I Tried Abercrombie Fitch's Curve-Friendly Denim Styles—These Pairs Stood Out


Abercrombie Fitch's meteoric rise in recent years has piqued the interest of fashion's most curious onlookers, including theBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing staff. One of our editors have previously tried on some of the brand's denim styles and had only good things to say. As for me, the brand's Curve Love line of denim has specifically caught my attention. For those of you who are new to the Abercrombie Fitch rebrand, the Curve Love fit is designed with more inches in the hip area without increasing the waist measurements to achieve that. While I've haphazardly tried on some curvy jeans styles from A&F in the past, it's now been a handful of years later, so I decided to revisit this line. Hopefully, my in-depth review and findings can aid in your pursuit of the perfect pair of jeans.
Curve Love High-Rise Wide-Leg Jean
My Review: These high-rise, wide-leg jeans were not the first pair I tried on, but they were my favorite out of the bunch. I'm partial to a wider leg, and this style was true to that. Once worn, it became obvious that these jeans weren't heavy at all. They're lighter than may be expected for a similar pair of jeans, and that's probably due to the lightweight rigid denim they're made from. I've worn them for many hours, and the jeans maintain their shape quite nicely. Although these were a lighter wash, I did feel like it was possible to dress them up or down seamlessly. I think a wide leg just kind of gives an overall more elevated look than other styles. The high rise also offered that feeling of support in the stomach area. These run pretty true to size, and I didn't have a lot of trouble getting the non-stretch denim over my wider hips.
Size range: 23 37
Inseam: Extra Short Inseam: 26.5", Short Inseam: 28.5", Regular 30.5", Long Inseam: 32.5"
Sizing tip: These are pretty true to size; If you want them to fit even more relaxed, then you should size up
Pros: Lightweight denim; maintains shape well (78% cotton, 22% lyocell); a few different inseam lengths to choose from; minimal waist gapping
Cons: If you are taller than 5'9" (my height), these will not be long enough to look full-length on you
Curve Love High Rise 90s Relaxed Jean
My Review: I'm a big sucker for '90s-inspired cuts of denim. As a plus-size woman, finding vintage jeans can be a bit difficult, so I was looking forward to trying out this cut. I think overall I was satisfied with these jeans, but I do feel like if they were a little roomier in the thighs, then these would have been an excellent pair. Nonetheless, I'd recommend this style for those who have regular to slightly wider hips. I think if your hips are quite wide, then these might not fall exactly as you'd like. There was a little extra tugging needed to get these on, so I'd say size up for the perfect fit. I'm so obsessed with this medium-dark wash. It's a classic look.
Size range: 23 37
Inseam: Extra Short Inseam: 27", Short Inseam: 29", Regular 31", Long Inseam: 33"
Sizing tip: If you're hips are on the wider end, even for a Curve Love fit, you might need to size up, as these run a little small
Pros: Slighty longer insteam than other style; minimal waist gapping
Cons: Many sizes are sold out, but there will be a restock soon
Curve Love Mid Rise 90s Straight Jean
My Review: I decided to give another '90s-inspired cut from the Curve Love collection a try. The mid-rise '90s straight jeans are a great everyday pair that you'll wear for years to come. As for fit, I have a similar note to how I felt about the High-Rise '90s Relaxed Jeans. I do feel like for people that are a little more than slightly curvy, you may want to size up to have the right amount of room remaining in the thighs and hips. There was also some waist gapping, but I do believe for those that only need a couple more inches in the hip area that this won't be an issue. This pair has a good weight to it and fabrication (99% cotton, 1% elastane), which makes it likely to stand the test of time.
Size range: 23 37
Inseam: Extra Short Inseam: 26.5", Short Inseam: 28.5", Regular 30.5", Long Inseam: 32.5"
Sizing tip: Size up, as this style runs small
Pros: Over nine different colorways and a few different inseam lenths
Cons: Many sizes are out of stock in popular colorways; there was still some waist gapping
