FOUR IN TEN WOMEN ARE SQUEEZING INTO TOO-TIGHT JEANS BECAUSE THEY DONT WANT TO ADMIT THEY NEED THE NEXT SIZE UP More than four in ten women are squeezing into jeans that are too tight because they do not want to admit they need a bigger size, new research has found. Millions of denim divas would rather spill out of their jeans than admit defeat and move up to the next waist size, said the study by fashion and lifestyle club StyleCard. A survey of 1,000 women found 87 percent wear jeans at least once a week and own an average of eight pairs although they only have three they regularly wear. But 42 percent refuse to move up a size and continue to wear a pair that they know are too tight, leading to the muffin top phenomenon of recent years. More than half own a pair of skinny jeans they do not even try to fit into but keep in their closets in the hope they will lose enough weight to wear them again one day. Almost six in ten (58 percent) have trouble finding jeans that fit and flatter but it has not stopped a vast majority (93 percent) from owning a pair, said StyleCard.
