Tummy Tuck Jeans info…

The Not Your Daughters Jeans® women’s jeans brand come in a wide variety of styles. The jeans are cut as classic bootleg, classic wide retro trousers, side entry zip and slim leg jeans.

The word jeans here doesn’t necessarily mean classic denim jeans as NYDJ also make trousers, or jean styles in other fabrics, plus a jumpsuit.

Fabrics include “regular” denim, cashmere denim, lurex denim, velveteen, corduroy and heathered twill.

Colours include classic indigo denim, light/dark blue denim, black denim, overdyed denim, pinstripe black/blue denim, and black, grey and black multi-stripe in other fabrics.

NYDJ body shapewear

To wear on top, the company make a body shaper, v-necked tank top style, in black nude and white. This can be worn under T-shirts, blouses and tops to create a flattering look above as well as below the waist.

The styles come with “regular pockets” or inverted welt pockets and can be bought as “regular” styles or with extra “embellishments” – rhinestones and embroidered pocket designs..

Embellishments

The range essentially features jeans, trousers and jumpsuits which will suit all occasions – there’s something for you to wear to the office, chilling out at the weekend, or as party wear. All the styles feature the cut and cross-stitched panel which gives the shaping and comfort qualities.

Comparison to other styles

NYDJ skinny style

Skinny jeans: these were so on trend in recent times it was difficult to spot music and fashion types wearing anything else. Great if you have a “skinny figure” to match the skinny jeans, but for anyone who has a more curvaceous look definitely not recommended. The tendency will be for chunkier thighs yet bizarrely thin looking calves and ankles, especially teamed up with high heels. The infamous “muffin-top” / “whale tail” tummy can also peep out of the waistband, as they tend to have lower waistbands with skin tight styling. NYDJ did introduce a tummy tuck jeans skinny leg version recently, so check them out.

Tapered jeans

Tapered jeans: the bane of TV stylists Trinny and Susanna who have committed to print their belief that these should, in fact, be made illegal. Potentially unflattering for the tummy and bottom due to creating a triangular effect in front and back profile, which draws the eye in and  enhances the size of the middle. In other words, yes your bum does look big in tapered jeans.

NYDJ bootcut

NYDJ straight leg

Conventional bootleg / straight leg jeans: again, the potential for larger looking thighs is there, along with muffin tops/whale tails if the wearer has a curvier figure.

NYDJ wide leg

The answer here to ensure you get a pair of truly sexy jeans is comparing the tummy tuck ones with your regular pairs. Go shopping in your normal jeans with a good friend (who will be honest with you!) in tow and see which ones work better for you shape.
