The high-waisted flare jean, Parisian style
A high-waisted flare jean features a defined waist, a fitted line through the hips, and a leg that flares towards the hem. The silhouette is elongated, and the legs seem to go on forever. At Nathalie Dumeix, this 1970s-born cut is crafted like a couture piece, with months of pattern-making and model-making to ensure the jeans fit just right.
Five styles, five looks
- The Jeanne: our iconic style, nicknamed the “butt-enhancing trousers,” with its fitted cut and slightly flared leg.
- The Judy: a high waist, an endless leg, and a double pocket with mini flaps, in a soft fabric.
- The Joy: the most seventies, with a very high waist, fitted thighs, and a dramatic flare at the hem, with a decorative buckle on each side of the waist.
- The Joplin: a button fastening and patch pockets at the front and back, in blue or black denim.
- The June: a fitted line through the hips, a leg that flares towards the hem, and a cropped length.
How to wear flare jeans?
For daytime, opt for a fitted knit or a flowing blouse tucked into the waistband to accentuate the waist. In the evening, add heels: they elongate the legs even further and let the cut take centre stage. In terms of sizing, our pieces run slightly smaller than most brands, and the Joplin often requires one size up. Not sure? Write to us—we’ll give you personal advice.
