Fashionable jeans are considered one of the most common and comfortable wardrobe items today. Almost every woman has them, because with these clothes you can create many different looks. Some people replenish their wardrobe with another pair with the arrival of a new season or the release of a new collection, but at the same time they do not think about whether a fashionable new thing suits them and whether it fits correctly.
Let's try to understand the secrets of proper fit and find out why jeans fold in the most inappropriate places?
Correct fit of jeans - what is it like?
Two important rules to follow when adding a pair of jeans to your wardrobe are to take into account the type, strengths and weaknesses of your figure and choose the size wisely. Without taking these parameters into account, jeans will not fit well, namely, they will bunch up at the knees, at the back, in the groin, sag, etc. Let's see what popular jeans models are suitable for owners of different body types:
- Tight or skinny. This model lengthens the legs and emphasizes the hips. Suitable for triangle, rectangle and hourglass body types.
- Semi-loose or classic. They hide extra pounds and do not draw attention to “problem” areas - a full tummy, waist, hips. This is a good choice for ladies with a triangle figure - regular and inverted, hourglass, circle. Women with a rectangle figure should not choose this model.
- Spacious or boyfriends. They hide leg imperfections, emphasize the waist, and disguise narrow hips. Bad choice for "triangle" and "circle".
- High waisted. They make the legs visually longer, “narrow” the waist, mask folds in this area, but at the same time reduce height. Suitable for rectangle, hourglass and circle. Wrong choice for triangle.
- With a classic waist. They hide folds in this area, while making the waist “inexpressive”. Ladies with a rectangle and inverted triangle body type should not choose these jeans.
- Low waist. They lengthen the torso and accentuate the waist area. Disadvantages: emphasize flaws in the abdominal area, shorten the legs. Not suitable for circle and triangle shapes.
- Tapered. Makes the hips more rounded. Not suitable for ladies with curvy figures.
- Straight cut bottom leg. Masks leg imperfections. Suitable for ladies with almost any figure, except for the “inverted triangle” type.
- Knee flare. Reduces the volume of the upper torso, making the figure proportional. Not suitable for short people.
- Flare from the hip. Conceals leg imperfections. The best option for ladies with curvy figures. Not suitable for "rectangle" and "triangle".
If you don't know what body type you have, here's a little cheat sheet to help:
- the chest and hips are equal in volume, and the waist is “noticeably” smaller - it’s an “hourglass”;
- with approximately the same chest and hips and an undefined waist, the figure type is called “rectangle”;
- if the chest is noticeably smaller in volume than the hips, and the waist is pronounced, then these are signs of a “triangle” or “pear” figure;
- accordingly, with an “inverted triangle” the opposite is true.
- if the parameters under consideration - chest, waist, hips - are approximately the same in volume, then this is the “circle” type.
Equally important when choosing a pair of jeans is to choose the right size. A small one will lead to the fact that when fastening the fly, the sides and belly will simply “fall over” the edge of the clothing, a large one will “threaten” with the appearance of folds in the groin or under the buttocks, as well as the so-called “accordion” at the bottom of the legs.
Why jeans wrinkle or how an incorrect fit can ruin your look
Whole volumes have been written about how to choose perfectly fitting jeans, but the purpose of this material is to dwell in more detail on why folds or the so-called “accordion” appear, and what to do to avoid this annoying nuisance, which can ruin even a correctly chosen look . As already mentioned, the main reason is the wrong size.
It would seem that what the problem is is to choose jeans in accordance with your “dimensions”. But not everything is so obvious - when choosing a model “according to your figure”, you can encounter so-called pitfalls, and they are hidden in the composition of the fabric.
Imagine the situation: you try on jeans - they fit perfectly, go to the checkout in delight, pay for your purchase and go home in a good mood, and a few days later you discover that they are worn out, begin to sag and gather folds in unnecessary places - in the groin, under the buttocks, on my knees.Why is this happening?
A “fatal” mistake is not to pay attention to the fabric composition indicated by the manufacturer on the clothing label. In our case, the main thing is to find out how much elastic thread is present in the jeans. This element may be designated Elastane (elastane), Spandex or Lycra. Typically, it is present in amounts from 1 to 4%. Even if it is minimal, you should choose a model that is half a size smaller - a more fitting one. Otherwise, the clothes are guaranteed to wear out within a few days.
Another mistake is trouser legs that are too long. Of course, it is not always possible to choose the length according to your height, but wearing jeans, whether skinny or boyfriend, gathered at the ankles in an unaesthetic accordion is bad form. In this case, cutting your jeans is not always the best and certainly not the only solution. Roll up your trouser legs, especially since cuffs are in trend today. This technique helps to make the image a little careless and more “relaxed”.
Reference. When making lapels, you should remember that this technique makes the leg visually shorter. If this doesn't scare you, then feel free to use it. You can slightly “level out” the “shortening” effect by wearing shoes with heels.
Another significant point that should definitely be taken into account when purchasing is lAny pair of jeans will last a long time, highlight advantages, hide flaws, do not stretch, do not wrinkle, etc., if they are made from high-quality fabric. Good material does not fade, does not shrink after washing, and does not deform. And remember that a good fit of jeans is the absence of pronounced creases. They can “wrinkle” slightly only in the area of the pockets and on the ankles.
