How to choose jeans

What do you pay attention to when choosing jeans in the first place? Someone thinks that it is important to follow the trends, others carefully choose the color of jeans so that they fit into the already assembled wardrobe. This is all, of course, important, but we must not forget that the main thing is to choose a model that “fits” on the figure, and not just look stylish by itself.

In fact, to pick up a good jeans, which will smooth out minor flaws of the figure and emphasize its obvious advantages, there is nothing difficult. Jeans are divided into straight, skinny and flared. Already based on them are created other original models.

By type of figure

Not all jeans equally well fit different shapes. For example, low-rise jeans, passing the waist, will create ugly folds in the abdomen, and baggy pants will make the hips bigger. In order to avoid such fashionable mistakes, let's consider the main types of the figure and which jeans are best for their owners to choose.

The very first type of figure is “apple”. Differs in that the upper body is visually larger than the lower.

If you have wide shoulders and a large chest, but at the same time rather narrow hips, then this is just your type of figure. To balance the silhouette, you can opt for flared jeans.

Also look at the models of free cut. A vivid example is “boyfriends”. But any other free jeans that do not fit legs are also suitable. These recommendations also apply to slender girls with a boyish figure. Straight jeans of a free cut, despite their unfeminine name, will make your figure more proportionate.

The second type of figure is “pear”. Determining the owner of such a figure is easy: a small chest, thin waist and lush hips.

If you recognize yourself in this description, try to avoid skinny and torn jeans. In both cases, you risk looking in jeans more fully than it actually is.

However, as they say, "if you really want, then you can." Girls with lush shapes can combine skinny with a free top or, for example, a cardigan that reaches the mid-thigh and hides problem areas.

Girls with a pear-shaped body type are suitable for jeans from dark fabric with an average fit, which will visually reduce the amount of hips and bottoms. As for the cut, it is better to choose more loose jeans, but in no case baggy. In addition, if you have large buttocks, better wear jeans with a minimal amount of decoration on the back pockets. If your buttocks are flat, and you are not averse to visually increasing them, buy jeans with bulky pockets, large stickers and an abundance of decor in this area.

Owners of hourglass figures are most lucky. Firstly, because such a figure is considered the standard of female beauty. And secondly, due to the fact that girls with a thin waist and proportional breasts and hips, fit any jeans.

If you have this type of figure, you can safely wear everything: straight jeans, wide, flared or skinny. Stylists advise this season to look at jeans with high waist. They will emphasize your smooth bends, and if necessary, hide a small tummy, making the figure perfect.

This is what the basic rules for choosing jeans are. Well, to make sure that you made the right choice is very simple - when you try on, you will feel that they fit you in size, do not dig into the skin and do not constrain movements.

By landing type

We have already talked about how jeans with the wrong fit could ruin your look. Now we will determine which type of planting should be chosen to achieve the opposite effect.

Jeans fit is the level at which the pants belt is located. It can be medium, low and high. With a high fit, the belt is at the middle of the waist, with a low waist it is held at the hips, and the middle one is a transition between these two extremes. So how not to be mistaken with the choice of the ideal height of the belt?

Correct criteria

High-rise jeans were originally created for horse riders. Since they are constantly in a sitting position, while moving in time with the horse’s gallop, it was important that the pants did not crawl and bare the body during the races. Later this style became fashionable and is now actively regaining popularity among women after almost two decades of oblivion.

In order to wear jeans with a high fit, you need to be the owner of a thin waist. Otherwise, the pants will only emphasize the flaws of the figure, since in such a model the entire emphasis is shifted to the top of the jeans. Jeans with a high fit and do not fit full girls, although if you have a good figure with minor flaws, they will fix them.

Mid-rise jeans are the most versatile. They are suitable for any clothing, and for any type of figure. That is why most designers prefer this particular neutral landing option.

But a low landing is something that most girls should avoid. The waist of low-rise pants is placed in the hips, so if you have problems with your figure in the abdomen, they will be doubly noticeable in such jeans. In addition, in them it is almost impossible to actively move and sit, without showing everyone around their underwear and body.

Buy jeans with a low fit is recommended only for slim girls with a flexible figure. They can also be a real find for those with a disproportionately short body. Such a style will visually stretch it due to the low location of the belt of trousers.

To size

In order to almost correctly find jeans of your size, you need to measure the length of one of the legs, the width of the jeans in the hips, the knees and waist, as well as the height of the fit. To understand, suit you jeans or not, enough and the width of the pants in the belt.

You can measure this parameter even at home, using a centimeter. You can measure either the entire belt or one of the sides, and then multiply the resulting figure by two. On jeans, this value is denoted by the English letter W (from the English "waist", which translates as "waist"). Next to this letter is the size (usually in inches) of the belt. For example, the W 34 means that the belt size is 34 inches (and one inch is 2.54 cm).

However, this figure is not always accurate. This is due to the fact that some jeans are conceived as more tight to the body, others - as more loose. But when worn, the material is stretched. But jeans still fit on the figure, overcoming a small difference of 1-1.5 inches. In any case, you can always fix the jeans with a belt.

But such size designations are used only by companies that specialize in jeans. Much more often you can find standard European (S, L, XL) or American (42, 44, 50) sizes. Orientation in them is easy, especially if you have worn jeans with similar size designations before. And if not, then you can always use the size table.

How to choose the length

The length of the trousers plays an equally important role in the choice of jeans than the width at the waist. This parameter is measured from the inguinal suture and directly to the very edge of the leg. On the label, the length of the jeans is indicated by the letter L. The labels also bear a special note if they are intended for very tall girls.

Choosing jeans, you should consider what shoes you most often plan to wear them. It is desirable to try on jeans in it.

After all, under the heel or thick sole you need to add a few extra centimeters to the length indicated on the label so that the legs of the leg cover the shoes a little. It is believed that the most correct option is when the jeans reach the middle of the heel of your shoes or boots.

Tall girls, so as not to miscalculate, you can buy pants with a raw bottom. They can be adjusted for themselves at home. Stylish look will be a bow with jeans with rolled trousers, in combination with light ballet shoes or stylish sneakers.

But for low girls with a choice of the desired length there are more problems. They should take into account that cropped trousers and jeans with rolled trousers will visually make them lower, if you do not complement the image with high-heeled shoes. It is also believed that too tight skinny also attract attention to low growth. Therefore, the ideal option for short girls would be jeans that fit exactly on the figure.

Tips for choosing quality and good jeans

Arguing about how to choose the most suitable jeans, you can not ignore the issue of quality. Made of good material, jeans will not fade, stretch and wear out quickly. But how to determine that it is just high-quality jeans, and not a cheap fake made from stretch that will lose its presentation at the very first wash?

First of all, pay attention to the buttons and, if they are available, on the riveting. On their reverse side must be the stamp of the manufacturer. This is what distinguishes good brand jeans. Also, large manufacturers often “mark” their product with a corporate line on the back pockets. And, finally, the last tip - lightning, which according to the standard is made of durable metal, and her dog is equipped with a double lock.
