Mark and Spencer has gone viral on social media in recent weeks due to a pair of jeans shoppers say are ‘fantastic’ and ‘flatter any body shape’. The high-street icon is known for selling a wide variety of top-quality clothing, accessories, and shoes, and its collection of jeans often receives high praise from customers.
The latest pair impressing Brits are the store’s new Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans with Lyocell. Priced at £39.50, the jeans come in two colours – light and dark indigo – and three different lengths – including petite, regular and long.
Out of those, there are also 26 sizes to pick, ranging from a six to 22. However, a few sizes are already low in stock or have sold out, so if you’re keen to get involved with the latest trend, you’re best to act fast.
The Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans are crafted from pure cotton denim with a touch of lightweight lyocell for “extra comfort”. They’re designed in a slouchy mid-rise fit, with a self-tie belt at the waist – a look that’s bang on trendy this season.
The jeans also come with handy side pockets, while its patch pockets on the back complete the versatile style. M&S describes the Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans as an “easy-to-wear wardrobe staple that combine classic and contemporary styles”.
On TikTok, a shopper who goes by the username @_Jaymilyon, uploaded of video of her trying the Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans on in stores. “These jeans are a must, sized up a bit for that oversized fit,” she wrote in the caption. At the start of the video, she added: “Let’s try and find the viral M&S jeans.”
So far, customers have given the Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans an impressive score of 4.6 out of five stars. The majority of reviewers even say they would recommend the jeans to a friend and ticked the ‘true to size’ box.
Daisy, who had been trying to buy a pair that suits her body shape, wrote: “I haven’t been able to find flattering jeans for such a long time, as I am such an awkward shape, but these jeans are just the best. Guessing that lots of size 16 wearers thought the same as I struggled to find a pair and searched far and wide.”
A second put: “Very flattering for 5’2” with narrow waist and curvy hips. Stylish and comfortable too.” Skylark said: “LOVE! I had my eye on these for a while and so pleased with them. Quality is excellent, well fitting, denim wash is lovely and nice tie detail. I’m currently wearing them to death!”
Beck typed: “I love these Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans. Don’t lose their shape and wash very well. I’m a 12-14 and the 12 is a perfect fit.” HD shared: “Love them. Great fit and look fab. Loads of compliments.” One more admitted: “I love these jeans and get loads of comments. I did cut the tie string out.”
However, some weren’t keen on the fit and material. Lin said: “Really didn’t like these- the legs were an odd shape and I didn’t like the string belt – returned.” Julie added: “I like the style, just the right width but didn’t like the rigid feel. Would prefer more stretch.”
Another took issue with the sizing, writing: “Inconsistent sizing. The one I tried at store (uk 6 petite) was tighter than the one I ordered online.” If you are after a new pair of wide-leg jeans, like Marks and Spencer’s Mid Rise Wide Leg Jeans, there are many more you can browse through.
