The 9 Best Jeans For Tall Women

“Polished” may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of “bell bottoms,” but with its sleek, streamlined silhouette and figure-hugging stretch, that’s exactly what this pair is. That’s confirmed by Bustle’s Associate Commerce Editor Lisa Fogarty, who highly recommends them. "I love that these flare jeans can pass for trousers and look as great with a T-shirt as they do with a blazer and heels,” Fogarty says. “Their shape, two front pockets, and light wash give them a vintage '70s edge and they're super stretchy and comfortable." The inseam length is a hair over 33 inches (33.46 for a size small, and 33.86 for every other size); and Fogarty, who is 5 foot 7, also gives the length her stamp of approval.

And as far as Amazon shoppers are concerned, this mid-rise pair is the ultimate skinny jean, having earned a whopping 30,000+ five-star ratings or reviews (and counting). Shoppers rave about the comfort and pitch-perfect fit, thanks to the addition of 2% elastane for stretch. This style comes in three inseam lengths, the longest hitting at 32 inches.

Levi’s storied 505 jeans are the industry standard for straight-leg jeans — which means they sell out fast. According to customers, this pair of Levi’s straight-leg jeans look, feel, and fit the same as 505s, but they’re easier to get your hands on. This style also has 2% elastane, as opposed to 505s’ 1%, for easier movement. These feature a mid-rise, a slim yet relaxed fit all the way from the hip to the ankle, and satisfyingly durable construction. The standard inseam length is 32 inches, though depending on your height, you can also opt for the “long” style that measures a generous 34 inches.

No denim wardrobe would be complete without one (or more) pair of Levi’s; and since high-waisted jeans aren’t going anywhere, the brand’s 725s are a great investment piece.

Plus, the regular inseam length measures 32 inches, which will work nicely for tall people.

For those days when you don’t really feel like wearing jeans but the occasion calls for a pair, reach for these jeggings from Amazon Essentials. These are blended with 3% elastane that molds perfectly to your hips and bum, but won’t lose its shape after several wears and washes. They also feature an elastic waistband that sits high on the waist and pulls on as easily as real leggings — and they feel as comfortable as leggings too, according to several customers who actually lounge around the house in them. The brand doesn’t specify the exact inseam length, but they are available in a “long” size.

• Available sizes: 14 — 30 (available in short, regular, and tall inseams)

And for those days when even jeggings feel too constricting (we’ve all been there), consider these denim-like yoga pants. A true yoga pant, they’re made of a stretchy, squat-proof polyester-spandex blend to facilitate easy movement when you’re in the gym or on the mat. But look a little more closely, and you’ll see that they also boast four functional pockets — two in front, two in back — and subtle denim-inspired stitching along the waist and down the legs. The dark indigo color and bootcut also harken to your favorite pair of jeans, but feel a hundred times comfier. Plus, these customizable pants are designed with people up to 6 feet tall in mind: They come with a 34-inch inseam, though you can cut them (according to package directions) to tailor them to a 28-, 30-, or 32-inch inseam, depending on your height and preferences.
