Choosing the right pants!

All of the above styles can be of different lengths, colors or seasonality. In order not to get lost in such an abundance, you should always remember the dogmas given below regarding how to choose the right pants:

• Choose the right size. Do not take a thing that is small or large in size to you.
• Choose trousers so that they emphasize your advantages, and hide the disadvantages.
• If you have very thin legs, then choose legs that are decorated with pockets, patterns, embroidery or stripes.
• For slender figures, styles that can visually round and add femininity to your image are suitable.
• If you have a not bright figure, without clear outlines, then you better look after yourself straight cut pants.

Important! Trousers of dark shades, including black ones, visually lengthen and slim your legs.

• If you want to hide the flaws of the figure, it is best to pick up trousers made of dense fabrics that hold their shape.
• Always make sure that the trousers do not pinch your sides and do not wrinkle on your hips.
• When experimenting with the length of the legs, do not forget to choose the right shoes.
• Choose pants that are perfect for your body type.

For each figure, choose your pants

Due to the variety of styles of trousers, you can easily choose the model that suits you. The main thing is that it be practical, beautiful and comfortable. Therefore, the following is information that will help you not to get lost and correctly choose your pants.

To date, there are 5 types of female figures.

• "Pear". It is characteristic that the lower body is more voluminous than the upper. Therefore, the main task in the formation of your bow is to create a balance between the top and bottom. Pay attention to styles with arrows and a wide line of the belt.

Important! “Pears” are not recommended to wear trousers with embroidery, bright and large patterns, voluminous pockets. You should also pass by styles such as skinny and breeches.

• "An Apple". It is not difficult to recognize women with this type of figure: narrow shoulders and hips, small breasts, voluminous and convex belly. Therefore, the owners of such a figure when choosing clothes, especially trousers, have a hard time. Your main task is to hide your tummy. Absolutely any style of trousers will suit you, but their fit should be no lower than average.

Important! You can forget about low landing. You should not choose models that are decorated in the belt.

• "Hourglass". It is considered to be the ideal type of figure. In this case, the upper and lower torso are balanced, and the waist has a clear outline. Therefore, when choosing trousers, focus on the waist. Styles with arrows and a small flare are ideal for you.

Important! Try to avoid low landing. It is not recommended to wear trousers with voluminous colors and patch pockets in the hips.

• "Triangle". Top prevails here. Shoulders and chests, a dim waist, narrow hips and a flat butt are very pronounced. Your task is to visually make the bottom wider. Almost all styles will suit you. Pay attention to the high waist, which will give your sides a smoother shape.

Important! Styles that emphasize the waist are not recommended. They should be avoided.

• "Rectangle". Your body type is similar to an apple. The only difference is that you do not have a convex abdomen. Your advantage is beautiful legs. They need to be emphasized. Replenish your wardrobe with styles such as skinny or hip-flared trousers. Feel free to have a variety of jewelery, a low waist and patch pockets. Mask your upper torso with oversize.

Important! We take away the glance of those around from our shortcomings, and emphasize the merits. This should be the golden rule of every woman.

In order to choose the right pants, you must not forget to take into account your height:

• Owners of very long legs should choose low-waist pants, shortened and straight. Not too tight options should prevail in your wardrobe. Styles such as zouaves or boyfriends will suit you.
• To add length to short legs, you need to choose high-waisted trousers. Avoid cuffs. Both skinny and flared will go for you.
• If you choose classic and flared styles of trousers, according to the rules of etiquette, the length of the legs should reach the middle of the heel.

Important! If the figure does not allow you to wear pants with various decorations, add accessories to the top of the image. It will look very stylish and feminine.

Elegant ladies with curvaceous

Separately, I would like to emphasize how to choose trousers for women who are prone to fullness.

Important! Women with curvaceous forms when choosing trousers should be guided by three directions: silhouette, simplicity and sexuality. Clothes should always be chosen according to the figure, rather than hiding behind voluminous and shapeless hoodies.

So, what works and what doesn't:

• You should discard clear and light tissues. Also try to avoid shine, look better at the matte color. Matte fabrics absorb light, making the figure slimmer.
• As mentioned earlier, dark colors slim. But this does not mean that you should walk only in the dark. Take a look at the burgundy, green, blue, gray and plum shades. They will not fill you up and will bring bright colors to your image.
• Try to get your pants straight cut. Do not experiment with a low waist. The average landing is more suitable for you.
• You should give up cropped trousers. They visually make the legs shorter and add extra volume.

Important! When forming your image, you should choose clothes so that the top and bottom of your outfit are in the same color scheme. So you visually make yourself slimmer. And the standard set in the form of a white top and a dark bottom will only divide your figure in half.

Choose trousers for a man

Modern fashion trends make men think about the formation of their image. Because of ignorance, men very often wear one style of trousers and wear it constantly, for fear of changing anything. Therefore, in order to always have a presentable look and keep up with the times, you need to know a few rules and recommendations on how to choose a man pants.

Important! In the basic men's wardrobe must be classic trousers, regardless of the type of activity.

What are the styles of men's trousers?

1. Classic. They are in every men's wardrobe. They are worn with shoes of the same style or oxfords. Classic style trousers can be with or without pinches. Modern men do not see the point in them. But for hollows, pinches are an excellent tool in order to visually make a figure slimmer.
2. Slacks. These pants are casual. They are sewn in a straight cut from cotton fabrics. Ideal for both young and older men. This is a very versatile option. They are appropriate for both party and office.
3. Khaki. This is a men's alternative to jeans. They can be sewn from very bright fabrics. Classic khaki: blue, olive and beige. Khaki can be with or without pinches.
4. Chinos. This is a great solution for men's wardrobe. They are very versatile and suitable for any look. The main material is cotton. Chinos are mainly sewn in beige shades.
5. Cargo. “Descendants” from military uniforms. Cargo is designed for simplicity and convenience.
6. Jeans. In a men's wardrobe, they can be:
   • Direct. They are similar to the classic ones and are constantly at the peak of fashion.
   • Flared. They are suitable for any type of male figure, while perfectly concealing flaws.
   • Skinny. Suitable for thin and short men.

The basic rules on how to choose the right trousers for men:

1. Dress pants always match your height. Do not make them too short or long.Pants of the correct length should reach the heel of the shoes.
2. Pockets should never be bristling.
3. Always consider the features of your physique. If you have voluminous hips and a stomach, you need to pay attention to trousers with an understated fit and wide free legs. For men with a thin physique and insufficiently voluminous buttocks, pants with “French pockets” on the side seams are suitable.

Choose the size correctly!

The right size of the trousers affects your image as a whole. If everything is successful, then you look solid and attractive. If not, then at best you will just be uncomfortable, and at worst you will look ridiculous. For all styles of trousers, the measurement rules are exactly the same:

• You need to measure the waist and hips, the length of the legs.

Important! Due to the diversity of male figures, a man’s waist is in the place where he wears trousers.

• If you buy pants in the market or in the store, then experienced sellers will come to your aid. If you make a purchase online, then you can find out your size using the dimensional grid. Just find your options in the size chart and determine which one is yours.

Important! As for foreign goods, some difficulties may arise here. For example, on American products you can often find not only the size of the trousers, but also the measurement parameters. Note that they are in inches. In order to translate into the usual measure of length, you need to multiply the number indicated on the tag by 2.54.
