I'm 5ft, and I have to wear Topshop jeans as work uniform (because I work there, grr). You might want to try their petite range, basically all the jeans are sized down so that if it says super low-rise on the label, it'll be super low rise on someone smaller than 5ft 3.

Having said that, I bought some Topshop jeans called 'Rizz' in regular size and they were really low, so you might want to have a look at them :smile:

Also, Diesel do some really really low rise jeans! I have some which are called 'Cherone' (I think they're last season's, so you might be able to find some in a sale somewhere), and they're really low. Levi's 'Eve' jeans are pretty low too.

I wouldn't recommend Next jeans as I always find they sit too high on the waist. Also, Oasis jeans are ridiculously high waisted so don't bother with those.

I'm not an 'expert' in finding the right petite jeans, since i'm 5' 8!
I know you've said you've tried Topshop, but are the jeans you've tried from the regular range? If so, try the Petite range: in their larger stores in particular, they always seem to have an extensive range.

Other brands which seem to have low waisted jeans but have shorter leg lengths available are New Look, Diesel, Fornarina, and Replay - the last two especially might be good, Fornarina in particular, since if im not much mistaken they originate in Italy (like Miss Sixty) and so might be a similar fit to your discontinued Miss Sixty Jeans?

Maybe try Levis and Gap also.... both of their jeans range are huge!
