Denim, once a textile reserved for workwear and all things rugged has become a fashion staple in everyone’s closet. But this spring the best denim looks are much more than a pair of jeans.
Give your skinny jeans a rest this season and opt for a denim jumpsuit. Or trade in your go-to windbreaker for a lightweight denim trench.
The spring and fall runways were flooded with denim, from Vanessa Seward’s denim romper to Stella McCartney’s denim platform creepers. Carolina Herrera even created a denim ballgown.
If you’re sticking with jeans, the more voluminous the bell-bottoms, the more distressed, frayed or cropped, the bolder the fashion statement.
In the photo gallery above, you’ll find a few of our favorite looks.
