Best Jeans for Tall Women That Fit and Flatter

This affordable pair of jeans from Everlane boasts the perfect ‘90s-style fit for women who struggle to find the right length. The super high-waist is flattering, holding in what you want to hide without feeling uncomfortably tight. It boasts a straight leg from hip to ankle in a variety of inseams including a longer-than-average 29.5 inch.

These relaxed, wide leg jeans come with a straight hem and high rise for a loose, chic silhouette. The ankle length inseam is meant to be a bit short, which gives taller women more leeway. However, this pair starts with a longer-than-usual 29.5-inch inseam regardless.

Anyone who’s ever tried to wear a pair of white jeggings probably has encountered that weird-looking leg grab and ripple around the crotch. That won’t happen with this pair from Revolve. “It’s nice and straight through the leg with a slight knee flair to lengthen the leg without sucking onto the calf,” says Danner.

These very affordable pants wear like jeans but feel like leggings. They’ve received thousands of rave reviews on Amazon for their snug fit that offers some stretch and hidden belly-slimming panel. One reviewer said, “I have had two kids, I’m six feet tall and I have my mom tummy. These are the only pants I can wear without having any issues and the only ones I feel are flattering.” Sold.

One of Danner’s favorite jean brands, these relatively affordable skinnies from Not Your Favorite Daughter have racked up rave reviews from women of all heights for their perfect and comfortable fit. Their lift and tuck technology shapes and curves the butt while the no gap back ensures your underwear isn’t ever going to show.

The classic jeans were created by Levi Strauss himself back in 1873—and there’s a reason they keep coming back around in style. I personally own several pairs. The iconic straight leg and trim fit through the hip work well on most bodies. Plus, for the tall women among us, this quintessential cut is available in both a 30-inch and 32-inch inseam.

These chic trousers boast a decently high rise, slim fit and 21.5-inch leg opening with a large hem, offering a cool ‘70s-style silhouette. Made with a thick stretch material, they offer room to move around (in case you’re throwing your leg over a saddle) yet hold their shape throughout the day. Again, these are another personal favorite of which I own multiple pairs. The multiple length options help ensure you don’t end up with those unintentional high waters flares like you did in middle school.

These waist-accentuating high-rise mom jeans with a tapered leg are a perennial hit for good reason. They’re casual and comfortable, while lengthening your legs to the point of looking like a ‘90s supermodel. An added bonus: The Perfect Vintage jean is available in a variety of washes and fits, including a curvy cut wide leg, that can suit basically everyone.

Khloe Kardashian’s line of denim have all been designed to fit a wide range of body types, unsurprisingly, with a particular emphasis on jeans for curvy women. This cut is a best-seller due to its one-size-fits-four design that is intended to fit no matter what—period bloating, weight fluctuations, an over-the-top vacation, you name it. It also comes in long to cover a wider array of heights.

Abercrombie has shed its early 2000’s reputation as a brand that exclusively caters to rail-thin models. Its extensive line of curvy jeans is one of the most flattering on the market. Danner is particularly fond of this flattering cut that comes in a wide selection of washes, sizes, and inseam lengths from extra short to extra long. “I like a straight leg like this on curves, because it’s elongating,” she says.

These jeans designed for women with long legs come with a standard 33-inch inseam. It features a straight leg fitted in the waist, butt, and hips—which is intended to elongate long legs even more. The silhouette is also an on-trend cropped style that looks great with anything from boots to a classic pair of white sneakers.

These “Iconic perky butt jeans,” according to New York Magazine are “flattering as hell.” That’s why they’ve become a staple among downtown NYC fashion circles. But what makes them great for tall women, no matter where they live, is that they’re cut long and are meant to be tailored.
