Wearing a good pair of jeans that hugs your figure in all the right places (without cutting off your blood circulation) can really make you feel like you've got the juice and the squeeze.
Your walk even changes; the one minute you're hobbling about like Vince McMahon...
And then suddenly, boom!
...you're strutting like Naomi Campbell.
But finding the perfect pair of tight jeans can sometimes be a conflicting task. On the one hand, we want a pair that fits like a glove and on the other, we still want to be able to breathe while wearing our booty's best friend.

So we shopped around and found these four brands which offer both aesthetics and functionality for every shape and size.
Levi's Women’s Shaping Series
These denims pretty much photoshop your figure, as they slim your tummy, lift your seat and lengthen your legs.
And selected 300 Series jeans are now also available in plus sizes - you can choose from straight, skinny or super skinny cuts. And these styles also include the Shaping Series technology that is designed to smooth and define your shape.
Yes, please!
Sissy Boy silhouette denims
Sissy Boy is well-known for its denim technologies such as 8th Wonder and Minus One, which really create desirable optical illusions for every body type. And that's probably why even petite girls like me swear by this brand when it comes to jeans.
But luckily they don't just cater for small girls as their sizes go up to size 16.
Shop figure-hugging Sissy Boy jeans from Spree now.
RE: sustainable denim
Affordable and environmentally friendly - it's a win-win!
These denims are processed using BCI cotton - a type of cotton produced from ethical farming methods.
For style and sex appeal with a conscience, shop these abrasion ankle skinny jeans, R450 from Woolworths.
G-Star Raw 3301 contour jeans
This one is for the high-end shopper who prefers investment pieces.
G-Star Raw is all about strategic and flattering pocket placement and that's exactly what you get when you treat yourself to a pair of their 3301 Contour denims.
The 3301 Contour waist offers both shape enhancing pockets and seams to help you achieve a curvy silhouette.
Yes to contouring our faces and our hips!
