Jeans are a universal clothing option, they come in a wide range of styles, models, and colors. Every lady's wardrobe includes stylish denim pants, which are great for creating casual, urban, and extravagant looks. Slim jeans, tapered at the hips and looser from the knees to the ankles, are very popular among the fair sex. The model emphasizes the advantages of the figure, and skillfully compensates for some features of the physique.
What is this?
Slim skinny jeans first appeared on the fashion catwalk in 2004. The stylish product was presented by the Swedish brand Cheap Monday, and the new item was demonstrated by the British supermodel Kate Moss, which caused a wide demand for tight pants. Comfortable and beautiful slim jeans are tapered models. The upper part is made in a classic five-pocket layout. A characteristic feature that distinguishes slim from skinny (the styles are similar, they are often confused) is a tight fit at the waist and hips, looser from the knee, a tapered part in the ankle area. Slims are sewn from a special fabric with a dense texture, so the jeans have advantageous advantages:
- They expressively emphasize the slimness of the figure;
- Visually lengthens the legs without restricting movement;
- They are distinguished by a good layout with the top and shoes;
- Grace, sophistication, loose fit at the calves;
- They hide figure flaws and balance height.
Slim jeans are designed for slender girls and women, but if chosen correctly, the pants look good on ladies with more curvy shapes. Tapered legs visually lengthen the legs, make the figure more proportional, and emphasize the waistline. Unlike skinny, the fabric does not fit the legs so tightly, so wearing slim jeans is convenient and comfortable.
If the figure in the waist area is not ideal, a top (blouse, sweatshirt, T-shirt) up to the middle of the thigh helps to disguise the flaws of the physique. Ladies of short stature and women who cannot boast of a thin waist should avoid the combination of slim and crop tops.
How should you sit?
When choosing stylish skinny pants, you need to pay attention not only to the fashionable cut, but also to the type of fit. Slim jeans fit perfectly on a lady with a slim figure. To choose the perfect pair of skinny jeans, you need to consider the important characteristics of the cut:
- Fit – determines the fit of the figure from the waist to the knee. The hip length fit characterizes how wide or narrow the slim fit jeans will be;
- Cut leg fit – shows what the jeans will be like from the knee to the shin. In slim models, the Cut leg fit is less tight than in skinny, the tapered bottom emphasizes the graceful ankles;
- Rise waistline shows the height of the top of the pants. There are ultra-low, low (not relevant), medium (suitable for everyone), high and high waist.
Slim fit women's jeans are very popular among ladies - narrowly cut or tight pants (or fitted cut). They fit tightly to the body at the waist, and sit more freely at the ankles and calves. Elastic stretch is added to the material from which slim fits are sewn, so the jeans do not restrict movement and are very comfortable to wear.
When choosing low-rise models, you need to have an ideal build. In tight slims, extra centimeters at the waist will make the figure visually heavy and disproportionate. Jeans with a high waist and high rise help compensate for the shortcomings of the physique.
What to wear with
Designers and fashion designers suggest including skinny pants in the wardrobe not only for fragile girls, but also for representatives of the stronger sex. Men's slim jeans favorably emphasize the advantages of the physique, allow you to create fashionable images, and go well with different clothes and shoes. If a man is not inclined to radical decisions and is not ready to wear skinny jeans, you can opt for slim fit jeans. This silhouette is closer to classic models of pants, gives the figure a slender, sporty look. Some manufacturers produce super slim jeans for men, which can be called an intermediate option between Slim and Skinny. What to wear slims with for men:
- Shirts tucked in or worn loose;
- Classic jackets, tight-fitting T-shirts;
- Sports shirts, polo shirts;
- Elegant blazers, cardigans;
- Denim or leather jackets, coats;
- Shoes – Derby shoes, boots, sneakers.
The combination of a loose or oversized top with slim pants does not look good on a man – it disrupts the proportions of the figure. You can dilute a business look with classic fitted and semi-fitted shirts with stylish accessories - ties, cufflinks. Men's tight trousers with military-style pea coats look spectacular.
Women have access to a wide variety of combinations of skinny pants with tops and shoes. Before choosing wardrobe items, you need to consider what type of women's slim jeans are - the photo shows how the models differ. Depending on the type of slims, all elements of the image are selected:
- Jeggings are a middle ground between leggings and jeans, they fit the figure completely and have an elastic waistband that stretches well. They go well with long T-shirts, tank tops, tunic sweaters, loose oversized tops, and high-heeled shoes.
- Slims and semi-slims are classic narrow pants that fit tightly around the waist and hips, and are looser around the calf. They allow you to create interesting looks for all occasions. This means that slim jeans look good with different tops: crop tops, oversized sweaters, jackets, blazers, sweatshirts, and jumpers;
- Slims with a drawstring are models of a special cut for ladies with curvy shapes. Jeans correct the figure, have a high waist. Casually tucked shirts, blouses, blazers, T-shirts are best suited to such pants. Shoes - ballet flats, sneakers, boots, shoes, sandals with high heels.
Any look should show the compatibility of the ensemble. If a crop top is chosen, then high-waisted jeans will suit such a cropped T-shirt. To disguise minor figure flaws, you can make the top looser and choose slim jeggings. The elements of a fashionable look are selected taking into account the image that should turn out. If a business style is chosen - neutral slims and a strict blouse / shirt, an outfit for an evening party - bright jeans and a shiny blazer, crop top, casual look - skinny pants, sports shoes. You can experiment with Slim models, choosing the most advantageous combinations of top, bottom, shoes and accessories.
