Ugh, I understand your frustration. The flat ass thing (which I have, too) makes pants shopping super hard. Sorry I misunderstood your original post about your shape. Maybe the LB right fit RED in petite would fit? They are made for the "slightly curvy" - or so they say. But everything at LB has the most absurdly high rise. I haven't bought any of their pants in a while, but I often try them on, JUST TO BE SURE, and am always disappointed. The thing I hate about Avenue's pants is that they assume that the people wearing them have very large, or hanging, lower tummies - so even though I have a big tummy, it's never enough to fill out all the extra material in the front of their pants. And their rise is also up to your eyebrow.
I'm thinking you might need to go higher end to find the best fit. Have you tried Talbots? Or Anne Klein? Also, Eloquii make a "curvy fit" that might be better suited to your hips without the assumption that you have a giant ass (which I often long for!).
