A trusty pair of denims that suit your body are an absolute must-have in your wardrobe. Whether you're out running errands, or heading out for a party, your jeans can be dressed up and down and last you for years when maintained well (that means you don't wash them as often.) However, you don't have to pick denims that stick to your body and make you uncomfortable. You can get your hands on super comfy ones too. Before you shop for some, here are 15 different types of jeans every woman must own in her wardrobe.

Pro Tip: Guide to buying jeans.

Skinny Jeans

Hear us out, skinny jeans can be super comfy if you pick ones that are actually your size instead of sizing them down. They're form-hugging and go well with almost every top out there giving you a sleek silhouette. Did you know that they were the preferred choice of trousers among French royalty? They're versatile, and are great with crop tops as they are with your favourite Chikankari kurta.

Bootcut Jeans

You've probably seen pictures of your parents donning a pair of bootcut jeans in their heyday. They were first worn by cowboys and farm folk so their boots can easily fit inside the flare, and hence the name. The style has made a comeback and is perfect for folks who love some flamboyant element in their outfits. Choose one with slightly lesser flare at the bottom and pair it with a crisp blouse and a shoulder bag to complete a boujee ensemble.
