Initially, jeans were made as working clothes for farmers, but these times are long past and now it is not only practical casual clothing for men and women of all ages.
In the wardrobe of every fashionista there are at least one of these pants, and famous fashion designers are inspired by whole works of art made of denim. Among the incredible variety of models, types of cut, fabrics and manufacturers an important issue is the correct choice of jeans.
How to understand the designations of the size of women's jeans
In order to choose a jeans on the figure, which will favorably emphasize the advantages and skillfully hide the shortcomings, you must be able to understand their parameters. Among the existing ones, the most common are the European, American, as well as the Russian and Chinese systems.
European labeling system
Standard is the marking system, which has the values of L (meaning the length of the leg along the inner surface) and W (meaning how much waist). These are the main indicators for which denim is selected, as well as knowing the size of clothing and exact growth.
How to determine your jeans size, taking measurements
In order to properly take measurements, measurements should be made on linen, and not on top of clothes. The tape, which measures the parameters of the body, should fit snugly against it, and not be too tight or free. The most accurate and simple method of taking measurements will measure your jeans, which fit well on the figure.
Growth is most often indicated on a tag near the size of jeans. Waist circumference is determined by the thinnest part. Girth of the hips is the most prominent part of the buttocks.
You can determine your parameters by the European system using a universal formula. The formula that determines the required size of jeans:
There is a constant number - 16, which in calculations is subtracted from any clothing size. For example, you can take the standard height of 170 - 180 cm and, accordingly, 48 size in clothing. If you subtract 16 from 48, you get 32, which will be the first marking value - W32.
The second value is determined by the table, where the ratios of growth rates and the length of the leg on the inner surface (L) are indicated.
How to find out the parameters of women's jeans
The following table lists the most common manufacturers and compliance parameters:
| CIS | International standard | European | America |

Differences marking domestic and foreign manufacturers
Due to the significant differences between the markings of different manufacturers, it is quite difficult to choose the necessary item. What are the main differences between them?
Chinese manufacture
Usually on the websites of manufacturers from China their own dimensional grid is indicated, because they do not have universal parameter designations. Letters that designate dimensions usually correspond to international ones, where S is the smallest, M is medium, L is the largest, corresponding to domestic ones from 40 to 52 and European from 32 to 54.
But, the characteristic difference is that any European value is always greater than the same Chinese one, and therefore one should be guided only by the measures that the manufacturer indicates in the table, because Asians are lower than Europeans.
American production
Both European and American sizes are denoted by the letters L and W. Quite a common way to designate clothes with numbers from 0 to 20 or letters - XS - the smallest, S (from the English. Small) - small, M (medium) - average, L ( large) - large, XL - the largest value.
The letter X (extra), which is added to the standard, has the meaning "very", that is, very large or small. Large volumes indicate 2XL, 3XL and beyond.
European production
Most manufacturers indicate the designation, guided by European standards in the form of letters L and W. In this case, the length of the legs along the inner surface, the volume of the hips and waist are measured.
Russian production
Russian measurements are determined by the chest half-grips. For example, if the girth of the chest is 96 cm, then the required size will be 48.
If the girth is 94 cm, and the half-grip is 47 cm, which does not correspond to the marking, you need to choose between the two most suitable measures - 46 or 48. Taking the number 16 from these figures, you will get the necessary value of denim.
How not to make a mistake when choosing jeans, if you need a large size
Starting the correct selection of jeans with large parameters is necessary to determine the volume of your hips and waist. In the Russian system, usually the largest is 58 size.
It is important to know that the Russian number 42 corresponds to the American number 8, 44 - corresponds to 10 and beyond. An important condition for the selection is the correct choice of fabric. It is necessary to get products from organic cotton, avoiding purchases from streychevy fabrics.
A good quality item cannot be cheap, so it’s better not to save money. The cost of making clothes for the full is much more than the standard. In modern fabric, more and more stretching threads are added and the choice should be stopped on that model, which, when measured, is a bit cramped.
If it is very narrow or completely free, then the opposite effect will be obtained.
Contrary to popular belief that if you take a thing a size smaller, it will adjust the shape, the fabric just stretches and becomes wide.
During fitting, you should check the ease of movement, crouching several times and leaning to the side.
Jeans for large women with a high waist
Women's jeans with high waist large sizes are the best way to emphasize the dignity of the figure and hide the flaws of the full girls. A feature of such trousers can be called a belt located at the waist or higher.
Fat women are better to choose models from dark fabrics of classic cut. The main thing is that such clothes are not too tight on the figure, since it will look vulgar and reveal all the flaws.
Tissues that easily stretch, correct the defects of the figure only briefly, because they have the properties to stretch and become baggy in the place of the greatest load - the sides, the stomach. This will add extra volume and fullness will be even more noticeable.
How to learn to choose the right size jeans
Jeans of light shades, with arrows and a wide belt are more suitable for girls with a slim figure. Whereas girls with magnificent forms will look better in models of classical cut of dark shades without massive ornaments, stripes.
When taking measurements, the result will be more accurate if you ask someone to help with this.
A thing consisting of 98% cotton will be slightly pulled in the process of wearing, and fabrics that contain a lot of stretch thread will dangle after a while.
