When you want extra support around your stomach, the best tummy-control jeans can hold you in without restricting your movement. Many are designed with built-in panels that act like shapewear, while others are high-waisted enough to smooth and snatch the belly—a feature that fashion experts say really matters. No matter your body shape, “a high rise will always elongate you and your midsection,” says Mark Peters, director of consumer experience and retail stores operations at denim brand NYDJ. To find your next favorite pair of women’s jeans, we polled our network of Glamour reviewers. Whether you’re looking for wide-leg bottoms; on-trend barrel-leg, classic straight-leg; or skinny jeans—we’ve got every type of pants that fit and feel like a dream to wear (all of which are either high- or mid-rise).
