When it comes to denim trends, we're in an "anything goes" era. One day, there'll be reports that skinny jeans are back, and the next, it's the 2025 way to wear baggy jeans, then it's the best barrel-leg jeans to buy, then it's how French women are wearing straight-leg jeans. It's a lot to keep up with, but the takeaway is that you'll look cool in pretty much any style you wear in this day and age. Why am I bringing this up now? Two words: Margot Robbie.
Robbie just made a stop in London while promoting her new film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, and one of the looks she wore consisted of a tan Chanel top and jacket from the 2026 resort collection and, yes, jeans. But the denim trend she wore wasn't of the baggy or skinny variety. It was flared jeans, specifically a high-waisted pair with a wide, '70-inspired flared leg opening. In previous years, flares may have been considered dated, but for the entirety of 2025, the comeback of flares has been a hot topic. When It girls like Robbie wear them, they undoubtedly validate the trend. Since flares are typically quite long, it's the ideal denim style to wear with heels—just as Robbie did.
If you trust Robbie's taste (which you should, in my opinion), keep scrolling to shop a handful of the best flared jeans on the market.
