If you’re a curvy woman, you probably have a hard time finding the perfect pair of jeans. As a curvy woman myself, I thought it was impossible to find jeans that fit my body type. When you have a slim waist and bigger thighs, it can get challenging. I can’t tell you how many pairs of jeans I’ve tried on only to leave the dressing room empty-handed. If only I knew the right places to go to from the start, I would have saved myself a number of trips to the mall. 

Fortunately, the world is embracing the curviness of a woman again. If you look back in history to the 1400s or 1500s, artists like Botticelli and Vecellio painted full-figured and curvy women. Even then it was acceptable for women to have “a little meat on the bones”. And let’s not forget the movie icon Marylin Monroe, who wasn’t skinny but had curves in all the right places.

Yes, I know that being curvy is awesome and unique. But here’s how I’m going to make your life so much easier. 

I finally put together a list of my top jeans for curvy women. These pairs of jeans are meant to help you show off your curves. These stores are my go-to whenever I need a nice pair for a classy look or a more edgy one. I’ve also picked the pairs I find the most comfortable. I know we all want to look good, but let’s do that without pain!

Jeans For Curvy Women

1. Hollister

This by far is my top choice when looking for jeans for curvy women. The designs, as well as the quality, make every customer come back for more. These jeans will accentuate your curves and are also really comfortable. Also, these jeans will last you literally forever! I probably have a few pairs in my closet that I have forgotten about. 

Pair one of their high waist jeans with a cute crop top, and you’ve got yourself some Instagram-worthy looks.

2. Fashion Nova

Fashion Nova has been revolutionizing the world of fashion for the past few years. From their collaborations with multiple celebrities, such as Kylie Jenner and Cardi B, to their beautiful selection of clothes, this store will guarantee your satisfaction. 

Fashion Nova is also geared towards curvy women. So if you’re looking for a stylish pair of jeans, their website offers plenty of options. Their website is always offering good deals and discounts. Also, their app is visually appealing and will get you hooked on online shopping (I’m speaking from experience). Try out one of their mom or boyfriend jeans. Pair them with Fashion Nova high heels for a stylish and sexy look. 

3. Guess

Another one of my top choices is Guess. I have never been disappointed in any pair of jeans I bought. Their collaboration with Jennifer Lopez really shows that this store knows what a curvy woman needs! 

Choose from their amazing selection of high rise or skinny jeans and make sure to check out their “Jennifer Lopez for Guess” section. My favorite pair is definitely the Nova ultra-high rise curvy jeans. Try pairing these with one of their stylish denim jackets!

4. Forever 21 

If I ever happen to be at the mall, I am definitely stopping at Forever 21. I have been shopping for jeans there for quite some time, and I am certainly a satisfied customer. 

Make sure you check out their trendy collection of denim jeans, their cute crop tops and their sales section. They also have a fashionable plus-size section along with accessories to go with your fabulous outfits!

5. Levi’s (815)

Levi Strauss & Co. is one of the world’s largest apparel companies and a global leader in jeans. They own some 500 stores worldwide, and their products are available in more than 100 countries. 

Their 815 curvy boot cut women’s jeans is the perfect choice for curvy women. This pair features a special no-gapping waistband for a perfect fit. Another great option is Levi’s curvy skinny jeans designed especially for your curves with an ultra-sleek skinny leg. You can never go wrong with Levi’s! Also, if you order online, they offer Afterpay, which means you can split your payment in four installments. (You can thank me later)

Levi’s jeans are making a comeback in this curvy-dominated world today. They’re becoming so popular that artists like Danileigh made a hit song, called “Levi-high”, praising the pair of jeans and the way they enhance a woman’s curves. 

6. American Eagle

American Eagle has a dedicated section for curvy jeans. From high-waisted to mom jeans, their collections are very high-quality and stylish. Also, make sure you check out their “dream jeans”. They’re designed to fit your body perfectly and accentuate your curves. You can choose light washes, perfect for spring and summer, or you can go for darker washes to create a distressed and unique look. 

Also, SERIOUSLY consider pairing your jeans with one of their comfy sweaters or cute tops! My personal favorite outfit is high-waisted ripped jeans with a crop top.

7. Good American (good waist)

What started as a simple conversation between two friends resulted in a body-positive, successful company. Both Khloe and Emma Grede were discussing what it means to be a woman in today’s world. They both agreed that body ideals have shifted in the last few years. Having dealt with the struggle of not finding jeans that fit their curvy figures, they decided to cancel that problem and create a sexy and flattering denim line that will fit women perfectly. 

My personal favorite is their good waist collection, designed to hug your every curve and lift you up! And guess what? They even have a collection of maternity jeans, called “Good Mama”, designed to give you comfort and embrace your body before and after your pregnancy.

Good American is not only body positive but also breaks down barriers by providing jeans in all sizes without compromise. They even donate from every item sold to Step Up, an organization that motivates girls from under-resourced communities by empowering them to become confident, college-bound and career-focused. Clearly, this brand believes in encouraging women to reach their fullest potential!

Conclusion

Society doesn’t only promote skinny anymore. The world has opened up and embraced the curviness of a woman. A lot of brands now have a dedicated section for curvy bodies, letting us shoppers feel comfortable and at ease. We’re also seeing models with a curvier physique. This definitely makes them relatable to those who share the same body type! I know I am one of those people inspired by women, including Jennifer Lopez or Beyonce, who unapologetically embrace their bodies. These women have proven to the world how curvy is sexy and feminine. And who doesn’t want to look like Queen B?

Yes, being a curvy woman is a challenge, especially when you’re looking for the perfect pair of jeans! However, it’s important not to forget that comfort is a priority. You can look good and feel good at the same time.

Luckily for us, brands are embracing curviness and have been designing fashionable and trendy jeans for curvy women. You can keep it old school with a pair of Levi’s, or you can try out an edgier look with some Fashion Nova jeans. Either way, love your body, show it off and find what works best for you!
