I know this sounds crazy but I have been waiting for L'Argence to ask me for a review as I am so elated with my jeans! I have one of those body shapes that is tiny around the hips, but thicker in the waist, so sometimes buying jeans is a bit of a challenge (ie, too loose around hips, or perfect on hips and too tight around waist).
L'Argence just nails it! There is a nice amount of stretch around the waist for me, and the hips and legs are perfectly synched. I'll be saving up for more pairs (I can't believe I procrastinated for so long to buy these). Very soft and comfortable. For reference, I am 165cm (I bought the regular which was fine for me - no hemming required but I have longer legs to torso), and sit between 26 & 27". I bought size 26.
