Anti–Skinny Jeans

Loose jeans (aka anti-skinny jeans) offer an incredibly laid-back look, as Kendall Jenner points out here. We’ve talked a bit about this year’s baggy denim trend and found that the fashion among our readers is quite polarizing. This Agolde pair received the most praise from this year’s entire denim range and also makes the most comfortable pair. Browse below our top picks of loose jeans.

Skinny Jeans 2.0

If you haven’t learned about skinny jeans ‘ new wave, let’s get you quick. My colleague Allyson Payer was the first to see Victoria Beckham wearing the skinny jeans below, and AP pointed out how the model is a new type of skinny jeans: essentially a combination of slim and straight jeans but lower than conventional straight cuts through the calf and ankle. Beckham has even shown that with any form of heels you can wear the new style. Browse below our favorite 2.0 skinny jeans.

High(er)-Rise Heights

High-rise jeans will reign as a classic denim style forever, and this year we see brands taking it to the next level, increasing inseam measurements and debuting silhouettes with names such as “pinch waist” and “ribcage” jeans. Both styles are examples of designs that are designed to hit your frame as high as possible to concentrate on your waist. Store underneath the right high(er)-rise jeans.
