Women's Plus Size Marilyn Straight

As you can see from my previous orders, I wear the same jeans all the time. I spend the extra money because these jeans have always been a great fit and they were worth it. NOT this time. I bought these so that I had a new pair for the hospital, my son's new baby is coming and all mine are rather worn, so I splurged. Tried them on this morning- AFTER cutting all the tags off and hemming up an inch because- I have 10 pair of them and they ALWAYS fit the same. Never, ever had a problem. Lesson learned. These are AWFUL!! The waist is all wrong, they bind, the fabric is crummy, even the zipper is not the same! They fit like cheap crummy jeans...Can't return them now because I jumped the gun and hemmed them so they would be ready to wear since I always have to do that when I get a new pair, have done it every time, no issues.... Checked the tags and the cut on my others is 1008404SL, but this one is 1013139! I got the wrong pants. And boy do they fit different. Make sure you got what you ordered before you pack them on a trip! Why, oh why, can't the jean companies be consistent on fit? I wear the same cut everytime. I have to change jeans every few years because they decide to make 'improvements' and nothing is right anymore. Back to the drawing board.

Well, you certainly get what you pay for. These were $18 bucks and a size 20 (ha, ha - not in a million years). I can get them pulled up, past my thighs, onto my butt, without being able to fully able to to put them on. There is a huge gap, and my big belly spills out, unable to even go into these pants, let alone be contained by them.You are thinking, well this fat woman needs a larger size. Why doesn’t she just buy one, the idiot.One: I have the same style and color in a size 20 that I can get into, wear, but prefer a little looser. Inherited these from a cousin who lost weight.Two: I just bought the same style and color from Bloomingdales in 22 and guess what, I am swimming in them. But I still can’t get on theSize twenty purchased here. The size 22 is snug while putting on, but the “stretch starts to enlarge so much, they are practically falling off me. Thank goodness for the invention of belts. It was worth paying $96 to at least be able to wear them!!!Three: I always note COLOR & STYLE because I was told by my Dept Mgr at Nordstrom, supposedly You need to try each and every color of NYDJ on individually to ensure the correct fit. That means within the same styles (Barbara, Marilyn, etc) black, brown, denim corduroy...all fit differently. I have most definitely found this to be true.This style has never been my favorite. I am tall, and I like the 33”, though it’s long even for me. I actually would say I am more statuesque than stout, but somehow the straight line isn’t as flattering, as one might think. I much prefer the Barbara boot cut. I really never see the Barbara in black, though, especially on sale.I wish I had tried them on before washing (and followed my own Golden Rule), but Thank Amazon it was on $18 bucks down the drain and not $96.

I do not understand the sizing of NYDJ jeans. I already have a pair of NYDJ jeans that were a gift, and they are far too large - I can pull them on without even unzipping them or unbuttoning the waist, and they feel like they'll fall down. So I ordered these jeans one size smaller - just one size smaller - and they are so small that I could not even try them on - I could not zip them! So I returned them. Good luck getting a pair that fits.

Worth the money!!!These are the Only jeans I can wear as I am stuck between a 14 and 16 with the 16 being way too baggy and the 14 was too tight in other brands. I love that these sizes come as 14w etc! The only complaint would be the length is too long but that's ok because I'm finally comfortable in jeans. This is my second pair.

LOVE the fit of these jeans. They are a tad darker than I would like, but it doesn’t matter because of the fit. One other minor complaint...the first time I wore them, one of the metal rivets came off. My one year old niece found it, gave it to her mom. She then yelled out “WHAT IS THIS METAL THING? WHAT DOES NYDJ MEAN?”Tad embarrassing.Again - ALL can be forgiven because they are THE BEST fitting jeans. FYI - I normally wear a 20W and ordered 18W (only size they had). They still fit awesome.

Love, love these jeans. Perfect for mature women.Stylish, not grandma jeans. Snug on tummy and not baggy while being deliciously comfortable. Enough comfort to travel in and play with grandkids. Never ride up in crotch. Will continue to buy these.

This cut often your encouraged to size down. I wear 24 nydj’s with comfort at size 24 .... however the ones that claim to make you look a size larger and you should size down .... are snug in my normal size. I’m going to keep them, better to snug then too loose. But I had hoped for a comfortable straight leg. And it’s more a small bell and snug to the point of uncomfortable.... but I think they will loosen and I am dropping pounds

I have not had these pants for even a year. I bet I have only worn them aprox 10 times. The zipper is coming apart at the seam. I contacted the factory because these are extremely expensive jeans. The factory refused to exchange them and only offered 30% off of a new pair of these pants. Guess what I went to the website and anyone can get 30% off. POOR POOR company and quality stinks for the heavy price tag.

I only wear NYDJ jeans, have done so for years having discovered them whilst living in the States. They fit perfectly, are flattering and terrific quality. It was great to find them at a really good price on Amazon.

Great jeans. Always fit great. I am 5 foot 8 and somehow this time the pants were too long but for the price I could live with it

the look of the cuff

As described - very happy

These jeans are the only jeans I wear because the fit is perfect.
