Low-Waist/Rise Jeans:
These jeans sit very low on your waist and usually help accentuate your butt. Just remember to wear the proper panties with this type of jean!

These sit just below the belly button, usually to help cover any extra pooch some women may carry.We all love low rise jeans but wearing low rise jeans does have some challenges. Firstly, traditional styled jeans end at the waist. As the waist generally measures less than the hips, they taper gently in at the waist and this design feature helps to keep them up. Low-rise jeans have to be tight enough around the hips to keep them from falling down. This can often result in the top of the low rise jean cutting into what are coarsely referred to as the "love handles", resulting in an unsightly bulge above and below the jean top. Visually, women's low-rise jeans actually make the hip area larger and the length of the leg shorter. This visual illusion is created because there is less fabric and the entire length of the pant or jeans ends mid way through the hip area. The hip area is generally larger on most women and having the low rise jeans end on the largest part of a women's body draws visual attention there. The total length of the jean is also shorter as it starts at the hip, again resulting in the visual appearance of a shorter leg.

 

An additional challenge of girls low rise jeans is that their centre back seam is also quite short. When someone wearing low-rise jeans bends over, it often reveals more of the buttock area than most of us want to see. A classic and humorous example of this is on Cath and Kim where Cath bends over to reveal a large proportion of bottom crack along with her gee string which has ridden significantly above the top of her low rise jeans. This also occurs when someone wearing low rider jeans sits down. There is just not enough fabric to cover the buttock area once bent and this is even more prevalent in super low rise jeans. This is a very unsightly scene even on the most magnificent of bodies. If a poll was conducted to find out how many people are quite turned off by "builders crack", I have no doubt the resounding majority of people do not wish to see buttocks revealed by low rider jeans.
Clearly then, while low-rise jeans are very comfortable, they do have some challenges when wearing them. These challenges though, can always be overcome with some simple techniques and ideas. For example, wearing a slightly longer fashionable T-shirt or cardigan will eliminate the builders crack problem whilst buying a size bigger rather than a size smaller can help eliminate the unsightly bulge above and below the low rise jeans top.

Low-rise jeans are manufactured in many styles, the tight version being the most popular. They also come in loose, baggy, flare and destroyed styles. The immense popularity of low-rise jeans has inspired manufacturers to make lowrise styles of other kinds of pants as well. Fits of any pair of jeans is determined by current styles, gender, and by the manufacturer. Some popular of the fits of the past and present have been the ankle cut, loose cut, straight cut, boot cut, baggy, slim fit boy cut, bell bottom/flare, saggy carpenter, original classic and skinny leg .Rises in jeans (the distance from the crotch to the waistband) range from the high-waisted to the superlow-rise. The lastest in jeans fashion are the low-rise jeans. These have a deliberately low-cut waist intended to sit low on, or below, the hips. Also known as lowcut jeans, hipsters, hip-huggers and lowriders, they are intentionally cut lower on the waist, thus covering less body on front (the belly) and the back. Usually these jeans sit at least three inches lower than the belly button.
The "rise" of jeans is determined by the distance between the crotch and the waist and is usually around 10 inches on the regular conventional pants. In contrast, lowrise jeans typically have a rise of about 6 inches. Several brandmanufacturers also highlight the feature by altering the rise of the zipper. They create pants with zippers far shorter than regular pants, usually between 2 and 3 inches, while some other manufacturers go to the extent of reducing the size of the zippers to1 inch , such as Dorinha Wear. The latter can also be classified as ultra lowrise jeans, and the small zipper no longer serves its traditional function, but rather becomes an embellishment and a display of fashion.
Although low-rise jeans came into existence as early as in the 1960s, their renewed popularity among young women, and the subsequent lower back tattoo trends they inspired, were one of the earliest phenomena that distinguished the popular fashion of the 2000s from that of the previous decade. Becoming aware that their underwear is no longer always hidden inside their pants, more people choose the underwear they wear more carefully, to show it off with their low-rise jeans. The thong is most in vogue as it is paired with the lowrise jeans by many. It exposes more skin than it covers and is worn more for fashion than as an article of utility. The conventional panty is also still worn regularly under the lowrise jeans. Another fashion trend is to wear no underwear at all.
Tattoos placed on the lower belly or back are very popular with wearers of low-rise jeans. While the regular above-the- navel pants would normally not have displayed a tattoo on those spots, it now becomes visible and also very attractive, especially when in a semi-revealed state.
The fashion trend of stretch, tight and low rise jeans has had its enemies. In 2003, Dr. Malvinder S. Parmar's study revealed that wearing tight lowrise jeans puts unnecessasary pressure on a sensory nerve, which can cause pain and paresthesia in the nerve's area of distribution. This condition is known as Meralgia paresthetica and shows symptoms of a tingling or a burning sensation some of the thigh muscles. The problem with previously examined patients was resolved when they avoided wearing tight, low-rise jeans, and recovery took about 4 to 6 weeks.
You like being stylish. Fashion to you is your confidence incarnate. You smell great and love being good draped in the latest apparel. The smiles from passerby’s—the respect and attention—provide a little air under your feet.

And for the most part, you’ve been able to maintain your unique sense of fashion—wearing just about anything that you wanted to wear—even though you are a little bigger than you’d like to be.

Then low-rise jeans showed up on the scene…

Truth be told, nothing turns men’s heads faster than a sexy woman wearing low-rise jeans. We’ve seen stars from Britney to Beyonce rocking low-rise jeans, and the fashion magazines are full of impossibly thin women lounging around showing off way more of their torso than jeans have ever allowed women do before.

But did you catch the key phrase there?

Impossibly thin.

If you’ve got so much as an ounce of fat around your waist and hips you’re going to be little miss muffin top, always pulling down your shirt to cover the bulges.

Sad to say, low-rise jeans simply are not a style everyone can pull off.  You’ve got to have a flat stomach, and no love handles. And it sucks because they can look good—really good—on the right body.

However, if you have a little around the middle to hold onto, there is still hope for you yet! Let’s take a look at what you can do to drop a few pounds and look your best in the hottest style.

1. Drink a lot of water. 

Drinking water—especially if you add a lemon—is a great detox method. It flushes out all the waste in your system—resulting in a leaner tummy area. It’s recommended to drink about 100 ounces of water a day for weight loss.

2. Take yoga. 

Yoga makes you lean and mean, and will give your silhouette a sleeker look. Also, yoga is just plain good for you—body and soul. Don’t worry if you’re a beginner. Chances are, your local yoga studio or gym will have classes that teach you the basics. And don’t worry about getting “Madonna arms” either—none of us has the kind of time necessary to devote to that much yoga.

3. Cut the alcohol.

They don’t call it a “beer belly” for nothing!  If you’ve been knocking back the brews with your friends, time to knock it off. At the very least, have a vodka or gin and tonic, and nurse it.

4. Cut down on carbs. 

Bread, pasta, chips, fries, and hash browns are on the no-no list if you want to get into those low-rise jeans. 

5. Get your heart beating.

What? It’s beating right now! (Hopefully!) This is more about getting it really pumping, with some nice cardio work. For the best results, try swimming—it is a great cardio workout, plus the water gives you resistance training.
