When it comes to denim trends, rises continue to get higher and higher. While lengths of nine inches and over (from inseam to waistline) are considered “high-waisted,” a crop of even higher waistlines (we’re talking 12.5 inches, here) has begun to pervade the zeitgeist. AGOLDE denim’s “pinch-waist jeans” are a particularly iconic (and perpetually sold-out) example of the trend, which you’re sure to see everywhere this summer—if you haven’t already spotted it cropping up, that is.
The ’90s-inspired pinch-waist style is comprised entirely of ultra-rigid cotton denim (read: zero stretch whatsoever), and is characterized by its strikingly rid-grazing rise (that has a slim fit and straight legs, to boot). This on-trend silhouette is basically the perfect fit for vintage fiends who’ve been hopelessly digging through thrift store bins to find something similar for years. What’s nice? The 2019 take on this very ’90s trend is figure-flattering—and much easier to come by. No more perusing the dusty shelves of your local thrift store week after week hoping to find “the one”—just head to your favorite e-tailer and hit “check out.”
Though Agolde is perhaps the most notable brand in the pinch-waist jeans space, they’re far from the only one. Levi’s most recent drop—the Ribcage Jean—has also been through the sold-out and restock cycle since it first launched earlier this year. The Ribcage features a 12 and 1/8 inch rise, with booty and hip-hugging fit that flows into a classic straight-leg cut. And for those of you worried that too-high-waisted jeans will swallow your frame, rest assured knowing the elevated rise has a lengthening effect, rather than a shrinking one.
Anyone who’s ever sported a pair of true vintage jeans to the office knows that while they photograph like a dream on Instagram, they’re not the most comfortable choice IRL. However, this contemporary take on the vintage-inspired style offer the best of both worlds; sleek structure with enough stretch to get you through the day? Yes, please.
