Some people will tell you with the utmost enthusiasm: "YES! High-waisted pants are a MUST!", while others will be more in the mood "Oh no! This cut isn't for me at all...".
And yet, they are well and truly adapted to all body types. But be careful! It's only flattering if you find the right model! And by the right model, we mean: finding the perfect cut for our shape, the colors most in tune with our mood and a fabric that will enhance the silhouette ;)
But before we explain all this in detail, let's get back to the basics of this cut.
The High Waisted Pant is a trouser whose waist rises above the navel.
Very common in the '70s, they've become ultra-trendy again in recent years. For this, a little updating was necessary. We explain!
Since the 70's, lifestyles, styles and techniques have changed. And yes, high-waisted pants have evolved to become one of our favorite bottoms of the year!
No longer confined to Eph's legs, this cut is now available in boyfriend, slim, super-slim, straight, cropped, fluid, carrot, paper-bag, flare and other fits. And thanks to elastane and new materials, it's now super-comfortable to wear!
As you can see, you're bound to find a trendy model that's just right for you!
Despite the passing years, the craze for high-waisted jeans and pants continues unabated. And luckily for us!
We're free to take a slice of the cake, because yes, the days when nothing was supposed to stick out of our little "low-rise" are long gone ;)
So it's to our great delight that it's reappearing in our wardrobes today. Now it's up to us to make our waists stand out, our curves contoured and our buttocks shapely! And no, girls, there's no need to pinch yourself! You're not dreaming ;)
So if you still think that the high waist shows off your love handles more than it hides them, do a reboot immediately! The whole point of this cut is to camouflage our little imperfections, like our little bulges, by sheathing them.
And because good news never comes alone, here's the ultimate bonus: the higher the waist, the longer and slimmer your legs!
Now it's up to you to decide how high you want to go ;)
As we've already explained, it's all a question of style. You need to be aware of your body, your flaws, but above all your qualities. And, of course, feel comfortable! What's the point of wearing something if you don't feel good in it after all?
Don't panic, we've got a few recommendations for you!
If you find that your pants accentuate your tummy rather than hide it, then they're not the right model for you! The solution is to opt for a paper-bag version. This cut is generally distinguished by a waistband made from the same fabric as the pants, tightening and slimming your waist.
Do your buttocks look flattened rather than enhanced? Don't opt for fabrics that are too thin or too soft, and choose gathered waistbands to enhance your bottom!
Your hips aren't well defined? No problem - details are your friends! Belts, darts, pleats, gathers... Adding volume will harmonize your silhouette.
Finally, for the smallest among us, we recommend women's cropped pants to lengthen your legs, while taller women will have real success with a flare cut!
While short tops or sweaters are the obvious choice, we also recommend slightly longer tops (shirt, knit, tee-shirt...) that you can tuck into your pants. If you're interested in fashion, you can't miss this combo!
As you'll have guessed, the big advantage of this piece is its ability to lengthen your legs. To accentuate this effect, we recommend heels! However, if you're looking for comfort (don't worry, we understand!), thick-soled sneakers are the perfect option.
Depending on the model, this type of pant can be worn in many situations. Opt for women's wide-leg pants black wide-leg trousers for formal evenings, or straight jeans for chill afternoons. When it comes to fabrics, we prefer linen for shopping days in August and corduroy for family evenings in December ;)
High-waisted pants don't necessarily mean women's slim-fit pants ; yes, our high-waisted trousers come in all cuts and can be combined with most of our models in the collection.
The women's straight-cut pants are a popular way to balance a silhouette, especially when it comes to high-waisted pants.
A well-defined high waist followed by a flared leg from thigh to ankle - ideal for work or a glamorous evening out.
Women's high-waisted pants are the perfect way to emphasize your assets and create a harmonious look, whatever your style.
For girls who want to hide their complexes and show off their bosoms, this type of pant is perfect for boosting your self-confidence!
Boyfriend, flare, paper bag or cigarette, the choice of women's pants and you'll always find a pair of jeans or high-waisted pants to match your style, girls ;)
