If your hips are 27 they actually aren't that large at all. Also, be sure you are measuring your hips at the widest portion of your hips and the largest portion of your buttox. 27 just seems like a somewhat small measurement if your waist is 25, but we women come in all different shapes and sizes so it may be that you are a 25-27. Just in case: link
I agree with the answer that says to try them on. Trying clothes on is always the best way to go to ensure a good fit because the cut of the pants could potentially change the fit even if it is a size up or down from what you normally wear. Also, the sizing is different from store to store, etc. etc. A dressing room is your best bet. However, my waist-hip numbers are 28-39. If I can fit into their jeans, then you can as well. :)
If you are trying to buy online, try viewing their sizing chart. They will be able to give you a good estimate of whatever size jean you may need according to your measurements. Good luck!
It's not recommended by Forever 21 that you go by your waist, that's just how they measure their jeans.
On the size chart on their website, it says a size 3/4-5/6 has a 25-26" waist and 35-36" hips. Based on that, going by your hips wouldn't be a good idea. But the only way to know for sure what fits you best is to try them on.
Id say don't worry about numbers, try on a whole bunch and pick the one that's a size too small
