How to Find Your Perfect Fit in Regular, Petite, Plus & Tall

Why Finding the Right Jeans Fit Matters

Finding jeans that fit is about more than numbers on a tag—it’s about discovering a pair that moves with you, flatters your shape, and boosts your confidence every time you put them on. At NYDJ, we design denim for every woman, with inclusive sizing that covers regular (00–18), petite (0P–18P), plus (14W–28W), and tall fits. Each pair features our Lift Tuck® Technology, ensuring comfort and confidence no matter your shape or size. Here’s how to choose the fit that feels made for you.

Understanding Women’s Jeans Sizes at NYDJ

Standard sizing often leaves women frustrated—too long, too short, or uncomfortable in all the wrong places. That’s where NYDJ stands apart.

• Regular Size Jeans Fit (00–18): Designed for women of average height, with balanced proportions in inseam and rise.
  

• Petite Fit (00P–18P): Specifically for women 5’4” and under, with shorter inseams and adjusted rises to match smaller frames.
  

• Plus Size Fit (14W–28W): Crafted with extra room where you need it most, plus superior stretch and support for curves.
  

• Tall Women Fit: Available in select styles with longer inseams), ensuring hem and rise proportions work for women 5’9” and taller.

Regular, Petite, Tall & Plus – What Sets Them Apart?

Regular Size Jeans

Our Regular collection (00–18) is designed for women 5’5”–5’8”. Popular fits include the Sheri Slim and Marilyn Straight, versatile styles that work from day to night.

Petite Fit Jeans

Petite jeans are more than just shorter—they’re proportioned for women under 5’4”. Ideal if regular jeans often pool at your ankles or the rise feels too high, they solve the issue of hemming without sacrificing style.

NYDJ Petite Best-Sellers:

• Marilyn Straight Petite – timeless and versatile.
  

• Blake Slim Flared Petite – elongates smaller frames.
  
  

Tall Women Fit

If you’re 5’9”+, you know the struggle: jeans that end above your ankle or rises that feel uncomfortably low. NYDJ’s jeans ensure coverage and proportion. Tall jeans are perfect if regular jeans hit above your ankle or the waist sits too low. Styles like the Teresa Wide Leg and Barbara Bootcut offer extra length without compromising on style.

Plus Size Fit Jeans

Designed for curves, NYDJ’s Plus Size Jeans collection (14W–28W) includes tailored rises, stretch fabric, and shaping technology that flatters from every angle. The result: jeans that move with you and highlight your best features.

NYDJ Plus  Best-Sellers:

• Barbara Bootcut Plus – balances curves with a leg-lengthening silhouette.
  

• Briella Shorts Plus – warm-weather essential with curve-friendly comfort.
  
  

How to Find Your Perfect Fit

Not sure which category is right for you? Here’s how to measure:

1. Measure Your Inseam: From the inside of your thigh down to your ankle.
   

2. Measure Your Rise: From the crotch seam to the waistband. Petite styles adjust rise so jeans don’t sit too high, while plus sizes are tailored for comfort at the waist.
   

3. Check Proportion, Not Just Height: If jeans often feel too long, you may need petite sizing. If they ride up, tall might be best.
