The Frame Le Jane Jeans Are Every Tall Woman’s Dream Pants—Here’s My Honest Review

Sizing on jeans can be tricky, especially considering that the fit often alters when the denim undergoes treatment to obtain certain washes. With this in mind, I consulted the size guide very carefully before selecting a size and happened to order the 27, which ended up feeling a bit too loose around the waist, bums and thighs, so I exchanged it for the 26-inch waist. For reference, I fluctuate between sizes 26 and 27, or 4 and 6, and found that opting for the smaller size gave me a bespoke fit with zero gaping at the waist.

While the brand notes that the 100 percent premium cotton denim is rigid, it will conform to your figure and mold to you like a second skin—seriously. It’s made from the softest material that you won’t find in vintage styles or lower quality denim. The denim does naturally stretch after multiple wears, and this is when I notice the jeans taking on extra room around the waistband that’s great for seconds at the dinner table, but not my cup of tea when it comes to looks, so I find that throwing them in the wash and letting them line dry gets them back in tip-top shape.

Waist, feel and overall fit aside, when it comes to length, these babies are the *ultimate* jeans for tall women. With a 34-inch inseam, they were designed to give legs for days. When I first tried them on, the hem pooled at my feet comically and I immediately knew they needed to get altered at the tailor. Most of the time, I’d return a pair of jeans right then and there, because who has the time or can justify the extra cost of a hemming? But when you come across a pair of jeans that look that unreal on your bum, waist and thighs…it’s an easy decision. I ended up hemming the inseam to 31 inches to wear with heeled booties, so that’s why you’ll notice that every look you’ll see me style it with below is with a type of heel or boot.

For days when I want to look put together but feel comfortable, I opt for the cozy route, which includes my softest chunky knit. No matter the fit, whether it’s cropped or oversize, any kind of knit in any color or pattern will look fab with them. Doing a quick French tuck and looping in a stylish belt to peep through the front is one of the easiest ways to elevate the denim. For an extra chic touch, don a pair of black heeled booties or go bold in a pop of color.

Basically my everyday uniform, a white blouse, boots and a jacket will always be a classic, no matter the occasion. It’s polished, refined and so simple to throw together on a whim. Bonus points if it’s a trench coat.

It’s no secret that suede jackets are having a moment, so what better way to show off your new jeans than with this trendy topper? Because of the elongating effect of the straight-leg silhouette, I find that the unlikely pairing is quite complementary.

I’m a sucker for a Canadian tuxedo, and Frame’s Le Jane jeans are practically begging to be paired with a denim button-down blouse. I like to really lean into the Western vibes when I wear this combo, so I’ll sport an animal print belt and my Everlane suede Outlaw boots as you’ll see in the image above.
