The Cuffed Jeans Lookbook

Good news for petites (of which I am one), our pant hems are now at the heart of trends! These hems are just waiting to be showcased for all to see and have even inspired new cuts of jeans. Thus, even those of us who are a few centimeters taller can adopt this new fashion detail.

Moreover, worn discreetly with a tone-on-tone hem, or with a color contrast to make a bigger impression, this cuff infiltrates all styles.

Machine Hem or Hand Hem? You Decide!

There are two schools of thought regarding cuffed jeans. On one side, the hand-hemmed style, and on the other, the machine-made. The former offers a slightly more natural pant bottom, which can evolve according to your desires, particularly in terms of height, thickness, and the lines it adds to your pants.

Meanwhile, the latter provides a slightly more sophisticated and polished finish to an outfit. This type of cuffed jeans will maintain its shape throughout the day, thanks to its stitching, and will keep its straight and perfect silhouette. However, it lacks the versatility of the former.

Which Cuffed Jeans Model to Choose?

The style and desired height of the hem will determine the length of the pants to buy. If you’re not very tall, a basic jean can quickly look like two elephant trunks on your legs, meaning, bingo, you already have extra fabric to create a hem!

However, for taller silhouettes, we have seen new pant lengths appearing on the shelves in recent months. While keeping timeless or trendy cuts, like mom, balloon, bootcut, or regular jeans, brands are adding a few extra centimeters to allow you to create a perfectly fitted hem for your height and the shoes worn.

In summary, the perfect model of cuffed jeans largely depends on your height as well as the style and versatility sought. Thus, to create multiple looks with one pair of jeans, a hand-hemmed model will be more appreciated. Meanwhile, for having a cuffed jean with a nice height that retains its elegance, we will turn to a sewn model. Note that the quality of the jeans and its rigidity will affect the appearance and the hold of the hem of the pants.
