The perfect fit denim short. Absolutely love these shorts. Gorgeous in every way and very flattering. I got the 27 (in en masse colour) and they're my perfect fit. I'm 5'2 and usually a size small or 8/10. Love, love, love them

Comfy for Curves (w/No Chafing)!
3 months ago
I have been on the hunt for jean shorts for the past year and have FINALLY found a pair that fit my curves (not squeeze the life out of me), larger legs and butt with a smaller waist, and that are long enough where I'm not chafing (longer inseam). To be fair, I have not worn these out of the house, so will update my review if this changes (i.e. chafing happens).
I'm a 27.5" waist, but ordered a 28" -- I'm happy to have some extra room in the waist, but it still fits snuggly everywhere else. It also has more stretch than I expected based on the other reviews.
Super flattering (without too much booty showing)!

Huh Perfect Fit
3 months ago
I’m 5’9” 200lbs. I wanted a pair of high waisted shorts that weren’t super short and didn’t have a gap in the waist. These are truly perfect. I want more in different washes. They are very comfortable, I bought them in a 31 thinking they’d be too small and they fit perfectly.

Good quality

I love how these looked! They are tight but the buttons lay very flattering. Usually I’m a 29 but I’ve just had a baby so I sized up to a 30, which fit great in my Abercrombie shorts but these ones are a really tight on the first wear.

Flattering Fit
4 months ago
Thank goodness God gave us hips...and thank goodness Levi's gave us the 501 Curve Women's Shorts! I love the way these shorts flatter my figure. They are roomy enough in the hips and cinched enough at the waist to make moving around easy. I highly recommend these shorts to all of my curvy sisters out there.

Great shorts for curvy girls!
4 months ago
These are a great short for curvy girls. I don’t have any gapping in the waist and the leg holes are big enough without cutting off my thighs. The pockets are large but do not stick out the bottom. The material is high quality and has some structure but still has stretch and softness to it.

Cute while providing coverage!
5 months ago
These are super cute and perfect for summer and concerts! The button fly gives is a nostalgic and vintage feel. The curvy fit allows me to still look cute and feel in style but still have coverage where a lot of styles lack. They are comfortable, high waisted, and durable material. I feel you can dress these up or down and can be very versitile.
