BREAKING DOWN
THE TRENDY AND
TRICKY FRESH
CROP OF FALL
JEANS, ONE PAIR
AT A TIME.
The rise should
always zip (or
button) flat. If it
does bunch up
or pull, try an
alternate cut.
Shallow
pockets are
key. Too much
fabric adds
unwelcome
volume.
Anatomy of
DENIM
A skinny cut
will make legs
look longer
and leaner but
(warning!) will
also highlight
hips and
thighs. Look
for a snug
style that isn’t
skin-tight.
Flared jeans
help balance
out a curvier
shape. Extreme
or subtle, the
flare should
start right
below the knee
to offset the
widest part of
the thigh.
Colored denim is
still hot! Choose
a primary hue
(see p. 12) to nail
two trends at once.
