Denim Fit Is Everything
You can spend 950 EGP on the most beautiful pair of jeans in Egypt — but if the fit is off, none of it matters. At NOMINA, fit is non-negotiable. Every denim piece in our collection starts with a specific silhouette vision and is tested across multiple body types before it reaches the store.
This guide tells you exactly how to find your perfect NOMINA denim size.
How to Measure Your Waist
All NOMINA denim is sized by waist measurement in centimetres. Use a soft tape measure around the narrowest part of your torso — usually just above the belly button. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and breathe normally. Don't pull the tape tight.
That number in centimetres is your waist size. Use our complete Size Guide to match it to your NOMINA size.

Between Sizes? Size Up
Our high-waist cut creates natural compression. If you're between two sizes, the larger size will give you the most flattering, comfortable result without restricting movement.
The High-Rise Difference
The NOMINA Basic Flare Jeans and Ash-Black Flare Jeans sit at the natural waist — significantly higher than most mid-rise jeans. This is intentional: the high waist elongates the leg, creates definition at the smallest point of the torso, and gives the flare silhouette its iconic proportion.
If you're new to high-waist denim, trust the fit guide and size up if unsure. First-time high-waist wearers consistently report that the fit feels more secure and flattering than they expected.
