Plus size jeans are a must for the plus size woman's wardrobe. The right pair of jeans can slim a woman as well as feel comfortable enough for everyday wear. You should purchase at least two or three pairs of plus size jeans for your wardrobe.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Locate a store that sells plus size jeans. Avenue and Torrid are two stores that you are likely to find in your local mall that sells plus size clothing.
Step2
Order your plus size jeans online. For a larger selection, pick out plus size denim from online retailers, such as Kiyonna and Silhouettes.
Step3
Choose a boot leg cut. Boot leg jeans are more form flattering and won't make your legs look bulky like flare jeans.
Step4
Find a jean blend with spandex. Jeans that are manufactured partially from spandex will be stretchier and more comfortable.
Step5
Pick jeans with patch pockets in the back. These types of pockets will create a slimmer look and flatter the rear.
Step6
Wear jeans with a longer hem. The longer that the jeans are, the longer your legs will look. The hem of your jeans should cover at least half of your shoe's heel.

Tips & Warnings

  • Jeans that sit below the waist will be more comfortable for plus size women. The jeans should not ride too low or else you'll be falling out of the jeans.
  • To create an even more slimming look, you should consider wearing plus size jeans in darker denim colors.
  • Avoid wide leg and flare jeans in plus sizes. These make a woman appear larger.
