On the Rise
Call it a backlash to the skinny jeans, but wide-legged jeans are definitely on the rise. On the plus side, those wide legs look terrific with heels and make your legs look a mile long. Even short women can look lean wearing this look, as long as they pick the right pair. Here’s a look at three ways to wear wide-legged jeans.
• If you want something in a lighter fabric for summer, look for fabrics such as linen combined with cotton. Try Juicy Couture’s Wide-Legged Jeans with a hint of linen in them to make them lightweight for the summer.
• If you want to slenderize your hips, look for diagonal-slashed pockets to give the appearance of slimmer hips. Try Anlo Shon’s Denim Trousers. The 11-inch wide legs look perfect with high heels.
• If you want to tuck in your tummy, look for wide-legged jeans with a hint of Lycra. Try Hudson Jean’s Wide Leg Stretch Jeans.
