As a postpartum mom, these fit so amazing. I love the buttons instead of the zipper design. The quality of these is amazing as always. Levi’s is a brand known for its durability for a reason. These shorts will last for years on years.

For my ladies with a small waist and big glutes
2 months ago
Finally a pair of shorts that fit us girls with a small waist and bigger butt . They are comfortable and high waisted which is a plus . Perfect for outdoor summer activities . It’s really hard for a person with my body shape to find shorts so I’m glad they came out with this style! I’m definitely a fan!

Great shorts for smaller waist/larger thigh and booty
2 months ago
Great quality shorts. They are the perfect length, not super long but not so short that things are falling out. I love the button fly. Make sure you understand that the waist is not super stretchy as it’s meant to be smaller than the rest of the short. Now I need other colors!

Full hips and thighs, smaller waist friendly short
2 months ago
These are great for people who have a smaller waist and fuller hips/thighs. No waist gap in these like I had with the ribcage. I sized up two sizes, regularly a 29, ended up with a 31.

Holy grail jean shorts if you have a booty + hips
2 months ago
These shorts are a must-have if your booty and hips are significantly bigger than your waist. I had a pair of vintage Levis I loved but after I hit 40 they were way too tight for comfort. After many failed attempts to find new shorts that fit I eventually resorted to looser fitting styles.
These are perfect for me. Fitted in the waist and hips and comfortable to wear all day. The length falls just below my bum so they are short but leave something to the imagination.
You absolutely must take your measurements and match them to the size chart for this specific style. I now have 4 different styles of Levis that all fit great, and they are not the same waist size. This makes sense if you're curvy on the bottom because different styles sit higher or lower on your waist/hips.

These shorts are perfection for big booty and big thigh girlies. I have a small waist and larger bum/thighs so I have a hard time finding jeans that not my bum without a giant gap in the waist. The new curvy style is perfect in every way. The shorts still give a massive wedgie but I think that’s just the style. Wish they had more colors.

Beautiful heels but careful with how you tie it around your ankle. If you have long nails the flowers may cut stuck

Levi’s shorts

Levi’s 501 Curve Women’s Shorts feel just like the full length jeans. The material is thick, the stitching is strong and the hardware is the same. They are super durable. They are a little short in length for my liking, but a great pair of shorts.
