How to Get a Perfect-Fitting Pair of Jeans

Ah, the perfect fit of jeans. Every woman wants to own perfect fitting pair of jeans, but actually finding them may seem like finding a needle in a haystack. Yet once you do, it’s magical.

5 Tips to Find the Perfect skinny Fit of Jeans

The right style of jeans are a staple in most women’s wardrobes, but when it comes to finding a perfect fit to jeans, knowing where to start can be a bit confusing. After all, there are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of jeans manufacturers. Maybe low-rise jeans works on your friends, your sister or your daughter but straight leg jeans are a better for for your body shape. So how can you find your best jeans pair without tearing your hair out? Follow these 5 steps and you’ll discover how easy getting the perfect pair of jeans can be.

1. Assess

Take note of your body shape. Are you a little curvy, or a lot curvy? Do you have long lets? Are you petite? Do you have a little extra around the middle? Without any judgment, taking note of your shape will help you to understand exactly what your needs are, helping you to know where to start.

Hidden Features

Many brands have a wide array of styles designed for different needs. With everything from built-in tummy control panels, butt-lifting inserts, different rises and innovative fabrics that can make you look (and feel) pounds thinner, it’s pretty certain there is a solution for your needs.

 

2. Do Your Homework 

No, it may not be the fun part, but taking time to do a little research will help you eliminate those brands and styles that are not right, and zero in on the pair that will fit you like a glove. Ask friends who have a similar shape as you for recommendations. Get online. Take a social media poll. Become familiar with brands and styles and the differences in how they fit. Whatever it takes to find what you need!

Do Your Research

Go online before you shop. There are resources designed to help you find brands, cuts and styles that are right for you. But don’t stop there. Full-service boutiques can be your best asset, with personal shoppers and stylists dedicated to helping you get the right cut and the right size.

 

3. Fit 

Getting the right fit is key. These days jeans are not an inexpensive purchase, and you want to be sure to get your money’s worth. You will not wear an uncomfortable pair of jeans for long, so don’t even think about tolerating something that is so-so. Go for amazing! No gapping at the waist, riding up in the rise or bagginess in the thighs. If your skinny jean is too tight in the calf, skip it. Keep trying on until you get it right. If you come close to perfect but need a little help, a great tailor can work wonders. And by all means, don’t buy a pair that gives you a muffin top! Find a rise that is slimming and keeps everything in place.

Do These Jeans Pass The Test?

When trying on your jeans, sit, stand, squat and move around to be sure they move with you and don’t bind. Look at the rear view. Ask about shrinkage. And when you find the pair that fits you like a glove, buy two!

4. Silhouette

 Knowing what silhouette is right for you is essential. Your goal is to create balance and the truth is one style does not fit all. Just because a particular style is trendy does NOT mean it’s right for you. Don’t be afraid to try new styles, however, if it’s not right don’t give in.

Skinny jeans have been the most popular choice, but are not always right for everyone. If you want to wear skinny jeans but are a bit curvy, wear a longer top or jacket that comes below hips, or wear your skinny jeans with boots to create balance. If you’re fuller through the hips and/or the bust, a bootcut will be a better style to balance you out. Trouser jeans can work well on many body types. Steer clear of full-on flares if you’re above a ‘certain age’ as they are better for the younger set.

If you’re fuller through the booty, keep your pockets plain and simple. If you’d like to amp up that area, choose pockets with embellishments to make you appear fuller. Choose back pockets that are in proportion with your bum for best effect.

5. Style 

The style of your jeans makes a statement, so be clear they are right for you. If you’re buying a great pair of go-to investment jeans, opt for a dark wash classic cut that will last you for years to come. Once you have those in your wardrobe, you have room to play around with trendier styles, including distressing, different washes, decorative stitching or embellishments. With everything from pull-on to textured and distressed denim, anything goes. Just make sure the look is in line with your own personal style.

There you have it. The perfect pair of jeans in 5 easy steps. While it may not feel so easy when you’re in the fitting room, taking the time to go through each of these steps can help ensure that you get the right pair of jeans. And once you do, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without them.
