Just wondering if anyone's tried these. My problem is more 'not having a lower back curve leads to no ass' than having a sagging butt, but I'm just wondering what these jeans are like, or if they have any effect on someone who's small to begin with.

Then again, at $68/pair I don't imagine too many folks here buy them.

when I go to the mall this weekend with my mom I might stop by the VS place and try em on if they have em there    If I do I'll let you know how they work, as I have no butt.

I think you'll be out of luck. I waltzed into a VS store a few weeks ago and said "I'm small, as you can see. I need size 0 jeans, but I can't find them anywhere. I know you guys make them. he;lp."

And was informed that they're only available through the website.   

[Kat]

ugh.  I hate not being able to find my size, especially things my size on the sale racks.  The lowest I can usually find is a four.  I've had to order some of my stuff online because the stores don't often carry zeros.  Even worse is that some brands' version of zero is still too big for me    I can't wear levi's because of that.

[Autumn]

The VS woman told me to head to some other chain, I can't remember the name now, that had one single pair of 0s. But it was designed for curvy women.

So their "0" fit twiggy me like a size 6. However the hell that works.

[Kat]

well, I went to a VS store today just for the hell of it, and no dice.  Apparently only a couple stores in california and maybe a few other locations actually carry anything other than pajamas/lingerie so I'd have to buy them, just to try them on.  not worth it!

I just tried on a couple pairs of a friend's VS pants tonight. Not the special ones mentioned above, but ones that still hug pretty well.

Oh... My... GOD!

I had no idea. It's *amazing*. Everything I have is so blah and boring.

These are NOT boring, rofl. Oh I am SOOOO going to enjoy this new life of mine, lol.

BUT... I ain't no size zero. I have fat for them to mold.

The nice thing is they streeeeeetch wonderfully, so even though they're tight, they're also very, very comfortable.

It's just... I dunno if I could really wear them to work, lol. I mean I COULD, buuuuut... damn.

Heels. Kate needs heels...

I would pay that if they would fit me.  I saw them in the new flier that just came out.  Glad to know they are that good.

Would you wear those pants to work (small office)?

Not with 5" spiked heels or anything, but I mean along with low heels or flats, a cute (not low-cut) top...?

I mean, they're JUST SLACKS, right?

~Kate~

[Kat]

they are the devil's slacks!  *ominous creepy music*


in other news, due to a shortage of pants at VS, I went to Old Navy and got some "the flirt" jeans, and I <3 them very very much.

Oh! I should mention that The Gap has *exactly* the same pants as I have from VS. It's like they just have different labels. BUT... while they're sexy and shaping, they're not quite the same pants mentioned in the thread. STILL... they're really nice.

I have those jeans.  I don't wear them very often.  You can't really uplift what isn't there.  I've found cut and back pocket styling do a much better job at accentuating what I do have than them.

Like I would suggest getting jeans with smaller back pockets, with some kind of design on them.  When you get long pockets, it tends to elongate your butt and make it seem less big.  Which is what some women want obviously, that's why they are there.  But if you don't have a butt, you need to go in the opposite direction.

Miss Sixty is my favorite jean brand right now.  They make them pretty long, and they tend to fit me pretty well through the hips.

Plus VS jeans just feel kind of cheap to me for some reason.

Stupid mass cannot be created or destroyed law.... 

[Holly]

I am going to have to get me some of those, I have a very blah flat rear, and I would love to have a nice round butt.   The stair climber is not helping!!!!

[Kate]

Stupid mass cannot be created or destroyed law.... 

Oh I dunno, lol... I find that pizza, mac & cheese, and huge pasta dinners create mass JUST fine

Now the "destroyed" part? Yes, MUCH more difficult, lol...

Only on fridays here... but I meant the VS slacks, which do the same exact thing as the jeans, same cut and all.

I have it on authority now via my wife that NO. I cannot, under any circumstances, wear them to work, lol. Unless my "work" is a much less respectable profession...

Victoria Secret jean/slacks model?

None of the numbers on the tags match anything on the site (they were a gift). But they seem to be The Christie Fit flare pant in stretch cotton

My wife has since softened her view to "weeeeeelllll... MAYBE you could wear them... but ONLY with a top that doesn't emphasize the rear even more."

In other words wear a shirt that drags behind your knees so nobody can see your butt!!
