    Where to go for jeans

    Where is the best place to go for jeans for larger women? I still haven't lost my baby weight so I need to buy a new pair. Where would you recommend?
    Thanks!

    i find target to be quite good. Also crossroads have sizes up to 24 and they are comfortable fit...almost like hipsters.

    And believe it or not, i have also bought some jeans from millers for $13.95 that have fit very flattering

    Also try Sussan. I've brought larger sizes from there and they have been a bit stretchy, rather than stiff.

    My sister got some nice ones from Myer in Sydney city (not sure which state you're in?) they have a bigger ladies section, I'm pretty sure they were regatta brand... quite a few different styles and stretchy ones (love stretchy ones, they mean I can fit into an 18 haha) plus the sales are just starting too so might pick up a bargain!
    'My size' also is a good one (similar to big city chic) but I think they are only in Sydney and Melbs... a little exxy at times (but I'm a tightarse :P ) but good when they have a sale on.

    My fave larger size shop is 16-26 (now called Autograph). It's an offshoot of Katies but has a huge variety of clothes. I like that their pants are not just wider but also longer and have extra fabric where you need it most!

    Ditto!
    I have a pair of jeans that I wear until they are frayed and falling apart. Then I begin the horrible task of finding a new pair

    I shop at crossroads for jeans. They seem to be stretchy but fit nicely. Most the time cheap too.

    I've got a problem in that I have weird proportions: big hip measurement (about a size 14) and a narrow waist (size 10) so buying jeans is a real nightmare too

    I agree, the denim Sussan's use is nice, soft and stretchy but I'm forever hitching the buggars up! grrrrrr
