Think back to the late ’90s. We watched Friends religiously, Green Day T-shirts were all the rage, nu-metal culture was on the rise, shoes came in the form of Etnies or DCs and you couldn’t move for the amount of Dickies and Carhartt being worn by the nation’s teenagers. Today, however, I want to talk about the ’90s jeans we all wore. From my memory, the predominant look was an ultra baggy style had to be so long and loose they soaked up any amount of water on the floor. If it rained, you would inadvertently end up with a pair of two-tone jeans. And much like other Y2K trends, these trousers are back. Right now, one pair in question is incredibly popular: Weekday’s Rail Mid Loose Straight Jeans. It’s easy to see why—this pair is ...

Out of all the styling content we produce on our site, I think it’s pretty evident that jean outfits are one of our favourites.

If I opened your denim drawer right now, I bet I could guess some of the key silhouettes stored inside—straight-leg jeans, skinnies and perhaps even an of-the-moment outlier like the “grandpa” cut. But what’s one style that probably hasn’t surfaced to the top of the pile as much lately? Flares. Sure, cropped flares have been, well, cropping up over the last few years, but the more polarising bootcut and bell-bottom styles (aka anti–skinny jeans) haven’t been as popular… until recently. Designers from Alberta Ferretti to Dior reintroduced fresh flare jeans in their autumn/winter 2021 collections as the next It denim pick for the forward set. And celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie and Harry Styles have already been following suit in ’...

If I opened your denim drawer right now, I bet I could guess some of the key silhouettes stored inside—straight-leg jeans, skinnies, and perhaps even an of-the-moment outlier like those “grandpa” cuts. But what’s one style that probably hasn’t surfaced to the top of the pile as much as of late? Flares. Sure, cropped flares have been well, cropping up, over the last few years, but the more polarising bootcut and bell-bottom styles (aka anti–skinny jeans) haven’t been as popular… until recently.  That’s right, designers from Alberta Ferretti to Dior reintroduced fresh flared jeans in their autumn/winter 2021 collections as the next It denim pick for the forward set. And fun fact, celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie, and Har...

As much as we’d like to stretch out the bare-leg weather we’ve been having, we’re just a few weeks away from the forecast feeling very autumnal. To prepare for the inevitable cold snap, instead of floaty dresses and slip skirts, we’ll be building our looks around jeans, for there is no item more up to the challenge of swiftly transitioning you into the new season.  After all, jeans are timeless, easy to style and comfortable, and the outfit options are endless, making them the perfect day-to-day throw-on.

We devote a lot of our day to writing about denim, be it the latest trends we spot on the runway or the new jeans sweeping the fashion scene. As it’s one of the hardest-working items in our wardrobes, we consider this time well spent. Avid readers will know we’ve already given you the low-down on the need-to-know jeans, but now, as we find ourselves on the cusp of autumn, we’re starting to see some fresh new trends emerge, with one throwback jeans style proving increasingly popular in style circles. With wider-leg options coming back in general, it was inevitable that flares would also make a return—we just didn’t predict how impactful they would be. Over the last few weeks, we’ve spotted ’70s-style flare denim everywhere. From the st...

I’ve often gravitated towards a more minimalist style, so my wardrobe consists of chic basics that I can rewear. While my style tends to vary based on my mood, I like wearing neutrals the most, as I find it easier to mix and match different styles together to dress a piece of clothing up or down. That said, the item I want to talk about today is white jeans. It can often be a divisive piece. For a long time, a lot of people have been frightened of wearing them, not least because they can get dirty quickly. They can also be off-putting because some are unsure of how to style them and believe they’re only good for the summer months. But I have one pair of white jeans, and they are so versatile and have taken me through each season. The straight fit from Nanushka is my i...

Ah, Gen Z. The generation that’s coined the term cheugy, likes to do a strange frozen-honey challenge on TikTok and reminds millennials that skinny jeans are absolutely not the style to wear right now. For clarification, I haven’t worn my drainpipes for some time. I have a pair of the Topshop Jonis stashed in my wardrobe, which I will never part with (just in case), but other than that, I’ve always been a fan of a looser fit. In fact, during my teenage years in the late ’90s and early ’00s, the baggy jeans I lived in were so long they’d often suck up a whole puddle’s worth of water every time it rained. What with Gen Z’s propensity for Y2K trends, could these floor sweepers be back?  Thankfully, things are a little more sophist...

Ready for some fresh outfit inspiration? While, yes, high summer is still here, I can’t help but look ahead to autumn dressing—and plan my outfits accordingly. The arrival of autumn brings plenty to be excited about from sumptuous sweaters to layered looks but at the moment, I only have denim on the brain. Maybe it’s because I’ve hardly been wearing jeans at all this summer (hello, hot weather) but truth be told, my outfit rotation is really craving some good old jean ensembles. If like me, you could use some fresh inspiration to fuel your autumn outfits, you’ve come to the right place. Ahead, take a look at the below 11 blue-jean outfits that are fresh for the upcoming season but still low-key and easy to re-create with many of the pie...

Printed jeans are having a resurgence right now, along with other Y2K favourites such as body chains and pink sunglasses. We’re not just talking about leopard print either, but wave prints, checkerboard and elaborate swirls. When it comes to printed denim there is one place that really excels—Free People. The brand had a pop-up store at Wilderness Festival this weekend (and kindly invited us to join them) and the printed jeans were a particular favourite. India Edit wore the wavey jeans by Ragged Priest, which come in several colours including mint, peach and a grass green. However these jeans aren’t just for festivals or for those with a Tik-Tok aesthetic—these are jeans our editors have been raving about for weeks. Styled with a simple jumper or a white T-shirt ...

I can recall a time, around 2008 I think it was, when black skinny jeans were life. They were one of the coolest things to wear; perfect with the influx of bold-shouldered Balmain rip-off blazers and spiked platform shoes fashion editors favoured, cool with a Breton and ankle boots to get that French-girl look, and great on a night out with a nice top. Like many other basic denim styles, they have become a relied-upon but oft forgotten part of our wardrobe. It’s been a long time since I felt excited about wearing a pair of black jeans, and I’m pretty sure the ones I did own (a nice little cropped flare from Frame) are languising somewhere in the back of my closet. No more shall you be overlooked, my inky jeans! Because in the past few days a flurry of celebrity arbiters of...

In the fashion calendar, September is a time traditionally associated with newness. Autumn collections arrive in store, and fashion week gives us a first look at emerging trends for the following year. But for us, this shift in season is often about refining our wardrobes and investing in classic, versatile staples. Weekday’s new-in section is bursting with tie-dye and trippy prints, but it’s the new denim that’s really grabbing our attention. Weekday arguably has the best denim offering on the high street, delivering amazing quality for under £60 a pair. The brand has mastered classic cuts, and its Rowe straight-leg, high-waisted jeans are simply perfect. Although Weekday tends to focus on durable, classic cuts, it does t...
