Disclosed is a disposable absorbent article comprising an outer cover and an absorbent assembly joined to said outer cover. The absorbent assembly comprises a liquid impermeable member having a pair of laterally opposed side margins. An absorbent core is joined to said liquid impermeable member between said laterally opposed side margins of said liquid impermeable member. Both the outer cover and the absorbent assembly define a front portion, a rear portion, and an intermediate portion which interconnects the front and rear portions. The lateral width of the absorbent assembly in said intermediate portion is defined by the laterally opposed side margins of said liquid impermeable member. The lateral width of said laterally opposed side margins of said liquid impermeable member in the intermediate portion of said absorbent assembly is greater than the lateral width of the intermediate portion of the outer cover.
