the best jeans for curves

I love dressing women. LOVE it. And if I had to pick the moment that brings me the most joy in my job, it’s getting a woman into a pair of jeans that FIT. Whether you were born with curves, or acquired them more recently, these are a few of the ones I love to put on those beautiful bods.


1. Liverpool Chloe Pull-Ons

Liverpool makes some of the most comfortable and mom-bod-friendly jeans on the market, hands-down. The Chloe forgoes the button and zipper for a totally smooth finish under your tops. The high front and back rise keeps you totally secure with no muffin top, while the smoothing front panel adds an extra boost of comfy control. Comes in several colors and leg openings; I like these cute slim ankle crops for a sandals-friendly option for spring!

Price point: $89

Ideal for: post-partum, full hips, full booties, eliminating waist gapping, consider sizing down

Pair with: t-shirts, tunic-length tops, form-fitting tops

2. Madewell Cali Demi-Boot

I’m a long-time lover of Madewell jeans, and the Cali Demi-Boot has been a raving success on my curvy gals. I especially love this rinse wash for elevating your casual routine. The cropped length and updated subtle bootcut balances your curves and shows off your shoes. Plus, Madewell’s high rise and Magic Pockets keep your tummy feeling secure and smooth.

Price point: $128

Ideal for: plus sizes, fuller tummies, post-partum

Pair with: blazers, leather jacket, dressier tops, ankle boots, clogs, mules

3. Talbots Jeggings

Yep, you read that right: Talbots! When it comes to thoughtfully fitting a woman’s body, no one can touch Talbots’ attention to detail. These are an ultra-comfy stretch jegging with timeless finishes, secure high rise, and smoothing tummy panel. The best part - are you ready for this? These come in an astounding SEVEN fits: Regular, Long, Petite, Plus, Curvy, Curvy Petite, AND Curvy Plus. Name another brand that does that!

Price point: $95-$99

Ideal for: all body types, consider sizing down, choose Curvy if you struggle with waist gapping

Pair with: casual tops, business-casual tops, flats, loafers, sneakers

4. Universal Thread - High-Rise Slim Straight Fit Cropped Jeans

Top marks for a budget-friendly, bod-friendly jean goes to Universal Thread at Target! Smart details like a higher back rise, fly-anchored pockets (aka smoothing action!), and comfy stretch fabric match up compared to brands at 4x or 5x the price point. For an on-trend shape, try these high rise slim straights in light, medium, and dark wash. I am thrilled to see this very pair offered in Short, Regular, Long, and Plus fits. At this price, there’s no reason not to try them!

Price point: $25

Ideal for: post-partum, full booties, eliminating waist gapping, those who need length options

Pair with: your casual faves, sneakers, sandals, white jean jacket
