Petite: You major focus should be to elongate your body. Choose jeans that are fitted. Jeans with a little stretch in them will be perfect. Stay away from wide leged jeans because they will not improve your proportion. Also stay away from short or a medium waisted jean. Low rise and hip huggers are okay only if they don’t make your legs look short. On the other end of the spectrum, steer away from high waisted jeans because they will only make you look shorter than you are. To give your legs an even longer appearance have the hem line hit the floor and wear heels.
Curvy Lower Body: To make your hips appear smaller stick to hip-huggers and low rise jeans. Darker jeans will help minimize your lower half and a boot cut, flared leg, or wide leg will proportion your figure. The key for jeans to look the best is to have a long hem line. Your hemline should at least hit the bottom of your ankle and if you plan on wearing heels the hem line should hit the floor when standing flat footed. Seven jeans provide a great fit.
Tall and Slender: If you are tall and slender your goal is to give the illusion of curves. To give the illusion of curves wear cigarette jeans or tapered jeans. Because they are closer to the calves they will make your hips look wider and give the illusion of curves. Your goal is to stay away from anything too tight. Tight jeans will make your legs look even skinnier. Also stay away from anything too loose because it will not make your appearance look proportional. Hip-huggers and relaxed fit jeans are acceptable. Boot-cut and slight flares will also create the illusion of curves.
Full Rounded Body: To hide your middle portion, choose a jean that is higher waisted. A pair of relaxed, medium-waist jeans with straight legs is perfect for your figure. You also want jeans that follow the shape of your body but do not hit every curve. Also stay away from jeans with too much stretch and is fitted from waist to leg. These will not be flattering for your body type. If you are trying to camouflage your middle section stay away from jeans that that tie, have pleats or an elastic waistband, or are decorated in front. These will only draw attention to your belly.
Big Bottom: If you have a bigger bottom, watch out for pockets! Pockets that are small, too high or close together, or decorated can make a large bottom look even bigger. Also, choosing jeans that have no pockets at all will draw attention to that area. The best jeans for you will be those that have wide, long pockets that rest wide and low on your bottom. Low rise jeans with a flared leg will give you the illusion of a smaller behind and balance out your shape.
