I Haven't Worn Skinny Jeans in Years—This Denim Trend Occupies My Brain Now
While I understand that skinny jeans won't ever entirely be "out," as they're still considered a classic denim silhouette for many, I haven't worn them in years. A style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity and will continue to thrive this season. Yes, I'm talking about loose, straight-leg jeans—more specifically, the immensely wide-leg silhouettes. Denim isn't what you think of when you think of runway, but many coveted designers have been adding pairs to their collections over the past few years. Valentino sent Kaia Gerber onto the grounds of Château de Chantilly in wide-leg jeans for its 2023 couture runway show. Bottega Veneta had the fashion set in a tizzy when the brand created jeans crafted out of leather, and even Jonathan Anderson designed ultra-high-waisted jeans among drapey dresses at Loewe.
Among the runway, social media feeds, and street style, the love for wide-leg jeans is everywhere you look. Below, I've highlighted this trending denim cut as seen on the runways and found more everyday visual inspiration showcasing how fashion people are wearing loose-fitting jeans. With that in mind, keep scrolling for a range of outfit ideas and to shop the best-selling denim on the market right now.
