Not only are denims the most beloved fashion staple for generations, but this piece of clothing is also versatile enough to be paired effortlessly with other pieces and styled for any occasion.
Historically, modern denim jeans, as we know them today, were created in 1873 by tailor Jacob Davis and entrepreneur Levi Strauss, who added rivets for strength and function. Originally designed as workwear for miners, denim rose to fame in the 1950s when Hollywood icons like James Dean and Marlon Brando turned it into a symbol of youth rebellion. And by the 1970s, it had become a global fashion staple.
This year, denim has made a strong comeback with playful and aesthetic designs that go far beyond the classic blue jeans. From fashion runways to streetwear scenes, designers and style icons alike are reimagining denim in fresh and unexpected ways, inviting you to do the same.
So, here are the five denim outfit trends that you can adopt for your looks.
Denim-on-Denim
While there’s nothing wrong with matching your denim sets like in the early 2000s, famously dubbed the “Canadian tuxedo”, the new trend of double denim today involves a more intentional pairing. The recent trend now plays with mixing different shades of denim, such as combining vintage mid-blue with a dark or black wash, or you can style it as a coordinated outfit with denim shirts or tops paired with wide-leg jeans just like Hailey Bieber did in the above picture.
There’s also a range of new denim accessories you can pick, from Balenciaga’s denim bags to denim heels from Celine.
Skirts, Jeans & Outerwear
The rise of denim skirts, whether mini or maxi, is a clear indication that denim remains a strong fashion staple. Recent trends feature skirts with side slits, along with denim jackets and blazers that strike a balance between refined and relaxed. Denim jackets now come in oversized boxy fits with layered textures like the ones from Versace, while denim blazers have evolved into hybrid pieces that merge tailored silhouettes with casual ease, blurring the line between smart and laid-back style.
As for denim dresses, this cozy and versatile piece now appears in various styles, including flared and bootcut silhouettes. Meanwhile, long, loose jeans continue to be in demand, especially those with modern details like barrel-leg cuts, featuring a fitted waist and a curved, structured shape.
White Denim
Yes, you read that right… white denim is getting plenty of love this year too. This year-round favourite stands out for its cozy, relaxed wide-leg silhouettes that pair effortlessly with neutral or monochromatic outfits, much like the refined styles from Brunello Cucinelli. You can even mix and match your blue denim with white for a fresh contrast and a black handbag or shoes to complete the look.
White denim also got a major boost after many fashion enthusiasts embraced the idea of “winter whites,” and we couldn’t agree more. Its clean, minimalist tone makes it the perfect choice for travel or holiday looks, while softer shades like ivory and ecru are also taking the spotlight.
Indigo Denim
We’re not going for the polar opposite, but dark indigo denim is also one of the top trends for 2025. As seen in numerous luxury fashion house collections, fashion has shifted away from lighter washes and fully embraced darker tones: deep, saturated, inky indigos denim that look polished for both casual and formal occasions.
From sleek, tailored silhouettes to looser, wide-leg styles, dark indigo denim often plays with balance and proportion. For instance, if you’re wearing relaxed indigo jeans, pair them with more fitted and structured pieces like jackets or blazers for a refined contrast and you’re good to go.
