Are these jeans flattering and suitable for me at 57?

Are these jeans flattering? They are a perfect fit , I am 5’2 and I haven’t worn jeans in years. I am old 57 for context and I am not sure if jeans are good at my age . They do feel really comfortable.

Interesting, the shape us great but I think they're too short

ThePoshUns · 10/04/2026 09:32

They look great on you,
you’re lovely and slim.

You can wear jeans at any age and you look very nice

JMSA · 10/04/2026 09:33

Omg, are you kidding?! You look bloody amazing in them! 💕

My mum is 79 and wears jeans. Why wouldn't you.

They are meant to cut off at the ankle, maybe they are a bit too short on me.

Yeah, they look alright.

Bestfootforward11 · 10/04/2026 10:31

You look amazing! X

They are not too short, they look like a deliberate and lovely crop. The jeans really suit you. I love jeans, and have probably about 20 pairs.

You look fab,

im really sad to hear lk Bennet is shutting down, i used to live in their clothes for work about 15 years ago. But they just lost their way, everything became so dated. Like fashion and trends moved on and they didn’t. It’s such a shame.

OceanSafari · 10/04/2026 11:13

They look fab! I wouldn't put emphasis on age when it comes to picking outfits, rather what suits your shape and lifestyle

LeftBoobGoneRogue · 10/04/2026 11:17

They look great @Stylehelp2345

examworries2026 · 10/04/2026 11:18

You look really good and they’re a very modern shape

FiveShelties · 10/04/2026 11:24

You look great @Stylehelp2345

I will be 70 this year and love my jeans.

Isthatarealname · 10/04/2026 11:26

Heya I'm a stylist! The photo is a little dark but they look great to me. Some people don't like the crop but this is a good length as you can still see a little bit of ankle if you were to wear them with trainers, which will elongate your legs.

Ghostspritz · 10/04/2026 11:36

I think the whole outfit looks great. I’d call those ankle grazers. I recent returned some trousers that were supposed to be that length but were too long.

DramaAlpaca · 10/04/2026 11:59

I'm a bit older than you, OP and I think you look great.

Freda69 · 10/04/2026 12:03

They look great - I’m way older than you and still wear jeans. I’m 5ft 2in and I wish I were as slim as you!

Middlechild3 · 10/04/2026 12:19

They look amazing!

Sallyischatting · 10/04/2026 23:19

@Stylehelp2345 May I ask what size they are ? They look fabulous on you but I’m not sure what they would look like in the size I need.

belcarra · 10/04/2026 23:23

you look great

Stylehelp2345 · 10/04/2026 23:55

@Sallyischatting They are size 26 the socks guide says it 6/8 and they are so comfortable which I don’t expect jeans to be.
