Plus-Size Skinny Jeans

Ever since the early Aughts, Skinny jeans have been the rage (especially for straight sizes) but we’re here to say that Skinny Jeans look good on every body, period. The best plus size skinny jeans are all skinny jeans—you just have to try them on in your size and explore what different brands have to offer. If you’re looking for advice on how to wear skinny jeans, you’ve come to the right place. Here at Dia & Co we know how hard it can be to find your dream skinny jeans. Hopefully our advice will help you find exactly what you’re looking for, right here in our shop and with our expert personal styling options. 

Finding Skinny Jeans for Your Body

Skinny Jeans are characterized by a slim fit throughout the hips, thighs and legs. Like many other jean styles, the rise and fabrication will help you dial into the style that’s right for your body type. For those with broader hips and midsections, higher rises (Aka, high waisted skinny jeans) will always be the most comfortable while letting you wear literally any style of top with them. High Rise Skinny Jeans are the most versatile for this reason and we recommend finding different colors, washes and more to round out your wardrobe. If you’re looking to show off your midsection, however, go for mid-rise skinny jeans and low-rise skinny jeans. If you are broader in the thighs and calves, look for brands that keep your curves in top priority and design cuts specifically for you. At Dia & Co, all of the brands we work with design with you in mind. You’re sure to find skinny jeans that were meant for you all right here. 

Play with Styles, Colors, and Washes

Distressed skinny jeans can be characterized by “worn out” detailing. Ripped skinny jeans feature holes in sections like the knees that create a unique look. Plus size black skinny jeans are always in demand, and so you’ll never find them in short supply. Again, play with different rises and try distressed black skinny jeans if you want an added edge to your look. Grey plus size skinny jeans make a great alternative to straight up black skinny jeans and will give you more of a vintage look. White plus size skinny jeans make great spring and summertime staples as most of your favorite pastel and linen blouses go best with this crisp white denim look. Plus size red skinny jeans can make a serious statement, especially when paired with a dramatic top (like an off-the-shoulder blouse) and heels. Hello, hot date night outfit!

Finally, the fabric can also give you greater comfort. If you want a hint of stretch, look for plus size stretchy skinny jeans that have a hint of elastane in the fabrication. Some skinny jeans can also be skinny jeggings—or jeans that fit like comfy leggings. These styles are great for wearing with tunics and even under short dresses in the fall and winter. Speaking of styling your skinny jeans…

How to Create an Outfit with Skinny Jeans

Knowing how to style skinny jeans is a lot easier than most other jean styles. Whereas with flare jeans, boyfriend jeans or wide leg jeans, you need specific footwear to achieve different looks, finding what to wear with skinny jeans is a breeze. The answer is: wear everything! Skinny jeans allow you to show off your natural body and so, once you find the style that is most comfortable to you, focus more on tops that make a statement. Blouses with fun sleeves, tiers and detailed embroidery are the types of tops we’re thinking of. For a more casual weekend look, wear a vintage tee and sneakers or boots. 

Skinny jeans take the back seat nicely when it comes to accessories, so all footwear looks great with this style of jean. Whether you wear a strappy sandal, glam platforms, sneakers or boots, skinny jeans will look great with any footwear. Particularly in the fall and winter, ankle booties can be easily styled with skinny jeans. Simply throw on an edgy top or tee and chunky knit or flannel. Skinny jeans can even be styled with duck boots in the same way. You’ll be most comfortable with oversized layers and a parka, letting your skinny jeans be the canvas while all your other clothing and accessories make a statement.
