People got really hyped up about Y2K. It was the turn of the century, you could finally listen to that Prince song and mean it, plus there was a lot of talk how there was a computer bug that was going to turn everything off at the stroke of midnight as our PCs wouldn’t be able to understand the switch from 1999 to 2000. While programming disasters were (mostly) averted, I can’t say the same for fashion. Y2K fashion is a particular sort of era—sure, it was a simpler time when people could still wear jeans or a nice-top-and-trousers to a red carpet event but there were fedora hats, Juicy Couture trackies and lots of pointy-toe heels that everyone seemed to wear with bootcut jeans (shudders). The thing is Y2K trends are booming. Thanks to Gen Z, who didn’t experience the trends the first...

Whether they’re trialling this season’s divisive colour trend, stepping out with the latest hot-off-the-press designer bag or championing an undiscovered label, fashion girls love being ahead of the curve. The moment something reaches peak style saturation, you’ll often see them doing a full 180 in order to hold onto their individuality. This season, this has manifested in the reemergence of baggy jeans, aka the denim style you thought you left behind in the noughties. Sorry about that. Brought on by straight-leg jeans’ proliferation both on social media and in the general public over the last few years, this throwback style has garnered a steady stream of fans amongst Instagram’s trendsetters, who have relishe...

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 ...

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 ’...

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...

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...
