Ok So what should women wear who want to be able to bend over or squat down and not let every perv in the area see her crack? Not all of us long to flaunt a tramp stamp

Ugh, I think the high-waisted look only works on jeans that have a skinny leg. These just look lazy!

I grew up int he 70′s with high waist jeans. I have ample hips and a small waist and have had kids. When I wear lowrise jeans the loose skin has nowhere to go and I have no waist. At least in hiwaist jeans my jiggle is controlled and my little waist looks good. My husband likes th look of the mommy jeans-but never with pleats!!

It just depends on what looks good on your body. People should not try to follow trends; rather, we should pick pieces that flatter our bodies the most. Many women look horrible in low rise jeans (muffin top syndrome, accentuates a flat ass, a big gap in the back if you do have a big butt…) and the solution for all those flaws I’ve mentioned are higher rise jeans. Maybe not everyone can pull off the super high waist like that in the picture, but for many others, it may be very flattering.

Bleh. There are very few people I know who can pull them off and make them look “hip.” Otherwise, they just make a weird lump in the middle of your shirt, that is…unless you actually tuck your shirt IN, which may be the intention, but that still makes me cringe.

They’re definitely not for me with my short torso, long legs combination but I think all styles of jeans (yes, including this one) should be available for women who might prefer one style over another.

ok… it may be because I admire and sport vintage clothing, but I’m all in favor for the high waist. I’ve been looking for a slender, high waist, brown skirt for a long time to match my 60′s high waist sweater. This photo is a horrible example of what the high waist can pull off.

most women in the USA hate these jeans because they are too fat to wear them.
