The simple off-duty denim style everyone is wearing this spring
The baggier, the better
Over the past couple of years, baggy jeans have reigned supreme in the realm of everyday denim. With strong celebrity endorsement from street style icons like Tracee Ellis Ross, Hailey Bieber, and Dua Lipa wearing them on rotation, we truly can't help but love them.
This season, brands such as Balenciaga, Ahluwalia, Alaïa, and Coach have introduced their iterations of the must-have baggy jeans trends. From dark wash to white denim and even the controversial mud-wash from Acne Studios, there is no doubt that baggy jeans are here to stay.
Take cues from the experts and pair these jeans with a classic white T-shirt and espadrilles for a chic day-time look or a leather moto jacket and strappy heels at night.
With such an oversized silhouette, it can be daunting to find your perfect pair that feels comfortable and looks flattering. Thankfully, many brands across the high-street and luxury fashion sector have caught on to the vision that is baggy jeans. As someone who exclusively wears this style of denim five out of seven days a week, I consider myself a true baggy jean connoisseur. Usually puddling them over my everyday pointy flats, this style of denim is a key must-have for my transeasonal outfit formulas.
Below, find my top 12 styles that are sure to convince you to delve into the coolest denim silhouette this season.
