  • A pair of straight-leg jeans in a rigid denim will accentuate your curves without exaggerating them.

  • Top stockists: Sussan, 1300 363 351 or Carla Zampatti, (02) 9264-8244.

  • What to avoid: a tight tapered fit with small pockets, as this will make your bottom appear larger.

The perfect jeans to add curves

  • A pair of skinny-leg tapered jeans with a high waist are perfect for creating shape. Look for denim that has a little stretch to skim over and emphasise curves — stretch denim is often more comfortable too!

  • Top stockists: Mavi, (02) 9699 9700 or Marcs, 1800 688 290.

  • What to avoid: baggy boyfriend style jeans. These may make you look shapeless.

The perfect jeans to make you look taller

  • A pair of boot-cut jeans will help you appear taller. Make sure that they’re slim through the thigh to create a long, lean silhouette.

  • Top stockists: Witchery, 1800 640 249 or French Connection, 1800 006 655.

  • What to avoid: baggy or cropped jeans, these will only may you look stocky.

The perfect jeans to make you look slimmer

  • Want to look 5kgs lighter? With the right pair of jeans it is possible. Our pick? The trouser cut. The wide trouser leg jean with drape from the waist to the ankle, hiding hips and thighs. A darker washed denim will further accentuate this effect.

  • Top stockists: Jeans West, 1800 809 889 and Maggie T, 1800 678 189.

  • What to avoid: skinny-leg jeans.
