What is the deal with jeans? A year ago I could get a pair of jeans that fit perfectly in several different brands. I could always trust the fit of Levi's 501's without even trying them on. I could order from a catalog and never worry. But now -- no way.
In the last several months I bet I've tried on 60 pairs of jeans from Target to the $200 kind. Every single damn pair of pants has a huge gap in the waistband. The pair of Eddie Bauer size 4 jeans I still wear is nowhere near the same fit as the new Eddies. A size 4 now fits my calves, but that's as far as they'd go. I had to jump to an 8 and the butt barely fit while the waist could hold two of me. I do NOT want the neighbor to be able to see my underwear from across the street.
What is the deal? This is so irritating. I can still fit my old size fours. These new ones seem to be made for toothpicks with beer bellies.
This has nothing to do with art, I'm aware, but can you relate to this junk?
HELP!
