6 short women share their short-girl jeans recs and you're officially sorted.

If you’re 160cm-tall and under, I can bet that at least once in your lifetime, you’ve stood in a changeroom, profusely sweating after trying on different pairs of denim that just didn't fit right.

Finding the perfect pair of jeans is hard enough as it is, but when you’re someone of shorter stature, that challenge switches to impossible mode.

Watch: Inside My Wardrobe - My Top 10 Pairs Of Jeans. Post continues below.

Either you’re left with a pool of fabric at the ankles, or distressed details that hit you anywhere but your knees. And don’t even get us started on the whole waist situation. WHY does it fit perfectly everywhere, only to have a giant gap around the stomach? Urgh.

Anyway, the point is, it’s rough. 

But before you give up completely and resort to wearing dresses or any other clothing item that doesn’t blatantly discriminate because of your height, you need to check out these recommendations from the petite gals on the Mamamia team.

These ladies have tried a lot of jeans throughout their adult lives, and they've finally found the pairs they can rely on. No gaping or excess material here. These jeans are perfect for girlies 5'3 and under.
