I tried on more than 50 denim styles to find the best jeans for women over 50

When it comes to buying jeans, we all agree on one thing - finding a pair that fits perfectly and makes you feel fabulous is like finding the holy grail! Shopping for the best jeans that are both versatile and flattering is no easy task, and while there are no hard and fast rules as to what makes the best jeans for women over 50, you may find that the styles you wore in your twenties no longer suit your lifestyle.

I've been a fashion editor and wardrobe stylist for over 25 years, and I know that a great pair of jeans will be the backbone of your over 50 capsule wardrobe. Traditional styles like straight leg, bootcut or slim fitting jeans are timeless and will work in any situation. Alternatively, you can inject personality and revamp your look by choosing a more contemporary denim silhouette, such as barrel leg, flared, or palazzo fits.
