this may only apply to the curvy girls who are bottom heavy, but after reading the reviews telling me to size down I figured I could trust it. maybe I have too much junk in the trunk because these wouldn’t go up past my upper thigh when trying on a medium, which makes sense. I should have stuck to my first mind and just ordered a Large, but these are cute albeit the material is very thin. these are a cute, cheap pant. without looking at the care instructions I’m already knowing these need to be hung to dry.
