High waisted jeans aren't flattering

I’m tired of squeezing my post baby body into low- or mid-rise jeans with all the extra skin squished up into a muffin top. I just bought some high waisted jeans from the Gap and they are awesome. They make me feel slim at the top (I know this is the definition of mom jeans) and I don’t feel like anything is hanging out. How can that not be flattering? Granted I will probably wear these with sweaters and non-tucked in shirts but I feel good in them. I haven’t bought Gap jeans in over 10 years but I’m going to get some more.


I too have been happy with the Gap jeans lately!


I need to buy some high-waisted. Can you tell me which ones you bought?


8:12 here. I bought black high waisted skinny ankle jeans from the Gap. They come up to my belly button. They have an inner pocket design that keeps the pockets smooth on the inside.

This is misleading because the left is either the wrong size or a a poor fit. The right still makes her butt cheeks look strangely long.

Please stop all deluding yourselves that you look attractive in mom jeans. You don’t. You just don’t.


Is that Lindsey Lohan?? Looks equally bad. Some women should just stay away from jeans. Any jeans.

Newsflash: all women have different bodies and most don’t look like Giselle or size 00.

They make my butt look long and even flatter than it looks normally and add about 10 pounds-I can't wear them (I have a slim, boyish type shape). I think only women (primarily young women) with small waists, curvy, round rear ends and at least somewhat long legs can rock this trend well.


High waisted jeans look amazing on womanly curves. If you have no hips and a flat ass they're not the style for you. That doesn't mean they're not flattering on those of us with hourglass figures.

Yes. I remember when low rise first came out. My friend and I went and tried them on together, and we laughed and laughed at how ridiculous they looked and felt. It took me five year to buy a pair after that; they were just so different.

Disagree. The right side shows a naturally shaped body. The left has the obviously horrible muffin top (and that is not a fit problem; it is is a design problem), and it smooshes the butt into a displaced hip flare.

+1. The lady looks totally fine in the right picture. There’s nothing hanging out, and the jeans look like they fit comfortably. People are unnecessarily critical.

They look better than my buttcrack hanging out of low rise ones.

She looks fine, if you consider having a 2.5 foot long ass fine.

Split the difference and go with a mid rise which fits and is actually flattering.

I agree, the jeans in the left picture fit the woman’s thighs just fine, it’s not a size problem.

The model is kind of doughy, though and if she sized up, the pair on the left would be fine. Just because you wish you wore a single digit size doesn't mean you should.

If a woman is wearing a dress, do you think her ass goes all the way to her shoulders, just because the fabric does?

I don't get this. She looks like her ass begins where the yoke sits. That's the part of the yoke. And then there is fabric up to her natural waist.

This isn't challenging.

I look at the pictures on madewell and it seems like a great big box shape over the waistline/ crotch area. Just acres of blue fabric. Not so attractive.

Like draw a box over the picture (in your head) just lots and lots of fabric.
