How To Choose Jeans For Your Specific Body Type
There are certain things you may wish to consider when looking at new jeans. Here are some
suggestions for your body type:
Thin or Slim
Consider jeans which have a straight line from the hips to the knee. They could also have
a slight widening (flare) at the bottom of the leg.
If you want low-rise jeans, consider those which are lower in the front and incline slightly
on the back
Curvy
Consider jeans which have a straight line from the hips through the knee. They could
also have a wider opening at the bottom of the leg than those jeans better tailored for thin
or slim women.
Athletic
Assuming that you are athletic and have Ðnarrow“ hips, consider buying low-rise jeans
with a non-traditional waist and belt area.
You can get away with a wider flare at the bottom of your jeans, especially boot-cut
jeans.
Full-figured
Consider sticking with traditional jeans styles, and consider brands which have
Lycra/Spandex as part of the materials.
Choose those jeans which make you look taller and slimmer.
In order to make your legs look longer consider a slight flare at the bottom so that you
balance out your hips and shoulders.
Remember that darker colors will give the appearance of being slimmer.
