Here at Madewell, we set the bar high with our better-than-vintage take on women’s vintage jeans. Our signature Perfect Vintage jeans have a flattering high-rise waist and a slightly tapered leg for that “my mom was a ‘90s supermodel” look.
When it comes to denim jeans, there's no one-size-fits-all option. Madewell’s vintage jeans sizing ranges from 23 to 33 and 14W to 28W with regular, petite, tall and taller inseams, as well as plus sizes and maternity jeans. When shopping for your perfect pair of women’s vintage jeans, you can choose according to fit, fabric, stretch, color wash, length, distress, price point and more. Select between mid-rise and high-rise, and straight-leg, wide-leg or flare. Vintage high-rise jeans are also available in our curvy cut, and are re-engineered for those with an hourglass figure. The design of our curvy jeans provides more room in the hips and a contoured band to prevent gapping at the waist.
For a chic look, pair our straight-leg Perfect Vintage jeans in tile white with a button-down shirt. Want a more casual feel? Opt for details like rips, raw hems or destruction and style with your favorite Birkenstocks and a crop tee. Slouchy wide-leg vintage jeans are perfect for traveling in comfort or for days spent chilling at home.
Next, let's talk about fabrics. For a bit of give, try our Heritage Stretch denim with a touch of elastane. This best-selling fabric has a great old-school look and a perfectly broken-in feel. Or, for even more softness and stretch, look out for cotton/TENCEL™ lyocell combos.
When it comes to color, there is no shortage of options. Your perfect pair of vintage high-rise jeans are available in white, black and every shade of indigo from pale blue Delora wash to darker washes like Hoover and Montcrest.
Mid-rise or high-rise, tapered leg or wide leg, a pair of Perfect Vintage jeans (or three) is essential. You can wear your women’s vintage jeans year-round and for any occasion. Dress them up with kitten heels and a leather jacket, or dress them down with sneakers and a crop tee. Shop the Madewell denim bar for your perfect pair.
