So I'm on the larger side of body type. I'm 5'5" and 196 pounds. I usually wear either a 14 or 16 in pants. Since this was such an unknown for me, I got the XL and figured if it's too big or too small I've got time to return it and get a different size. The XL worked, but like many reviewers have said, the crotch was very low and the length was too long for my heels. It worked as long as I pulled the pants up to JUST below my bra. This brought the crotch TO my crotch and made it so I would barely not trip. Being SUPER excited to wear these I figured that would be doable.I ordered another pair in L to do a side by side comparison. The L could be HALF AN INCH longer to be perfect, but the waist and crotch are PERFECT and I can still wear my heels and it looks fine. Again, half an inch longer would be perfect, but it's awesome as is. I thought maybe I saw like a bald spot on my butt sequins, so I decided to REALLY examine the Large pair instead of putting them away until DECEMBER when I plan to wear them. In doing so, I found that the seam at the waist isn't fully sewed so there's like a hole there. I can't sew at ALL, so I started another return (this time for an exchange since I KNOW I love these pants and I know I'm a Large.) So if you are between a 14 and a 16, I would suggest doing the L (12-14) instead of the XL (16-18).The picture is of the XL pair. I took it to text my mom, not for review purposes, so I apologize if it doesn't "showcase" the pants enough.I guess the basic take away is I'm NOT skinny (as you can see in my pic) and I found these flattering, comfortable, and fierce. LOL
