Get suggestions on what jeans to buy for your plus-size body.
Jeans for a Pear Body Type
You'd be amazed at what you can find to make the most of your pear shape. No matter what your age, try to push yourself to wear slightly younger styles. Your body type probably won't be flattered by high-waisted, shapeless jeans, so try some like the ones listed below. Flatter that defined waist and trim your derriere easily with a variety of selections from deep dark denim to wide-legged looks.
Hot Jeans for Apple Body Types
"Apple" body types need to choose jeans wisely. Not all jeans will have the width at the midsection that you need for comfort, with slimmer legs and hips. Plus-size jeans can seem big all over, but with a little luck, you can wear these particular pairs with ease.
Jeans for Athletic Body Types
"Athletic" body types can be tricky. You may have slim hips, or you could have substantial, muscular thighs and a behind to match. No matter what your athletic shape, I've found a pair of jeans to suit you.
