When we talk about the most controversial style of jeans, we clearly mean the skinny fit.
Unlike many other styles, with skinny jeans there’s no middle ground: you either hate them or love them.
A common feeling among women is that skinny jeans can be a bit of a hassle. The rough, stiff denim can make it tough to move freely, and for some body types, they're not always the most flattering option. Their snug, constricting feeling can make you think twice about choosing this style.
However, when you wear the right pair, you understand why skinny jeans are not only a viable option but an everyday wear choice.
Denim that hugs your body in the right places, lets you move comfortably and breathe freely with supreme softness, and flatters you with every single outfit you wear are what Mott & Bow’s skinny jeans for women are made for.
The Essential Guide to Skinny Jeans for Women
Before you pick your first pair of Mott & Bow skinny jeans, it’s important to know the difference between high, mid, and low rise fits, so you can wear the type that flatters your body type the most.
High-Rise Skinny Jeans for Women
This kind of jeans sits above the belly button and leaves a nice gap at the end of the hem, which works wonders for footwear—heels and loafers in particular. Fitted through the hips, thighs, and legs, this style can have a slimming effect on your body.
Additionally, their rise covers the entire stomach region and gives the illusion of a longer and leaner torso, while hiding any problem areas.
If you’re looking to give the impression of a slimmer figure, you should strongly consider grabbing a pair of our high-rise skinny jeans.
Mid-Rise Skinny Jeans for Women
Mid-rise jeans sit just below the belly button and tend to extend all the way down to the ankle. Their amazing versatility is what makes women go for this fit, since you can easily dress them up with heels and a blouse, or keep it casual with sneakers and a tee.
Like their higher counterpart, mid-rise skinny jeans are also fitted through the hips, thighs, and legs.
They are particularly well-suited for women with petite, hourglass, and athletic body types. This is because mid-rise skinny jeans have the ability to elongate the legs, accentuate muscle definition without compromising proportion, and exude a sensually feminine appearance.
Low-Rise Skinny Jeans for Women
This kind of jeans sits 1-3” below the waistline, which gives them an urban vibe. Some women prefer this style when trying to highlight their curvy figures.
This style is also ideal for women who want to show off their abs area for a bolder look.
Whether you choose high, mid or low rise skinny jeans, when you get them at Mott & Bow, you get the most premium, flattering, luxurious feeling denim on the market.
