Finding straight leg work pants that fit a curvy body should not feel like a part-time job. But if you wear a size 14 to 28, you already know the drill. The waistband gaps in the back, the thighs pull tight, and the length is wrong in both directions somehow. You buy a size up…
There is a stubborn old myth that cropped pants only work on one body type. You have probably heard some version of it, usually from someone who has never actually tried a well-cut cropped trouser on a curvy frame. The truth is simpler.
