I've yet to see those become fashionable. I'm much more self-conscious of the hips and thighs, as you know. But I've never despaired for lack of booty, really - I'm not unhappy with my behind. For better or for worse, all my padding seems to be on the sides, sigh. I got comments from a classmate when I was in junior high letting me know that, and one of my best friends reminded me of it last year. OTOH, EF harem pants and EF jersey and silk slouchy ankle pants, those just drape without obstruction, and make me feel extra lean and elegant.Įven with the marvels of Theory, it all works best with a silky top in a semi tuck or some kind of topper cutting at least half way across the conspicuous absence of Back. So some of the slim-leg are too tight on the calf when they fit waist/hips/thighs. I do have Calves, at 15" they're like my butt slid all the way down to my lower leg. 26-28" is Enough for me at 5'6" with short waist.Īh, no jeans at work: my go-to for trousers is Theory. Boyfriend cardis and blazer jackets, Gentlewoman style, also disguise my derrière. My old Paige Hidden Hills flares are OK but benefit from the miracle of the semi tuck, the asymmetrical and the high-low top. Jeans with poly blend seem the worst for baggy butt, even higher end and even if they're mixed with stretch. The higher percentage of cotton means no baggy butt syndrome. My,current favorites are Gap real straight, their faded wash. One dress too! My rearmost challenge is the excess fabric that droops half way down my thighs like deflated balloons, from where a backside should be. Always had a flat rear at this point (I'm 56) I am resigned that I always will.
