How to Spot the Best Pants for a Curvy Figure

Rule no. 1:The best pants for your frame have a mid-rise to high-rise waist.

Let's get real, waist height is crucial ifyou've got a big booty. A high waist offers the most security and when appropriately tailored, accents the waist to accentuate your hourglass figure.

Rule no. 2:Linen, silk, and pants with a little elastane are your best friends.

When you're curvy, your clothes have to move with you so that your figure shines. Fabrics that are too stiff can make your frame appear boxy and flattened. Pants with just enough stretch will move with your body, feel more comfortable and look chic. Pants with a lot of stretch are also comfy and flattering but offer an edgier look.

Rule no. 3:Pay close attention to the waist tailoring, and choose designs that offer a tapered waist, an elastic waistband, or a tie waist.

The plight of the curvy girl is often the waist to hip ratio. That's why pants that cinch at the waist are must-haves in your wardrobe.There's a lot of information to remember when reforming your wardrobe, so we found fifteen options you'll love from brands every curvy girl needs to know.
