Found: In this denim, even women who are not taller than 1.80 m cut a good figure.
The problem is as old as the jeans themselves: if they sit up, the length at the bottom isn’t right. For small women, reaching for scissors or going to the tailor has long since become routine. With a few tricks he can save in the future.
Good preparation is the be-all and end-all when buying trousers: before you start browsing clothing stores or online shops, it is helpful to know your measurements. This means not only the size, but also the inner leg length. To determine this, it is best to measure an existing, well-fitting pair of jeans from the crotch to the hem. Alternatively, measurements can also be taken directly on the body.
Find the right pair of jeans – that’s how it works
Then the search begins. The easiest way is to filter out so-called “petite” collections. They are specially designed for smaller women and can be viewed with just a few mouse clicks.
Other labels work with width and length information separated by a slash. Measured in inches, the first number refers to the waist size and the second to the leg length. The smaller the back number, the shorter the jeans.
If your favorite brand doesn’t offer such designs, you can switch to a cropped or ankle model. A regular 7/8 jean will function as a long one on shorter legs.
Two is Better
If you want to be particularly trendy this season, choose jeans with a dark wash and combine them with the matching top for a full-body denim look. As seen at Dior, Saint Laurent or Emporio Armani.
