I ordered this pant in a size 18. I feel like the description of this pant is very accurate; it is definitely cut for a straight figure and the waist was intended to be a bit larger as stated in the description; which I obviously did not read very well or I never would have ordered them. I have a curvy figure and they were initially too snug in the thigh, but I have to say that there's so much stretching throughout a normal day that the legs end up fitting exactly right within an hour and the waist stretches too much so I have to wear a belt. Even so, these are very smart looking\flattering pants and have been easy to dress up or go extra casual. They are very comfortable and wash and dry well. I have not had to iron them or go to any extra effort. I dry them on medium heat and promptly hang or fold them and that has been enough. I have worn them with sneakers and a hoodie or flats and dress sweater. These are my new favorite every day pants!
