Where can you buy jeans by waist and length, not just size 8,10 etc? Other than topshop, that's already on my list.

Do they do it in inches/cms or just long, normal and short?

next - petite, regular or long. However bear in mind i'm only 5ft (legs long in relation to overall height) and i'm a regular so guess they come up short.

hmm, I really need sizes in inches. I'm always between sizes when they just have 3, too tall for petite and too short for normal. And too lazy to get my jeans turned up!

Gapstar, Levi's and Diesel I think

what exact size are you looking for? I have tons of clothes I've just started to Ebay (closing my shop at Xmas ) I can take a look and see if I have any the right measurements.

traceybath · 04/10/2008 20:43

well next regular may be ok then as they're definitely shorter than normal regular length - however i do wear heels!

I'm just short, and the fat is quite well spread out!

BHS do them, think the range is called "universal", they do those measurements.

Think asda have started to do leg lengths as measured but AFAIK the waist sizes are still as 8/10/12 etc

gigglewitch · 04/10/2008 21:25

bhs jeans n stuff when i got mine, also marked were waist sizes. the 8 that i got was also marked as 26".

gigglewitch · 04/10/2008 21:27

other than that, i just wandered in here to say in my usual silly fashion...
erm, why do you want two pairs of jeans, have you got two pairs of legs

Thanks, I'll try there. I need to know exactly where I'm going before I attempt any shopping with ds in tow!

I don't have two pairs of legs, but I like to change my clothes occasionally

I just bought two pairs of the jeans I already have on ebay. People will think I never change my clothes but I don't care!
