What are NYDJ Marilyn straight jeans?

The Marilyn is NYDJ's classic straight leg jean. It has the Lift Tuck panel at the front to smooth the tummy and a back cut that lifts, with a straight leg that skims the thigh and falls straight to the shoe.

Where can I buy NYDJ jeans in the UK?

At Shirley Allum on the High Street in Shaftesbury, Dorset, and online at shirleyallum.co.uk. We carry the NYDJ Marilyn in denim, cord and trouser styles, along with other NYDJ fits such as the Sheri slim and Alina.

We think so, if you want a jean that holds you in at the front without feeling tight. The Lift Tuck panel does real work, and the Marilyn's straight leg is easy to wear with almost anything.

Should I size down in NYDJ jeans?

Usually, yes. NYDJ jeans are cut generously and the denim gives a little as you wear them, so our advice is to try one size smaller than you normally would. If you can, try both sizes in the shop.

What is NYDJ Lift Tuck technology?

Lift Tuck is NYDJ's built-in front panel. It sits inside the jean to smooth the tummy, while the shaping at the back lifts. It is part of every Marilyn, so you get the effect without wearing anything extra.

NYDJ Marilyn Jeans

NYDJ Marilyn straight jeans have NYDJ's Lift Tuck panel built in at the front, which smooths the tummy, with a cut at the back that lifts. That panel is what NYDJ, or Not Your Daughter's Jeans, is known for.

Marilyn is NYDJ's classic straight leg. It skims the thigh and falls straight to the shoe, so it looks smart with a shirt and loafers and relaxed with a jumper.

We carry the Marilyn in several washes and colours, in cord, and as a straight leg trouser. The Waist Match version pulls on with a soft elastic waist.

A tip from us: NYDJ is cut generously, so we usually suggest trying a size down. Try two sizes side by side in our Shaftesbury fitting room if you can.
