Never tried new classic stretch. Havent purchased any in couple years, but gained weight & need size larger. After much aggravation & $ on returns I had finally found virtual stretch to be best for me, but seems those arent embellished & that is what I want-(73 with memories of the 70’s, lol)
I would certainly appreciate any advice from those who have tried both & know the difference. Thanks a bunch!!

The classic stretch is a heavier fabric and I go up a size from the virtual stretch. They are still very comfortable.

  Thanks for information. Did not know there was a difference in thickness of fabric. Will stick with virtual, but wish she would embellish some of them, although I am careful to not purchase any with glued on embellishments, as they come off in wash. I miss the quality of years ago when she used grommets to apply rhinestones.
  I am laughing so hard, as you made me realize it is probably time to get rid of my hoard of DG2 jeans in boxes in the basement. they begin in size 10-I am now 16 or 18P. I am 73 & its time to stop fooling myself. Thanks for making me think!! lol

Sherryrose, I just did the same thing I am 66 and had size 6 and 8 that won’t ever fit me again. I bagged them up 2 weeks ago for charity. I had some I hadn’t even worn. lol.

  kindred spirits lol. Two huge boxes I made mistake of looking thru-some with tags still attached, now sitting in family room. Need to do more attitude adjusting prior to being able to put them in vehicle.!!!

I’m in the same boat! I lost weight due to medication I was taking about 5 years ago. I thought I would never gain it back. Well, I did. I am planning on taking the new that I have to a consignment shop & donating the rest.

I was getting an HP notebook, but they did not mention if you can use it or is it compatible with any printer?

I had to go up a size in the new classic stretch. They do not stretch as much as the “old” classic. I did get a pair of black in the new classic with the art deco design. I have not worn them yet. I will this winter & during the holidays for sure. A little heavy for fall. I do really like them.
