SG here, loved the skinny Jean trend for the past 15 years and now I’m seeing is phase out. I’m still happily sporting my high-wasted, cropped skinny jeans/pants, but I’d love to add a few pants into my collection that won’t seem dated in the next few years. Anything flared, too relaxed, too long, or bootcut/loose cut at the bottom hem just makes me look squat or disproportionate.

I’d love to find high-wasted pants or jeans that are a little looser or pleated that are sinched at the ankle but I can’t seem to find any...

What do you recommend or What do you go to as a SG? What am I overlooking or not experimenting with enough here?

Thanks in advance :)
