Not really true to size one thing I'm noticing that you got to watch the stretch with Fashion Nova because it'll say stretch but you got to watch the level of the stretch if you have hips, butt or thighs their sizes to me have changed what used to be good for a 9 is now good for an 11 and what is not a good stretch in 11 is only good for 13.

I’m a 5’4”, 180, thick thighs & butt. Waist size is a 31-32. Usually have to get larger sizes to fit over my hips (45 in). 11/12 usual size depending on material and stretch, bought an 11. These jeans fit my waist and hips perfectly! Usually if hips are perfect fit, then waist is usually too big and gap in the back or waist is perfect and hips feel like they’re being crushed. These jeans fit way better than I thought they would.
