The purpose of jeans is to look proportional, to make you look good.

Low-rise jeans – or so they called hipster, hip-huggers and low-riders – are meant to wear quite low on the hips, either its’ to sit low on, or below the hips. Usually they sit around 3-inches lower than the belly button. With lower cut on the waist, these type of jeans will definitely display more skin at the waist, torso, and hips. Accordingly, they are sometimes worn in combination with shorter crop tops, giving a glimpse of skin between the jeans and the top, or (more commonly in the summer or in warmer countries) showing their entire midriff including the belly button

Low-rise jeans give the illusion of shorter legs, but a longer torso. For this reason, low-rise jeans look best on people with a short torso and long legs, in order to elongate the body while keeping a proportional look. Also, the buttocks is supposedly said to appear smaller in low-rise jeans.

If you are interested in low-rise jeans, then you will find it easy enough in the market, almost every brand has their supply of low-rise jeans (both for men and women); name it Diesel, or Lee, Levis – and even those designer jeans such as Guess, they all have that type . Currently, low-rise jeans are manufactured in many styles, and though tight jeans are usually the most popular, they also exist in loose, baggy, flare and destroyed style. And believe it or not, since low-rise jeans have become so popular, manufacturers have also begun making low-rise styles of other kinds of pants. Check out your local stores, you will see tons of variety available. Indeed, low-slung jeans, especially tight black styles, have become increasingly popular in the more recent hipster scene.

Designer jeans are high-fashion jeans, top brands that are designed and cut either for women and/or men, but with slight differences with the regular-quality jeans in the fitting aspect. Designer jeans can be well-fitted or quite-relax to your desire, while for the type of cut, there’s no special differences; boot-cut, skinny jeans, flare, straight, etc. To make it bold, sometimes the designer names or fashion house’s logo is featured on the back pockets or on the right front coin-pocket.

To think again, what is it with the designer jeans? Aren’t jeans supposed to be equipped with “die-hard” durability instead of “just-fashion”? Well, there are a numerous aspects of life that need some approach. The corporate and casual style did merge a while ago, in case you forgot. And designers are redefining those work attire. So, instead of ending up looking sloppy in your jeans, they made you look smart (isn’t it great?). Today, many work places encourage business casual wear, but still expect their employees to look presentable.

The only thing to be concern is, to maintain your appearance. As designer jeans usually come with embellishments, you would probably make sure you don’t get to “sprung out of the bush” when it comes to those excessive touch of style. Sometime the best thing to do in order to keep it low is picking the fading trends instead the breaking-in one.

Wrangler' Jeans for Women

Wrangler which was known as The Hudson Overall Company was Levi’s biggest competitor back in the 1940′s. At that time, the garment hasn’t been called jeans yet, merely known as denim work wear.

Wrangler is introduced
In 1947 Wrangler introduced the first ‘body fit’ jean and consequently produced the first benchmark success in the denim business. This effort to push into the Rodeo and Western wear market wasn’t without any struggle; they hired a star designer and tailor of this particular scene like Rodeo Ben. To build the brand and connect the name with durability and quality the company convinced celebrity rodeo stars like Jim Shoulders, Bill Linderman and Freckles Brown to wear and test the fabric – named 13MWZ -. After the Rodeo Championships in 1949 the success of “Wrangler” was programmed. The Wrangler jeans became clearly the number 1 among all outfitters of the Western Wear Scene.

In 1974 the Wrangler Jeans became ‘Official Jeans of the Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association’. By then Wrangler had been perfecting the durability and feel of denim for more than 70 years. Now, a best-selling outfitter of Western wear for over 100 years, Wrangler is synonymous with the dusty independence of the frontier. Heritage and history serve this brand well as Wrangler remains a coveted iconoclastic brand for millions of Americans.
