Can anyone tell me if Paige Melrose in Midnight Rocker runs large, small or TTS?

I have heard that many Paige cuts run small, and so have searched for a size up. However, I've learned to shop by measurements, and look for a 27"- 28" waistband, and a 7" rise in any size from 23 to 26. I'm frustrated by Paiges though, since the measurements of most 24's seem too small, and on the 25's, too large. I can't squash into a 26" waist, and a 29" waist will fall off. I'm petite, slender and have no booty.

I found a pair I want in size 24, and the measurements are perfect; but I'm worried that there is some other feature that is going to mean they'll be too small for me. I don't live near a B&M store that sells Paiges, so I can't try them on. Please help!

Hmm though I don't own any midnight rockers, I have tried them on. I'm slim and slender and have no butt either. I tried Laurel Canyons in midnight rocker in 24 and they were tight! I could easily size up. I'm not sure if the Melroses fit different in midnight rocker, sorry but keep in mind that they're straight leg.

Yeah, I think midnight rocker runs small in general. I, for one, am glad it does.

Thank you both so much! Based on your remarks, I decided to go with a size 25, altho for some reason the waist on the 25's is listed as smaller than the waist on the 24's (27" vs. 28"). I know I'm not as tiny as you, Dojoqueen, and I remember reading that Paige 24's usually fit you well, so they would probably be too tight on me. Too-tight straight jeans = :rant

I love these and surely hope they fit me! I'm kind of a sucker for blingy pockets and these have the medallion pocket.

^You'll love them. Those are one of my favorites. They run a little small, but I think a lot of it depends on the size of one's hips since the rise is low (mine are a hair under 6.5").

Thanks cat! It sounds like I made the right choice then. I hope they will look half as nice on me as your Paiges do on you. You have a gorgeous figure!

 

[Dojoqueen]

I agree; you will love them. :love

Pics when you get 'em!

Provided I made the right choice and can actually wear them - of course! This will bust my Paige cherry.

(I have lots of cherries remaining and am looking fwd to busting all of them.)

Midnight Rocker also has a lot of recovery so you don't get saggy butt when you are wearing them. I think it has the most recovery of any Paige wash. Mine are slightly tight when I put them on, they stretch out perfect and they shrink right back up when I sit down to pee :jumping No other Paige wash recovers quite that quickly.

I have midnight rocker in melrose - for me they are tts for paige, but one size small compared to other brands. I always wear the same size in Paige though, no matter what the cut or wash is.

They're here, they're here! And they fit perfectly and are super comfy. I went by measurements rather than size and I did all right. Now I want more! If these are considered to run small, I'm wondering if I should size down on the next ones? Probably will just go by measurements since that seems to work.

I'll post pix after I fix the hem, needs to be 32" not 35" unfortunately.

Great news. I'm glad they fit.
