I like these cords, but they are too long. I have a pair of NMDJ Marilyn jeans (same style) and they did not need hemmed. These cords do need hemmed and they're both size 6 petite.I have several pair of NYDJ cords in the same suze (10 petite) that fit perfectly. These are a little small.Ordered a Misses size 8, which is my usual size. but had to exchange for a size 10. Now the jeans fit!I ordered this in error. The pants were corduroy.I needed summer pants but love NYDJ.I had ordered the identical size 14P straight NYDJ pants I was wearing but nothing was identical to my original pair still fitting and in use. What I got was too long, too wide, too baggy and ill-fitting. Only the color was ok. I washed them hot hoping for enough shrinkage to be wearable but that did not work. I doubt that I received an authentic NYDJ pair of pants. I should have returned them.Got the petite size, and the length is too short. Would love to find a boot cut for this brand that was 29"-30" but no luck.Perfect fit. They are kind of expensive but should last me two years if I hang them to dry rather than dry them in my dryer.Fits bigger than the Marilyn Denim jeans. Otherwise the great NYDJ fit perfect for big butts and small waists.I was so pleased when I tried these on, they look just perfect and cannot wait to wear them when the weather gets a bit cooler!
