Hello to everyone reading this blog. This is Kiriyama from the Tokyu Plaza Ginza store.
The item we are introducing this time is a new type of denim that is set to continue into next spring and summer.
WIDE STRAIGHT 5POCKET PANT - DENIM
Item No. 80510850000
Colour. Indigo / Black
Size. 6 / 8 / 10 / 12
It is said that women's denim first appeared around 1930. It was worn as workwear for agricultural workers and by cowgirls on cattle ranches.
Around the start of World War II, women working in munitions factories and cotton mills also began to wear denim.
Denim first became a part of fashion and became popular in the 1950s, the golden age of Hollywood movies. Marilyn Monroe is said to have been one of the first to adopt it into her fashion.
This denim was inspired by the styles worn by Marilyn Monroe, who was known for her strong sense of style, especially in clothes that flattered her hips.
The waist is high, and it should be worn just below the ribs. We recommend a size that fits just right or a little tight, without any excess. It creates a beautiful line from the waist to the hips, and shows off a woman's curves.
The hem is rolled up a little longer, based on vintage materials.
Rolling up your pants is a way to adjust the length to fit your shoes, but there are also anecdotes about it. It's said that people used the folded hem as a pocket, or pressed cigarette butts into it to prevent forest fires. It's interesting, isn't it?

In recent years, loose-fitting has become the norm, so many people may be struggling to choose the right size. Our staff tried on different sizes, so please use this as a reference.
【Nakameguro store: Shuen / Height: 163cm】
Pay attention to the areas around the waist, such as the hips and groin, as these are the areas where you will most likely see differences with sizing.
I think Shuen's perfect size is 6. Since her fashion style is boyish, she prefers size 8, which doesn't show off her body lines.
Whether you wear this item in the exact size that it is designed to be will depend on your preferences and your fashion style.
【Kichijoji store: Yamamoto / Height: 165cm】
If we go by the concept of this item, I think Yamamoto's perfect size would be 6. She looks neat and sleek in size 8, but I personally think that size 6 looks better in terms of the sleekness around the waist and the way it lifts the hips.
I'm tall, so if I wear them full length I'll need to shorten the width of the cuffs. You can adjust the cuff width however you like.
【Tokyu Plaza Ginza: Kiriyama / Height: 162cm】
Finally, for me, I bought size 8, which is a bit tight, and it fits my body well. Size 10 was a bit loose, and looked a bit unfashionable.
Stretch or thin denim tends to show off your body lines because of the softness of the fabric, but this denim is made of thick 100% cotton fabric, so it doesn't show off any unnecessary body lines, which is what I personally like about it.

I'm sure there are some people who are reluctant to show off their waists or hips. I completely understand how you feel. But I want you to just take the plunge and try wearing them once. Once you do, you'll feel quite confident... I also feel a positive desire to wear these jeans in a cooler way.
