The jeans looked great.  Very nice quality material (not see thru)- very soft to the touch, but they didn't fit my body at all and I don't think sizing up (next size up wasn't available anyway) would have helped me. I'd say these were curvy cut- and curvy cut jeans just don't work well on my 5'0 tall, hippy body type. Happy they worked for others, but they didn't work for me- no fault of the pants tho!
