Ladies, I’m here to help you find the perfect denim fit!
When I attend showroom appointments for the various brands I buy for, I’m constantly asked what type of denim style is the strongest for us at DrJays.com I can’t pinpoint one exact style since everyone woman’s body type is different; that’s why we offer a variety of denims styles to choose from.
Pear Shape
Pear shape women normally have a small to medium bust with a curvier bottom half.
Cut: Boot cut jeans and straight legs look great on all body types, but these jeans are awesome on pear shape bodies.
