Nostalgia aside, societally, we're in thebest era of fashionto date. Fashion girls are voting with their dollars and refusing to support brands that negatively impact the environment. The response from the fashion community was many brands stepping up to be more transparent about their practices and more space for freshbrands like Reformation,Madewell, andEverlaneto grab the spotlight. We've got more brands creating genuinely cute clothing for all body types than ever before. And, more than ever before, women are hearing and seeing a near-constant celebration ofbody positivity.

This is the best time to be a style-addicted curvy woman. Specifically, it's a really good time to be a fashion girl with a muffin top. The phrase "dress for your body type" no longer means “limitation”, but truly finding the most comfortable fit within a plethora of cute designs.

For decades, jean styles were primarily low-rise with some sprinkles of mid-rise styles. This meant ladies with big butts, or a small waist to hip ratio, and ladies with love-handles were S.O.L. Then, both groups received some reprieve in the form of high-waisted and ultra-high waisted jeans.Suddenly, curvy women had a solid option for sporting thehottest jeans styleswithout the dreaded spillage -noshapewearrequired.

Mid-rise and high-waistjeansare your best friend and should become a standard staple in your wardrobe. Below, we've scoured every brand and explored the best jeans for muffin tops, for your style and comfort pleasure.
