I bought into the idea that I needed stretch denim for my bigger butt and legs but those jeans just don’t last. Anything with elastane is designed to wear out within the year. 100% cotton rigid denim is more popular than it used to be and increasingly you can find it cut for curvy women. Levi’s etc have it but different brands will work for different physiques.

If that’s the issue, I wonder if it would be worth having a larger pair of jeans taken in at the waist

Edit: I don’t l know if I’m curvy enough to weigh in, but I did always have problems with gapping in the back before I started to consistently wear the same leather belt. It has actually molded to my body. It is no longer a flat strip of leather. My pants feel like they fit much better, and I think it’s the result of finally getting a good quality belt that I’ve worn enough to break in.
