Your Denim Guide: Choosing the Right Style for You!

Let’s talk denim, specifically jeans. We love this sturdy fabric for its ability to withstand wear and tear, making it a long-lasting garment.

As you may know, shopping for denim jeans can be exhausting. Too much stretch, not enough, too short or too long… Fear not because we’ve done the hard work for you, finding jeans with flattering silhouettes and comfortable fits.

A proper fit depends on accurate measurements (waist, hip, inseam), so here’s your guide to finding your perfect denim jeans.

Choose your silhouette. There are 6.

1. Skinny: Form-fitting from waist to ankle.
2. Straight: Consistent width from hip to hem.
3. Tapered: Narrows from the thigh to the ankle.
4. Wide-Leg: Relaxed through the entire leg, offering volume and a modern shape.
5. Bootcut/Flare: Slim through the hips and thighs, flaring out from the knee.
6. Relaxed: Looser through the hips and thighs with a higher rise for comfort.

Next, you’ll need to choose your rise. The rise determines how high the jeans sit on your torso. You can choose from: low, mid and high rise.

Low-Rise: Sits low on the hips for a laid-back look.

Mid-Rise: Sits just below the belly button, offering a balanced and comfortable fit.

High-Rise: Sits at or above the belly button, great for defining the waist.

And lastly, choose your inseam. This depends on how tall you are and where you want your hem to be.

Now that you’ve covered the basics, you can choose from features like wash, fabric stretch and garment details.
