jeans to make you look longer?

To make yourself look longer, leaner, and/or taller which style jeans and which wash do you prefer?

Thanks

Update:

i don't really like skinny jeans - so then would you reccomend boot cut?

    In most cases skinny jeans do not make you look longer because they hug your legs and sort of expand them. What you would want are good straight jeans that hit right at your waist (if you wear them lower it actually makes your legs look shorter) and then the jeans should end a little below the ankle. This works really well because with the little more jean at the top and the little more at the bottom, it really makes your legs look longer.

    The wash color is up to you.

    Hope I could help.

    It all depends on your body type. If you already have long legs and want to make them look longer you can wear short shorts. But if you either only want jeans or are not tall already wear some skinny jeans (make sure they are not too tight) and the darker the wash the more skinny you look which creates the illusion that you are taller (especially black jeans.) If you still want to look even taller wear some cute wedges with the outfit and you are good to go!

    Hope this helps!

    Get black jeans or dark wash, but if you do dont get the washes that have that sandpaper effect kind of thing. Like on the top and bottom of the jean its dark wash but the front of knee is another shade. Don't get those, solid colors elongate the body.

    Skinny, or straight legged jeans. (There is a difference between these two) Skinny legs are tight around your angles and straight legged dont flare but do give your ankles a little moving room. And make sure it is a dark wash!

  • Dark wash skinny jeans are the best at making you look long and lean, try and avoid capris, idk if you wear short shorts, but the ugly ones with the flower pockets coming out also make you look taller

    Yeah bootcut jeans are good too,I like em better than skinny

    i love a skinny pair but not superr skinny tight ones but yes skinny jeans because of the way to bottom goes and they look so good with heels i like medium to dark one because dark make you look thinner, but somtimes like ones with a little detail like lighter patches on them or a few fashionable rips and tears not huge ones though

    the two skinny or straight away. do no longer bypass with a flare shrink, or fairly low shrink pants (on the tummy). pointed footwear, the two heels or residences even, will elongate the foot which in turn will elongate your legs, so which you should attempt those with your denims.
