Finding the perfect pair of denim jeans: is there a greater fashion challenge?
The right cut, colour and fit can see you through almost any social situation, from weekends spent in your local’s beer garden and family BBQs to work events where the dress code calls for smart casual.
There are millions of pairs out there that could be The One, but thankfully you can whittle down the selection according to your proportions. If you fall outside the ‘regular’ proportions set by the fashion industry - curvy, petite, or tall - there are specific collections to ensure you get the best fit.
With a longer leg, full length jeans won’t be left grazing your calves when they should fall to the ankle. Admittedly, while some skinny cuts can just about be styled out, it’s simply not possible to do the same with too-short legs on a pair of bootcut or flared jeans.
Shopping for jeans that’ll fit tall women is a far cry from the ease with which most men shop for trousers. They go by waist and inseam alone, and knowing those two simple measurements mean most don’t even have to try them on to ensure a perfect fit.
Thankfully there are a number of brands catering for the taller woman - which the fashion industry defines as anyone over 5”8.
We’ve found the best jeans options for those blessed with extra height to help making shopping for your next pair less of a headache.
