First off - apologies for the shitty photo quality. I bought them online and black fabric + low indoor lighting is less than ideal for taking photos.

For reference, I’m 5’6”, 170lbs; I have a muscular-curvy build, with ++glutes/quads on a short torso/long legs. I fluctuate btwn 8-12 in lulu bottoms, depending on the style & how I want them to fit. Most of my leggings are 8-10.

These are a perfect fit for me. Aligns cut my glutes in half; Wunder Contour fit considerably better but still slide down if I don’t knot the waistband tie. Issues with other styles are usually the same; if the waistband fits, the thighs and butt are too small; size up & the waistband is too big.

The rise is quite high - I’m pointing at my bellybutton in the second picture. However, I didn’t find it uncomfortable. They’re not meant to be compressive - if they’re too small then the waistband will feel too small. Despite the lack of compression, there isn’t any visible cellulite (I have lots). They didn’t slide down. The fabric feels relatively thin, but smooth and cool. I wore them to the gym and moved through squats & lunges with ease.

I posed as awkwardly as I could for the last picture and IMO they still look good. Will be getting them in another colour ASAP. All of my fellow curvy &/or muscular legging-wearing lulu fans should def give these a shot!
