why is the fit of my dior 19cm mijs so tight??

[gonegonegone]

hey guys,

i saw a lot pictures of users wearing 19cm mijs, but i feel like mine (size 31) are a bit tighter. them hem is 18,5 cm, so it's definitely a 19cm-model.

the reference code is something like 6hh, so it's from winter 2006. did dior produce any tighter jeans that season?

here a pic:

thanks in advance

[cheep]

you sized down didnt you... dior is cut bigger in the waist so they saaaaag.

[gonegonegone]

well, my real waist size (1 inch under the navel) is around 33"...

size 31 fitted pretty well after i tried them on and size 30 was too tight on the thighs.

so i thought that i'd go with size 31.

i have them since 2 months and i do not wear them constantly, only on weekends.

could that explain my "problem"?

[cheep]

its because you sized down. they are cut to hang on your hips, and if you have a 33 waist you should have gotten a 32 for the runway look. 33 even. by sizing down 2 youre making them fit higher and tighter than they were designed to.

[gonegonegone]

but the 32" would be to loose on my hips... strange.:confused:

maybe the will still stretch a lot.

[cheep]

compare how youre wearing yours to this. im guessing this is the look youre looking for right?

[gonegonegone]

no not really, that's a bit too loose. i really like my tight fit, but i find it kind of strange that other people buy their mijs and when they are new they can't even button them. i could button them and they only were a bit tight...

mine look like 17cm mijs, but the hem is 18,5 cm... weird, isn't it?

So if you like the tight fit of your diors why did you create a thread about it? People's bodies are made differently, which could account for some of it. Also, yes, diors stretch a fair amount. So if you were to wear them consistantly for awhile, they'll stretch out and be a bit looser. But that's not what you want? I'm a bit confused.

[gonegonegone]

i'm confused too. i meant that i like that fit, but expected something different... just don't find any pics right now... will post them after i found them.

[gonegonegone]

that's a pretty nice fit:

i guess that i'd have to buy size 32 if i would want that fit.

[cheep]

yeah... youd have to get a 32 or 33 for that fit. the runway models dont have them fitted tight, but hanging off their bony hips.

[gonegonegone]

but if the 19cm mij is a bit loose in size 32, how will the 21cm model look on me. i can't even imagine the difference... they will be pretty loose even if i buy them in size 31, am i right?

[chronoaug]

You also have to remember that those runway models are rail thin and probably 6ft + and size 27-28. They might even be sizing down but they're so thin it drapes. Kind of like when you see april 77 fit pics from websites and the pants drape nicely but fit skin tight on most people. Sizing up 1 would help get you closer but growing a couple inches and dropping a couple sizes is pretty much the only way to achieve that look completely.

[gonegonegone]

i also own a pair of 19cm miis (also size 31) and they fit a bit looser:

would a mij size 32 look like a mii size 31?

[swooc]

i am still amazed at how slim your mij 31 fits. my 29's dont even look that slim and judging from the pics you look like my size.

[Cameland]

Yeah thats actually quite the difference between the two...

[gonegonegone]

ok...

how come my mij is sooo tight?? swooc, could you post a pic?

[gonegonegone]

i will try to wear them differently and will post my "results" later.

[gonegonegone]

i came after that my mijs are VERY stretchy... are all mijs like that??

sorry for my stupid questions, i just wanna make sure i got a "normal" mij.

[Dex_star]

wow this thread is retarded... im surprised u got serious replies fro anyone

theres a dior thread, theres a small questions thread... theres nothing wrong with ur jeans

edit: nice fit

[gonegonegone]

ok, thanks!

[jschenkkan]

my mii's fit that slim, if not slightly slimmer. i'm 5'10, 142 for reference. i'd post pictures, but i ended up disliking the fit after a while, so i sold them for roughly what i paid.

[gonegonegone]

and did you buy it a size bigger?

[jschenkkan]

and did you buy it a size bigger?

i ended up deciding that it just wasn't my fit, so i went in other directions stylistically.

[gonegonegone]

ok, thanks for your help.

[ktouran6923]

and isnt the mij known to fit tighter and stretch less than the mii? you shouldve sized up one from your mii size....

[swooc]

swooc, could you post a pic?

sz29 mij 19cm

5'10, 148lbs

[andrewexd]

its probably because your not sagging. im sort of suprised that they fit you like that im way fatter than you and i wear a 31 too

[kian]

To have an equivalent fit between the MIIs and MIJs, go down 1 for the MIIs.

[gonegonegone]

ok, so i'm gonna buy a size 32 mij... ^^

and what about mij 21cm... would i have to size 1 down from my 19cm mij size?

can you post your sizes if you own both a 19cm and a 21cm mij please?
