This definitely won't help you, but the last time I went jeans shopping, I found one pair that fit me perfectly - in wide leg. It just has the perfect waist-to-hip ratio for me. However, I really don't need more than one pair of wide leg jeans.

The same store, Lane Bryant, had just started a "Right Fit Jeans" line, which has three different waist-to-hip cuts. I'm halfway between two of them, but did find some that fit well enough to buy. The waists on them are a little big, though, so they sometimes get a bit loose after moving around in them a while. These are, however, the first pair of jeans I've owned since time immemorial where they fit my hips and the waist isn't killing me.
