Top Tips - Jeans
The colour of your denim is called the wash:
• Faded washes are more casual
• Dark washes are the most slimming
• Distressed washes with horizontal whiskering detail, add width
• But with vertical detail…adds length
Where the waist of Jeans sit, is called the rise:
• High-rise sit at your belly – great if you’re tall & lean
• Medium-rise sit a couple of inches below it – that’s the most flattering
• While Low-rise sit really low on the waist – so watch out for that muffin!
The shape of the jean leg is called the cut:
• Wide-legs are the perfect chill out jean – but watch out if you’re very small or very big
• Flares are slimming and flatter the bum
• Bootcuts balance heavy thighs
• Skinny’s are hot right now – but avoid them if you’re chunky, they’ll do you no favours
The bottom line on pockets – size does matter:
• Large pockets confine your bum & make it appear small
• While small pockets have the opposite effect –your bum will look bigger
