Date: 4/11/12 10:53 AM Is it just me or do these pants not fit her very well? This pic was taken from pinterest. I recently made a pair that fit me like this and I am ready to trash them. However, I see this person posing in these pants like they are all fabulous What do you think?

Date: 4/11/12 1:29 PM my immediate reaction - good grief is she ever so slim. Second reaction, there should be a little more ease going in there for movement. How an earth could you stride about in those?
But hey, that's just my personal thoughts. |

Date: 4/11/12 1:51 PM For anything that tight and unless the model is going to stay stock still 24/7, wrinkles happen. I would expect this if I wanted to be able to sit/bend over without issues. Can't see the upper back waist so no telling if there's back waistband gaping - which is a fit issue.
Speaking for myself I wouldn't make any jean type pant that fits this close this NOT because of the wrinkles, but because my lower body ( especially the front belly ) is not showcase material. If I had this models shape, I wouldn't care about a wrinkle or two or even some bifurcation. < : )
I have a one pair of knit legging type pants and while they look scary in the waist to hip region, they are really comfortable so I just make sure I'm in a long top when I wear them. |

The pants just don't look comfortable to me, even if they have a lot of stretch. ------

Date: 4/11/12 2:22 PM That's the style -- super-slim and stretchy. The only way the pants wouldn't have some wrinkles would be if she were a statue.  ------

Date: 4/11/12 3:38 PM From what I can see those look fine for skinny jeans. They've almost certainly got some stretch to them, so it didn't even occur to me that they'd be uncomfortable to wear. |

Date: 4/11/12 6:09 PM I had some super stretchy fabric and made jeans like these (who knows why, I'm 51). Believe it or not, they really are comfortable. The key is LOTS of lycra. Do I look like this model? No. Will I wear the pants away from home? Maybe with a tunic length top.
From a wearers point of view they are just like leggings. ------

Date: 4/12/12 10:50 AM I think that's just the style. If I had legs like that, I'd wear those too, so if you've got it, flaunt it! ------
