Control Top Denim is Comfortable for Everyone

For many women, body shapewear is an uncomfortable necessity of life. A lot of people simply don’t feel comfortable leaving the house without it. However, there are alternatives that are much more comfortable than wearing shapewear beneath your clothes. Women of all shapes and sizes, can wear a pair of control top slimming jeans with the confidence they had in their skinny jeans back in the day! Here’s what to know about this denim:



Who Would Benefit from Control Top Denim?

Anyone who has felt self conscious about her midsection will love control top denim. From women in a size two who have had a baby to women who wear plus size jeans, many have tried different methods of concealing their tummy. Many have gone as far as to swear off jeans altogether, or only pair them with tunic blouses or other flowy material to distract from their body. But this is no way to live!



Feel Slim Without the Bulk

One of the biggest complaints about adding shapewear to your wardrobe is the added bulk. While it may slim your figure, it can be rough to wear so many layers. With control top features built right into the tummy of your jeans, you won’t have to add another layer into the mix!

Other Aspects to Look for in Jeans

If you’ve tried control top denim and found that it didn’t work for your figure, there are other ways to use jeans to your advantage. For example, a dark wash is more slimming than a lighter wash, and a higher rise waist can conceal a muffin top far more effectively than a pair of low rise jeans can. It’s also a good idea to shop with your body shape in mind:

  • Hourglass shape: A high waisted jean will flatter your waist and keep you from having to pull your jeans up throughout the day. A skinny or flared cut can accentuate your curves.
  • Tall: Tall women typically struggle with finding jeans that are a proper length. If your legs are long, opt for a pair of jeans with a low rise to balance your top and bottom halves.
  • A larger midsection: Jeans with a slim, but not skinny cut are most flattering on women with a midsection that’s wider than their shoulders.
