Skinny Jeans?

Question

Okay, I wear a size 15-16 and am curvy (as in I have hips). Alright, Old Navy has skinny jeans called "The Diva", I think. Bottom line: can curvy women wear skinny jeans and still look good. I don't mean stuffing yourself into a small size, just your own size. I really haven't seen anyone curvy in the skinny jeans, so I'm unsure.

Okay, thank you for the honesty, but not all women misconstrue the word "curvy". I am not fat, just "curvy", as I said. That was my question! Of course someone who is overweight wouldn't look good in "SKINNY" jeans.

Answer 1

Ya, if you feel comfortable enough with your body than go for it!!! Anybody can wear skinny jeans as long as they have the right curves in the right places.

Answer 2

I have to admit that curvy women don't look as good in skinny jeans as straight-up-and-down women do. I wear a size 4, but I still have hips and a butt, and I still think I can't pull skinny jeans as well as women who are shaped like Cameron Diaz, with no hips whatsoever. I saw that same Old Navy commercial and the ones on the girl who is getting off of the bike (I forget what they're called. Sassy maybe?) look like they'd be much cuter on a curvy body type. But there's no law saying you can't wear skinny jeans. Give them a try, and if you don't like them, stick with bootcut.

Answer 3

I think if you get the right cut of jeans, a cute top and cute shoes, skinny jeans will look great! they're not only for skinny people, the skinny means the pant leg is skinny at the bottom. Don't listen to what other people say when they tell you that just because you have curves you won't look good in them . As long as you feel comfortable with your body, it shouldn't matter what other people think.

I recently bought a pair of the Diva cut jeans in grey and I love them! About the top and shoes, a cute babydoll top or a tank top with a sweater and pointy-toed boots will look great. Good Luck!

Answer 4

I would say as a general rule of thumb, skinny people are usually the only ones that end up looking great in skinny jeans. I am a size 6 and I look terrible in them; they easily make me look 20 lbs heavier. However, it's all about how you wear the clothes so I wouldn't stay away from them just because of that! Go try them on! You may be able to completely pull them off!

Answer 5

the thing about skinny jeans is that the way they are made bacially enhances and shows off a persons shape. so a really skinny girl can look like she somewhat has hips. when it comes to people who have been blessed with a curvy lower half it may have an adverse effect and it just really makes your hips look really big. Some people try and pull it off but usually it doesnt make people with big hips look all that flattering especially bc skinny jeans tend to fit real tight...if anything try them out and see if u can rock them but if anything wear booty cut jeans to balance out your shape

Answer 6

Skinny jeans basically just take your body shape unlike regular baggy jeans that make you look as if u have extra baggage! So I don't see why you couldn't wear them considering curvy and fat are two very different things! So I'd say go for it! LUCK!

Answer 7

try bootcut jeans! if its wasn't for bootcut, skinny would not be around. Skinny's only work for people under 120 and who have the supermodel body. I think that express has some skinny for curvey women. Check it out and see

Answer 8

it depends. i mean some people [regardless of size] can pull them off real well. while others can't. skinny jeans are in style right now. but style shouldn't be limited to your body type. if you think that you can pull them off. go for it. but one thing is that, skinny jeans look best on tall skinny girls. but that doesn't mean it won't look good on you!
good luck =]

Answer 9

you can totally pull off skinny jeans, with a good pair of high heels to accentuate the leg and a baby doll top wit band under the bust.

Answer 10

There is a fine line between curvy and fat. If you are curvy, the jeans might be alright, but not if you're fat.
