Finding the perfect pair of jeans isn’t easy for anyone, but it can be even harder for petite shoppers.
Too often, those 5’4” and shorter have a limited number of styles to choose from or have to spend extra money and time on tailoring. We dug deep into the best denim brands that offer petite lengths — including Levi’s, Abercrombie and Madewell — to find the hottest styles of the season specifically designed to fit and flatter shorter figures.
Our selection includes trendy flared wide leg jeans, wide leg jeans and timeless straight leg cuts in colors from light to dark.
