I’ve got a big bum and I always have the same problem with trousers, it drives me mad
A WOMAN shared the worst thing about having a “big butt” as it means her trousers never fit properly.
Influencer Mariah has a small waist but a curvy bum and it causes big problems for wearing jeans.
She demonstrated the issue in a TikTok video where she can be seen trying on a new pair of trousers.
Mariah showed herself facing forwards in the new garment and they appeared to fit well.
But as she turned around it became clear that they were actually massively gaping at the back.
While they fit her shapely bottom well, they were wildly too big for her slim waist.

She captioned the clip with: “One reason why having a big butt is not all that.”
The obvious solution is to cinch in the waist with a belt, but that could cause the material to gather and ruffle, making it just as unflattering.

Fellow TikTokers were quick to chip in with their thoughts on the problem.

One person said: “Yeppppp, fits everywhere except the waist.”
Another said: “Y’all wishing y’all had this but when you try and put a belt on it DON’T work.”
A third said: “‘I wish I had this problem’ trust me you don’t… it makes dressing for EVERY occasion hard.”
But there were several solutions suggested to the frustrating issue.
One person said: “Do the shoelace thing.”
And another explained the trick: “Use a shoe lace just on the back three belt hole thingys and tie it.
“It’ll tighten the back and u don’t have to untie it when u use the bathroom!”
A third person agreed that it’s the best hack: “That’s why I always use the shoe lace.”

While someone else suggested a different hack: “Try adding elastic in the waist band.”
Another agreed: “All y’all gotta do is take it to a seamstress or Taylor and get elastic installed in the waist or darts… and it’s mad cheap tuh.”
