on in store (or at home if you can get free delivery and returns - i do think Abercrombie charge for returns but not sure about Levis) to get your sizing right, then taking pictures of the jeans you like, specifically the label to make sure its the exact style, and keeping an eye on Vinted as both brands turn up regularly - i have just done this with a pair of Levis I have had my eye on for months.

Another vote for Abercrombie. There are always discount codes knocking around too. I’m a UK 12 with a big bum/thighs and wear a 29.

Another vote for A&F curve love. Changed my life, so annoyed I didn’t know about them sooner. I always assumed it meant for larger sizes but nope they are perfect for smaller sizes too.

A good belt makes a world of difference.

Next have a curvy range I'm sure. Probably have to be online though as I don't know if they stock them in store

Yes, I agreee 100% . I got my last two pairs from Mandm direct and they are GREAT. Fit well and really lift my bum

Next do a whole range of styles in this shape. Search their site for "hourglass jeans" and you'll see them all.

Ambela! They have a waist adjuster.

Really surprisingly, Primark. I hadn't ever considered them but my friend who is similar to me (smaller waist, bigger bum/thighs) told me they were good and omg I've never had such a well fitting pair! I had to size up as they come up small but they are great. I have really long legs too but long seems to be the style at the moment.

DD swears by Abercrombie jeans curve fit.

Finding one that goes round my hips is the challenge. Even plus-sizes never seem to work.

Hollister also do the curve fit with more room in the hip/bum.
