Very nice jeans!
Date:February 2, 2012
I haven't even had a chance to wear these jeans anywhere yet; I've only tried them on. But they seem to have just the right amount of stretch to be comfy and just enough cling to hug your body in all the right places to be slenderizing and figure flattering. They seem true to size. I also love that these jeans actually come up to the waistline, and I won't be constantly tugging at them, pulling them up. No muffin top for me, please. I am so over low-rise pants! I'm going to enjoy wearing these jeans - a lot. I can dress them up or dress them down.

"Festive and Flattering"
Date:January 3, 2012
Love the fabric, love the fit! Only recommendation is to stay away from white napkins. Of course, being velvet, they attract lint. Other than that, would highly recommend.

High quality
Date:December 28, 2011
Great quality but fit too low on the waist to fit my wife.
I am sure someone with a slimmer figure would love them. Wish they fit.

Perfect Velvet Pants
Date:December 23, 2011
Perfect pants for dressing up an evening out or adding some style to a more casual look. These pants fit beautifully and I would definitely suggest ordering a size smaller for a great fit. This brand of pants designs them to be worn a size smaller because of the forgiving fiber content and control ability. An absolute must for any wardrobe!

Just what I was looking for.
Date:December 20, 2011
I love "The Not Your Daughters Jean" line. These velvet jeans are no exeception. Very comfortable. Does not bag or sag in the rear, or the leg. Comfortable waist.
They should fit snug when sizing. They are stretch jeans.

Good Buy

Very soft and comfortable pants as well as warm. I love how jet black they are and they are dressier to wear than a pair of jeans all the time.

LOVE THEM
Date:December 1, 2011
I'm 5'9" and purchased the talls. Long enough I could wear heels.
The fabric is very nice. The stretch is adequate.
I wear a 14 but went up a size and it fits perfectly.

Perfect fit
Date:December 9, 2010
At last a jean that doesn't sit low on the hip but rises up to the waist. Lovely material and leg-hugging fit. I am a 14 and ordered size 14. Perfect.

Worth the money
Date:December 9, 2010
When I saw these I thought, they seem pricy for what are but they did look good. All I can say is that they fit fabulously and were worth every penny.

A bit snug!
Date:December 9, 2010
I've only worn them once so far, but the fit is a bit too snug in the thigh/knee area. I don't have the thinest legs for sure, but the "non-velvet" Barbara Jeans in same size fit beautifully. Must be the velvet material. Not sure I'm keeping them.

I have worn NYDJ for several years. I have always worn a size4 and still do however I found the velvet Jeans to be smaller and needed to order a size larger. Love them.

Barbara Velvet Jeans
Date:December 1, 2010
The jeans were great, but way too tight in the thighs....would love to have had them, but too expensive to keep and not feel comfortable when wearing. The length is perfect on them...just a bit to tight for my taste.

Hooray for NYDJ's!
Date:October 27, 2010
Not Your Daughter's Jeans are one of the best fitting pair of jeans that I have ever found. And as the product recommended, one size smaller than I usually wear was the perfect cut and length for me. The black velvet Barbara jeans will see me through the holidays in great style. Thank you Soft Surroundings for adding these to your catalog.
