A fourth shopper added: "A very soft jean in a nice denim. Comes up bigger than expected around the hip area especially the front. The fabric is non stretch. Short length spot on for those 5ft 3ins. If you're between a 10 & 12 a 10 should be fine. Sadly had to return as too big on the hip area."

A fifth said: "They do not have any stretch to them but they’re a lovely shape. Fit well on my bum and soft belly, and perfect length. Very flattering shape."

Another pleased shopper added: "Great fit. Bought in three colours."

"I had to return it. The fit it was good, true to size (wide legs as mentioned) around the hips. If you have thin waist it is not ok.. the fabric was great!"

Another wrote: "Not happy with quality. After just one wash, a white spot appeared, and the fabric already feels thin and weak. It’s only a matter of time before it turns into a hole. Really disappointed in the quality."
