Answer: Dear Nadia,

Every woman is constantly searching for the perfect pair of jeans. Here is The Australian Women’s Weekly’s easy guide to help you find the perfect pair of jeans.

The perfect jeans to flatter your bottom:

• A pair of straight-leg jeans in a rigid denim will accentuate your curves without exaggerating them. E.g. Sussan jeans 1300 363 351 or Carla Zampatti jeans (02) 9264-8244.
• Avoid a tight tapered fit with small pockets. This will make your bottom appear larger.

The perfect jeans to add curves:

• A pair of skinny leg tapered jeans with a high waist are perfect for creating shape. Look for denim that has a little stretch to skim over and emphasize curves. (Stretch denim is often more comfortable too!). e.g. Mavi (02) 9699 9700 or Marcs jeans1800 688 290.
• Avoid baggy boyfriend style jeans. These may make you look shapeless.

The perfect jeans to make you look taller:

• A pair of boot cut jeans will help you appear taller. Make sure that the jeans are slim through the thigh to create a long, lean silhouette. Eg: Witchery 1800 640 249 or French Connection 1800 006 655.
• Avoid baggy or cropped jeans, these will only may you look stocky.

The perfect jeans to make you look slimmer:

• Want to look 5kgs lighter? With the right pair of jeans it is possible. Our pick? The trouser cut.
• The wide trouser leg jean with drape from the waist to the ankle, hiding hips and thighs. A darker washed denim will further accentuate this effect. Eg: Jeans West 1800 809 889 and Maggie T 1800 678 189.
• Avoid skinny leg jeans.
