My wife is 5,5 and 122. We got the size 27 and they fit exactly as you would want. Perhaps a bit long, but the stretch to fit made the length of little issue. They just scrunch a bit at the ankle.
The waist is high enough, with enough Lycra, to provide extra confidence. The rise is just below the belly button.
The material has a velvety soft, but still slightly denim feel. Its a very nice feeling fabric.
The legs are tapered like a skinny jean, and the Lycra provides a nice fit to her beautiful profile.
These jeans combine the legging comfort to the casual Jean aesthetic. They provide a little more modesty than leggings would, but with most of the expected comfort.
The pair we got are pure black. The Black did bleed out in the wash and it effected other clothing items. I would recommend the first few washings with black items only. The color did not fade though.
