    My wife is looking to get a pair of loose "boyfriend" jeans, baggy or wide legged. Most of the jeans nowadays are either flared or skinny and she just wants a normal pair of wide jeans.

    She's tried BT2, Topshop, HOF, Diesel (the brand not the shop), and a few other places with no luck. Anyone got any tips? Note: she's tall, so they need to be long legged. That's the problem with Topshop's ones: too short.

    Topshop do have a tall section up to a 36inch leg.

    I'd try Dorothy Perkins as well, they also have a tall section. I must say I hate skinny jeans, I have one pair and I find them so uncomfortable, always yanking them up. Barely any shops do bootcut jeans anymore :(

    Anyways best of luck!

    Ahh I wear them every so often, got one pair in Dunnes that I love cos they are unreal comfy, they do up to a 34in.

    Awear has a great selection & I have to say I could never fault the quality of their jeans it's one of the rare places I can get jeans to fit! The Only brand in Vera Moda stores used to have them & also Henleys & Animal & Roxy do them.

    Tkmaxx one person said tho no matter what store I'm in there I find it almost impossible to get anything over a 32in!! Took me 1hr one day just to find a pair of Pepe 34in!

    A-Wear jeans are crazy long, I'm 5'6" and wear a short leg there so logically they should scale up from there...

    River Island tend to be pretty decent for slouch/boyfriend styles too, not sure if they would be long enough though.
