What are wide leg jeans?

These flared jeans, wide from the hips to the ankles, have become the ultimate must have for a perfect casual chic look. They are everywhere, and every fashion lover is obsessed with this comfortable vintage style.

Wide leg jeans have a fitted waist and gradually widen all the way down to the feet. This denim piece stands out with its retro vibe inspired by the 1970s.

They combine comfort and style thanks to their wide cut, offering great freedom of movement so you can feel comfortable all day long.

Good news: they are extremely versatile and suit both casual and elegant outfits !

Wide leg jeans and body types

Although wide leg jeans are especially flattering for women with wider hips, they suit almost every body type. Whether you are petite, tall, slim or curvy, wide leg jeans will enhance your figure.

Wide leg jeans for petite women

Choose high waisted wide leg jeans for a guaranteed success. To avoid overwhelming your silhouette, wear heels or platform shoes. This is the best trick to elongate your silhouette and create the illusion of endless legs !

Wide leg jeans for tall women

Wide leg jeans are the perfect fit for your silhouette and your long legs. Make sure the length of your favourite pair is well adjusted at the bottom to flatter your look. Since you are tall, you can wear them with any type of shoe, with or without heels.

Wide leg jeans for curvy women

If you have a curvy figure, wide leg jeans beautifully highlight your pin up silhouette. Choose them in a slightly stretchy fabric for a shaping effect and a defined waist. Dark washes such as raw blue or black are especially flattering. Avoid models with excessive details, patterns or rips as they may visually widen your figure.

Tips for wearing wide leg jeans properly

To avoid weighing down or unbalancing your silhouette with wide leg jeans, here are a few tips:

Avoid tops that are too long or too loose, as they can make your silhouette appear shorter.
Choose short tops or tuck your top into your jeans to elongate your figure.
Pay attention to the length of your wide leg jeans: they should be neither too long nor too short.
