Ms. Futakami pioneered the framework fashion method, which differentiates women’s physiques into the three types of straight, wave-like, and natural. She currently supervises framework fashion columns of numerous fashion magazines. Her latest book, which translates as “Rules for Stylish All-UNIQLO Looks,” is a must-read and out now!

WAVE TYPE
What are the features of a wave-type?

Willowy, delicate physique. Body lines that follow gentle curves. Delicate skin quality that suggests a softer, less muscular body.

1. HIGH RISE SKINNY ANKLE JEANS

Go with these skinny jeans to bring out the curved body lines of your wave-type figure! Their fabric provides a superb level of hold that sculpts flattering lines, owing to the weft’s elastic yarn. Stretchy, slender jeans like these tend to look better on your willowy frame than those with loose cuts do.

COORDINATING TIP: USE A FASHION SWEATER
TO CRAFT A GORGEOUS LOOK

Top off the straightforward skinny jeans with a sweet and gorgeous touch by opting for this fluffy mint green sweater, which has an adorable knit. Wave-type frames tend to be bottom-heavy, so you’ll get a great-looking balance when you wear a sweater that’s snug around your neck and draw attention upward.

2. ULTRA STRETCH JEANS

The model boasting the most amount of stretch in UNIQLO’s jeans lineup, the ultra stretch jeans are perennially popular classics. The cut-off model now comes in new colors, too! These jeans also have a slender form, so they’re ideal for wave-type figures. Even though they have a skinny cut, they offer great, soft-feeling comfort.

COORDINATING TIP: WEAR AN AIRY BLOUSE OVER
TOP TO CREATE A GENTLE LOOK

Pair this charming blouse to the slender ultra stretch jeans to create an airy, feminine look. When women with wave-type bodies wear clothing made of stiff fabrics, it often looks as though the clothes are wearing the wearer. To avoid such an appearance, select soft fabrics. And be sure to choose peripherals with delicate designs.

STRAIGHT TYPE
What are the features of a straight-type?

A physique with depth and suggesting muscle. Well-defined body lines. Supple skin.

1. U WIDE-FIT CURVED JEANS

Straight-type figures appear classic and have depth, so if that’s your figure, consider wide indigo jeans. Straight-type frames tend to be top heavy, yet a great balance is still yours even when you wear high-rise jeans. The jeans’ wide silhouette is also fantastic at producing great-looking legs, gradually curving toward the hems.

COORDINATING TIP: TUCK THE SHIRT IN AND SHIFT
TO A CLEAN-LOOK COORDINATE

This cool and clean coordinate results when you tuck a striped shirt into the high-rise jeans. Because straight-type bodies have depth, clothing can easily lose their form and appear rough. To avoid this, stay clear of silhouettes that bring out unflattering body lines.

2. SLOUCH TAPERED ANKLE JEANS

These jeans have a relaxed fit that’s loose around the hips. The muscular lines and the tighter skin of straight-type figures tend to produce a slightly plumper appearance, but the jeans’ tapered silhouette does an excellent job at keeping them out of sight. The ankle-length cut reveals ankles as the name suggests to produce a good balance with the smart and sharp appearance of the straight-type body’s lower legs.

COORDINATING TIP: GET AN ELEGANT APPEARANCE
WITH A TAILORED JACKET

Hang a navy tailored jacket on your shoulders to infuse your jeans look with a trad feel. Straight-type frames have obvious body lines, so sharp colors look great on women with such figures! Go with a vivid, fuchsia pink to bring a stylish offbeat element to a classic look.

NATURAL TYPE
What are the features of a natural-type?

A stylish body with a square overall frame. Big, thick bones; prominent joints. Neither particularly muscular nor fleshy.

1. HIGH-RISE SUPER WIDE JEANS

These contemporary wide-silhouette jeans are ideal for natural-type figures and their solid bone structures. If you have a natural-type figure, you’ve probably discovered it’s easy to get a great look with casual items. Chances are, jeans that are slightly rough look better on you than do clean-look jeans.

COORDINATING TIP: FOSTER A MATURE FEEL BY PAIRING
WIDE JEANS AND A COARSE-KNIT SWEATER

A super stylish feel is yours when you pair a loose top to loose bottoms. This muted monochrome arrangement of off-white jeans and a beige sweater is perfect for the fit appearance of natural-type builds! Go with pumps with chunky heels to bring a dashing touch to your feet as well

2. BELTED PLEATED JEANS

These belted jeans have a stylish paper bag design that produces definition in looks. They’re made of a cotton fabric that’s smooth to the touch, so they don’t feel rough and they look trim even when the belt is tightened. Their loose, laid-back silhouette is ideal for natural-type figures.

COORDINATING TIP: WEAR A JERSEY JACKET TO BRING AN ELEGANT,
LAID-BACK FEEL TO YOUR DENIM LOOK

Take the stylish feel of your jeans look to the next level by opting for this relaxed jersey jacket. Remember to let the collar hang loosely at back. Natural-type frames look great in rough and tumble fabrics and items, so these pleated jeans are perfect. Roll up the hems in a rough manner, and bring out a laid-back feel.
