Men’s jeans come in easy-to-understand sizes, and I’m aware that womens’ don’t. However, the tip they give out on What Not to Wear gets great reviews from those who have actually tried it: Regardless of the listed size, get jeans that fit the widest part of you – usually your hips. Then take them to a tailor and have the waist taken in to fit you – an inexpensive adjustment that leaves you with perfect-fit jeans! (Oh wait, I guess women have to have them hemmed, too. Do clothing designers hate the people they’re designing for?)
