    Hi, I'm just wondering what people think of pull and bear jeans sizes? I am a petite size 6 and would fit into other shop brands jeans in this size. Pull and bear seems to be the only shop that makes non stretchy jeans in sizes so small I cant imagine are designed for adult women even if very petite. Are these the correct measurements for smaller sizes and the others are generous fitting? Their size 6 seem to be designed for pre pubescent girls. I am wearing a pair now I purchased yesterday on sale and the waist is cutting into my hip bone, and I dont really have any hips.

    Used to always buy jeans there - I usually had to go up a size. They had a great selection of colours/styles for very reasonable prices, if you were prepared to try on a few. That said I think their prices may have gone up?
    Isn't it a Spanish shop? Would Spanish women generally be smaller for that sizing? (I've no idea, remember someone saying that so just wondering!) Would have thought Bershka would be a bigger offender than Pull & Bear in the area of tiny jeans though, they seem to stock very small sizes.

    Yea I would probably be more comfortable in their size 8 but I got the 6 because they were on sale and very cheap for a nice pair of jeans! They are spanish, and I think are owned by same group that own Zara, Bershka and a few others. They all make very small sizes but I've just noticed P&B are being particularly stingy with material. They seem to be similar to the waist and hip size of say 9-10 yrs in H&M kids. I wonder are they aiming at the teenage market, or is there a big market for size 4 straight up and down figured women in Ireland.
