Most pants are cut in a similar way regardless of size; as the size scales up or down, the cut, or fit, stays the same. This cut is for one specific body type and thus does not fit women with curves very well. So regardless of size, the cut will never work with our body type.
CurvedWear recognizes that one cut or style does not fit all. We recognize that curvy gals want to look good and feel good and be comfortable. We recognize that curvy gals want access to clothes with a good fit, comfort, style, and technical features. We recognize that function and fashion for curvy gals can both exist.
CurvedWear stands for #EqualPlay for every body.
THE CURVEDWEAR STORY
CurvedWear was born out of a personal need for functional and comfortable pants for travel and outdoor activities, but an inability to find any that had room in the butt, hips, and thighs and weren't too large or have a huge gap in the waist. Tired of having to buy men’s pants or larger pants needing serious alterations, I designed my own. For myself and for you.
​
To design the perfect pants for us curvy gals, I was looking for material that was stretchy and soft and had room in the butt, hips, and thighs, where we often need more room. I wanted pants that came up high enough in the back but didn’t gap and were still fashionable. I wanted an inside drawstring for a perfect fit in the waist. I wanted functional, technical material that was wrinkle resistant, moisture-wicking, and quick drying. I wanted pants that are appropriate for various cultures and climates. I wanted not just an adequate number of pockets, but pockets that were functional for when I didn’t want to carry a purse. I wanted a secret pocket. Essentially, I wanted all of the things that are currently available to my regularly proportioned friends who could easily find these kind of pants.
I hope that you find the comfort and function you want for your beautiful curves at CurvedWear!

WHO'S BEHIND CURVEDWEAR
Amy earned her PhD in forensic psychology and was a government policy researcher for more than a decade, focusing on juvenile justice and human trafficking. She has also been an activist for women's rights and getting more women into elected office. But for many years, she had one dream: To find a pair of outdoor technical pants that fit. After a girls' trip to Iceland where she had to rely on pants that were too big in the waist and men's pants, she decided that if no one else was going to make pants for women with curves, she would.
​
She dove into learning about fabric, manufacturing, and what "contoured waist" meant. With enthusiastic support, she iterated and re-iterated a prototype until it was perfect. The result is what she hopes will contribute in some small way to changing the industry so that all women are served equally.
