We found this great article on eBay of all places giving some tips on how to get a great fit with NYDJ Not Your Daughter’s Jeans (a.k.a. Tummy Tuck Jeans).  Here is an excerpt (read the full article here):

My advice when buying these jeans…DON’T buy one size smaller. They will be too tight and too uncomfortable to wear especially after washing.

Measure your hip first and always ask for hip and waist measurements before purchasing. I like to make certain that the jeans will fit my buyers before I mail them, so I take the time to correspond with each buyer in making sure they have a good fit. Some jeans may have manufacturer size errors, but the measurements will take care of that.

Allow one inch larger and then cook them in the dryer to shrink them to one size smaller. Don’t buy too large of a size, because you will find that they do not shrink that much. NYDJ jeans are tough and hold their shape, so you may not be able to shrink them that much.

Purchasing a size smaller will not only make you feel uncomfortable in a tight fit, but your cellulite will actually bulge through the thigh area since there is no reinforcement in that area of the jean. I strongly suggest wearing a pair of footless pantyhose like Spanx (not mid thigh) under your Capris, or any support panty hose under your standard NYDJ. If Spanx are a bit pricey, then Sarah Blakley (the founder of Spanx) sells the same footless pantyhose at a less expensive price under the name of “Assets.” You can be certain of a smooth look and fit once you place your NYDJ jeans on if you wear some kind of hose, or  shaper mentioned above underneath them.

Here is a little excerpt from the NYDJ About Us page:

Praised by celebrities and real women galore, Not Your Daughter’s Jeans is the most innovative product to hit fashion and beauty industries since control top pantyhose. Never has there been a product that empowered women to look and feel their best the way Not Your Daughter’s Jeans® does. Not Your Daughter’s Jeans addresses problem areas that women across all body types, ages and ethnicities have. They slim the often problematic lower abdomen, contour the hips and lift the butt without the feeling of being stuffed in binding, tight and uncomfortable material. Say goodbye love handles that spill over restricting waistlines and derriere-revealing low riders. These jeans are incredibly soft and will feel more like your favorite pair of sweatpants than your most flattering pants. The secret, their special “crisscross” front panel design and extra stretch in the rear has lead to rave reviews from curvaceous leading ladies Rachel Ray, Diane Sawyer and Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
