Hints for Choosing the Ideal Pair of Plus Size Jeans

Supplying the gold miners over a hundred years ago, Levi Strauss began their wholesale business by making blue jeans that were tough and hard to wear out. Now blue jeans have become the world's most popular piece of clothing because of their comfort and adaptability.

Plus-sized people agree that shopping can be extremely difficult. Finding a stylish yet comfortable pair of jeans is a rarity. The majority of jeans either hug your legs too tightly or cut into the waist or stomach. Locating the right pair of jeans for your body type can add the illusion of longer legs and smaller hips.

Since many plus size jeans are now made from a type of material that stretches, or gives a bit, the first thing to consider when buying a pair of jeans is their stretch. This fabric, made from a combination of cotton, polyester, and spandex, stretches only when and where you need it, providing ultimate comfort while improving your figure. The longer you wear stretch jeans throughout the day, the more they will stretch and keep you comfortable.

The next thing to look for in plus size jeans is the "mid-rise" qualities. Many of the jeans available today are "low-rise" jeans and look great if you have no curves. Individuals who are plus size should avoid low-rise clothing because they do not compensate for larger waists, hips or thighs. Low-cut jeans will push belly fat above the waist band and emphasize the midriff area. Most plus size people find low-rise jeans very uncomfortable to wear.

Classic cut jeans (called mid-rise cut jeans) are much more appealing and attractive and will help you stay stylish while allowing you to stay covered and comfortable. Classic cut jeans sit just below the waist and have a straight leg from the hip all the way down to the floor. This will give a plus size woman's body a long, lean look.

Do not buy plus size jeans with elaborate designs such as embroidery, fancy stitches, or severe fading. You want to get solid, dark wash jeans that will last and will go well with any outfit you want to wear.

A wider pant leg will balance out a body, therefore it is best worn by individuals who are plus size. A classic five-pocket design in a dark shade works best.

Jeans can be worn for everyday, or for a night on the town. They go with a variety of shoe-types. They come in a plethora of colors and fabrics. Plus sized people have so many varieties to choose from.

When you go shopping for plus size clothing and jeans, find one with high quality stretch fabric. If you find one pair of jeans that fit and look perfect on you, buy another pair just like it. A good pair of plus size jeans can work wonders for you.
