Gauchos were all over the Spring runways, but they can be hard to wear for curvy girls with wide hips like mine. While I’m all for wearing what you love and not just focusing on what’s flattering, it’s also important to feel good in what you’re wearing. Personally, I don’t feel good in wide cut pants, unless the hemline of my shirt goes over my hips. This is how I make gauchos (or any wide cut pants) work for my body type!
FIT NOTES
These are the most comfortable pair of gauchos I’ve tried, and it’s been a long search! The fabric has stretch and they don’t ride up like most culottes or gauchos tend to. I’m wearing a size 16W.
