The Best Jeans for Pear Shaped Women
I am, admittedly, a little obsessed with denim. Blame it on being a California girl, or living in SoCal during the rise of the designer denim craze-- I landed in LA the year 7 For All Mankind debuted. I currently have a collection that makes my closet look kind of like a denim museum and I actually find the process of spending hours trying on new denim styles fun. I know, it's sick. I also find myself spending a lot of time talking to other women about their denim issues. By far, the most exasperated women are those who are trying to find the best jeans for pear shaped bodies.
Are you pear shaped? If you are, you probably already know it. But, if you are on the fence about your pear shaped status, here's the basic way to tell. If it seems like your waist and your hips/thighs belong to two different people, then you are probably pear shaped. Being pear shaped knows no size constraint. Some pear shaped women are plus size, others are skinny little petite things. Alicia Keys and Kim Kardashian are both examples of pear shaped women. Being pear shaped is just silly shorthand for women who have waists that are significantly smaller in proportion to their hips and thighs. The chief denim complaint among pear shaped women: the dreaded waist gap. Luckily, denim makers are waking up to the plight of the pear shaped woman and creating jeans that are made just for them.
