The Best Jeans for Every Body

Here’s how to pick ’em…

The perfect pair of jeans can make you feel taller, thinner, and more importantly, more confident. We did the legwork and found the right jeans for every butt and budget.

If you’ve got it, flaunt it, right? So if you were blessed with long legs, don’t cut yourself short with capris. Show off your stems with tailored, trouser-style jeans like a boot-cut or flared style.

If, on the other hand, height is what you’re lacking, stick with skinnies. Tapered legs elongate your frame and a mid-rise makes legs look as though they start higher. Also opt for a crop—jeans that bunch up at the bottom will make you look shorter.

If you’re a Skinny Minnie, faded denim can add curves in all the right places. Slouchy chic boyfriend jeans, especially with a chunky rolled-up cuff, add width where you want it. But your best bet is to go high-waisted. Suddenly, baby got back.

If you have an hourglass figure à la J-Lo, the key is to create balance. Straight cuts even out natural curves and indigo or black rinses are flattering. Try “jeggings” on for size; the high stretch content results in a slim fit and the faux pockets eliminate bulkiness.
