How to Care For Your Jeans


Now that you have successfully selected blue jeans that fit well and flatter your figure, you need to know the best way to care for them. Here are 7 clever tips on how to care for your jeans and wear them more attractively.

  1. To make your pants fit and even give a little, put them on and sit in the bathtub in warm water, let the water drip off, take them off carefully and hang them up to dry. When they are nearly dry, put your dungarees on again and keep them on allowing them to completely dry while you wear them.
  2. If you have a pair that fits well and cost a little more, don’t wash them, take them to the dry cleaners instead. It’s worth it.
  3. When washing them, prevent them from shrinking by not putting them in the dryer. Do this even with pre shrunk fabrics. However, if you lose weight and want them tighter, put them in the dryer.
  4. Press in a pleat with the iron to look slimmer in your garment and also make your your legs look slimmer.
  5. Never turn the excess length into cuffs because it will make your legs look shorter. Have them shortened if you cannot find the right length.
  6. Denims are now made in stretch fabric for the heavy tall or the short woman which solves any fit problems and most brands can be machine washed.
  7. To properly care for your jeans and wear them attractively, they should always be washed and ironed. Unwashed, wrinkled jeans do not make a fashion statement.
