"Have loved this style of NYDJ for years! Love the color and as always, love the fit!"
"Great jeans. Love the lighter weight fabric."
"I only wear NYDJ. I love the fit and quality but these jeans were too long. I’m 5’9” and could only wear these jeans with heels and I don’t wear heels. Next time I’ll only order Marilyn jeans. I love your service and easy return policy."
"Love love love the fit ! I usually have waist gap by the time I find jeans to fit over my thicker legs These fit waist, hips, thighs and length as if they were custom !"
"I love NYDJ and this fit well and look goof"
"Love the Marilyn Straight Jeans! Love NY DJ Jeans. The best!"
"Been wearing Marilyn straights for over a decade. Tried MANY other jeans, and for me, these are the very best. They always have a top spot on MY LIST (Oprah agrees!). Consistent fit and sizing. Always look great and wear well. Love to add new colors, especially on sale. These do not disappoint."
"Perfect fit classic styling and comfy! New favorite pair of jeans! Love"
"Love this brand. Very flattering and the length is great for a tall woman. I can size down in this jean."
"So happy with these really comfortable jeans. They are long enough to wear over boots and do not ride up. They maybe too long for those who like ankle jeans but for those of us who loathe that length in the Winter you have found your jeans."
The Marilyn Straight has a slightly higher rise and a clean straight leg that elongates the silhouette. It's cut true to size for most customers, with our signature Lift Tuck® Technology panel built into the waistband and seat to smooth and support without changing the fit through the leg. If you're between sizes, size down for a more fitted look through the hip or size up for extra ease.
Lift Tuck® is NYDJ's proprietary inner construction — a hidden shaping panel sewn into the waistband and seat that lifts, tucks, and smooths the tummy and rear without the bulk of external shapewear. It's built into the jean itself, so there's nothing extra to wear underneath.
Check the size chart on this page for the exact waist/hip measurements for this style. As a general guide: size down for a closer, more tailored fit.
The Missy/Regular Marilyn is cut for average height (typically 5'4"–5'8"). If you need a shorter or longer inseam, see our Marilyn Petite or Marilyn Tall collections, which use the same silhouette re-graded for different heights.
Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Avoid high heat in the dryer — tumble low or hang dry — since excess heat breaks down the elastane fibers and reduces stretch recovery over time. Skip fabric softener, which coats the fibers and dulls stretch performance.
Yes. The Marilyn Straight is produced using earth-friendly methods that reduce consumption of water, chemicals, and energy compared to conventional denim processing.
