I mean, belts exist.

You either get big pockets or tight fitting, sexy clothes. Pick one.

Everyone in this thread is acting like guys' clothes don't also have a huge range of fits even within the same measurements...

Let me tell you as a guy with big thighs, the 'difficult fit' problem is not unique to women's clothing. It's just exacerbated by the norm of tight clothes for women. If you want to wear guy's clothes for the pockets, you'll have to deal with the norm of not-tight looks, and that often means belts.

Getting something that has both good form (stylish, fitting) and good function (large pockets) is not easy. For any gender. Especially if you're not willing to throw on a belt and/or wear something baggy.

I just want to say, this is not true. I have a couple pairs of jeans, some skirts, and a few super cute dresses that all have functional sized pockets and yes some are tight fitting and “sexy”. Even my workout leggings have functional pockets. We can have both, they are just difficult to find because so many companies add pockets that can barely hold a chapstick.
