The Gloria Vanderbilt Jeans Story

Gloria Vanderbilt was an American artist, designer and heiress. In the late 1970s she put her name and signature swan logo on a line of fitted women’s jeans, helping launch the designer-jeans craze.

Unlike stiff straight-leg denim of the time, Gloria Vanderbilt jeans were cut to flatter a woman’s figure — and the Amanda jean became the brand’s signature: high rise, classic tapered leg and a little stretch.

Today the line includes Amanda in tapered, bootcut, straight and flare, pull-on and Shape Effect tummy-control jeans, capris, shorts, ponte pants and Knitology styles, in misses, petite, plus and tall sizes.

Gloria Vanderbilt jeans are sold at department and discount stores such as Kohl’s, JCPenney, Macy’s, Walmart and Costco, as well as on Amazon.

I’ve been buying the Amanda jeans for years. The fit is consistent, which is so hard to find. They have just the right amount of stretch and are comfortable enough to wear all day. I appreciate that I can buy a new pair and know it will fit just like the last.

I purchased a few of the casual knit tops and was pleasantly surprised. The fabric is soft, and the fit is true to size without being too tight or too baggy. They wash well and haven’t lost their shape, making them great staples for my work-from-home wardrobe.

These are my go-to pants for casual Fridays and weekends. The tapered leg is flattering, and the high waist is very comfortable. It’s difficult to find jeans that fit well in both the hip and the waist, but these manage to do it perfectly. A truly dependable product.
