To any other people blessed with a big bum and comparatively small waist (in the opinion of the clothing industry, anyway), I've found a way to help stop your trousers from falling down.

Yes, one can wear a belt, but there are never quite enough belt loops, leaving you with a belt against your skin and the trouser waistband bulging out on one or both sides at the back, instead of being kept in.

Anyway, yeah. Add an extra button, an inch or so further in-band from the original button. Ta-da!

A photo of my jeans with the top button undone. A second button has been added a couple of centimetres towards the first belt loop.

A wider shot of me with the jeans closed on the tighter button. The jeans are button-fly and relatively loosely cut, making it less obvious that this was not the original button.
