Women's Lexa Jeans

Women's Lexa jeans wear Pepe Jeans London's most defined ultra-high rise, with a fitted top block that sits the waist above the belly button and a straight leg that falls without tapering to the hem. A vintage-inspired cut that brings back the classic nineties proportion, built for a figure that's streamlined from the waist up. The range works both rigid cotton and Tencel blends, in washes from mid stonewash to deep black.

Ultra-high rise: this silhouette's signature

The ultra-high rise sits the waist several centimetres above the hip bone, well higher than a classic high rise. This height lets you tuck in tees or jumpers without them riding up through the day, while visually lengthening the torso through the extended leg line. The fitted top block that comes with this rise avoids the excess fabric at the waist common on other, less well-built high-rise cuts.

Straight leg: why it suits every figure

The straight leg that follows the ultra-high rise keeps the same width from hip to hem, with no skinny-level taper or flare-level flare. That balance makes Women's Lexa jeans flattering across different builds, since it neither tightens excessively nor adds visual volume at the thigh. That's one reason this silhouette has become a repeat favourite in the brand's women's denim.

Fabric: from rigid cotton to Tencel

Some versions of this range carry Tencel fibres blended with cotton, giving a softer fall and a less rigid touch than classic denim, without losing the ultra-high rise's structure. This material combination ties back to Pepe Jeans London's heritage, born on Portobello Road market in 1973.

Styling Women's Lexa jeans

A cropped top and heeled boots make the ultra-high rise the star of the look, no extra accessory needed. By day, a tucked-in shirt and white trainers hold the same proportion in a more relaxed register, from Soho to Piccadilly.

The firmness of the fabric at the waist and the straight, clean fall of the leg stand out the moment you try them on.
