Guess Denim Buying Guide

Jeans have become a staple of almost any wardrobe. They can make an outfit very casual or they can be used when you want to look nice, depending on the color and style you choose. Denim is weaved with two different threads and is a very stiff material, so it is common for manufacturers to wash it prior to selling it, which provides flexibility and fades the color. If you see a dry or raw denim, then it has not been washed in advance. Depending on the style, manufacturers may also distress the jean in order to create a ripped or worn look. It is very common in today's market to also see denim that has been mixed with spandex to make it more flexible. With Guess denim, you will find high-quality denim in great styles and colors to make any outfit remarkable.

 

Guess Denim Washes and Colors

When you shop for Guess denim, pay attention to the washes and colors of the jeans, so you can find one that fits with your style and needs. Denim color comes through dying the cotton in indigo dye. The cotton is dyed, allowed to dry, and then dyed again until the desired color is reached. The more times it is dyed, the darker the denim color. Once the cotton is dyed, the thread is used to weave the denim material.

Light

Light denim is denim that has not been dyed very much. It is a very casual wash, typically worn with T-shirts or other casual tops. They work best with bright colors; since they are a lighter color themselves, the contrast provides more style. As it is a very casual look, it is more appropriate for casual settings like hanging out with friends, relaxing outdoors, running errands, or going to school.

Medium

Medium denim is a nice balance between dark and light denim. It is versatile but typically will work more in casual rather than dressy occasions. You can wear them paired with nice tops for a dress casual event, but they are not as nice as dark denim. If you are looking for just one wash to provide the widest range of wears, then medium denim is the best option.

Dark

Dark colored jeans have been dyed the most and provide a very stark contrast to any color. They can easily be dressed up with the right top and shoes. The dark color also provides a more slimming look than light denim. Dark denim can fade over time, so you should take care when washing your dark denim items.

Colored

You can also find colored denim. These are jeans and other denim items made with the same material but dyed colors other than the standard indigo. Depending on trends, you can find all kinds of bright colors, like red, purple, yellow, and even white. Printed patterns are also sometimes in style.

 

Styles of Guess Denim

When shopping for Guess denim, you have your choice of styles. Although you can find denim skirts, jackets, vests, and shirts, the main denim style is jeans. There is more than one cut of jeans for both men and women, however, and you should understand the difference between the different cuts so you can make sure you get the right style for your body figure and achieve the look you want.

Women's Styles

When purchasing designer jeans, you want to ensure you order the right size. Measure your pants size, especially the inseam and waist for men's pants, and order based on those measurements. You should also consider the rise to help you decide where you want the jeans to hit. The standard measurement is from the crotch to the waistband. Low-rise jeans will hit under the hips and may not be flattering on everyone. You can typically find jeans in different lengths, so also take that into consideration. Women should consider the shoes they will wear with the jeans, as jeans should just skim the ground when the wearer stands.
