1. Cargo Jeans
Cargo pants have been popular among the fashion crowd since last fall. This summer, there will be an even bigger focus on cargo jeans as a forward denim choice.
2. Long Denim Skirts
Maxi skirts, in general, are trending hard this season, so the denim maxi will be highly relevant. Plus, it can be dressed up or down.

You probably already guessed that baggy and relaxed jeans would be on this list since they’ve been key denim trends as of late. The ’90s-inspired silhouette will still be a top look for summer.
4. Embellished/Reworked Denim Jackets
Reworked denim jackets in relaxed silhouettes and embellished styles will have a moment this summer as a chic layering option.
5. Relaxed Ecru/White Jeans
Ecru and classic white jeans will bring a fresh feel to a summer look, especially in that trending looser cut.
