Winter Denim Trends 2020: Best To Shop

The Four Denim Trends To Invest In For Your Post-Isolation Wardrobe

As the end of quarantine draws nearer, we need to say goodbye to our loungewear, and say hello to a post-isolation wardrobe. After all, it's time to consider how we're going to squeeze into our favourite pair of figure-hugging jeans after months spent on the couch.

With any new season, comes new trends. And while it may seem redundant to be focusing on new trends, denim is the perfect way to transition from your at-home attire to your working-at-the-office wardrobe. Besides, when it comes to winter fashion, denim is a must-have.

Thankfully, this year's denim trends are all about bringing old trends back to life—revisiting cuts and washes from season's past. Below, we've rounded up the four trends you should invest in for your post-isolation wardrobe and where you can shop them.

Light Wash Denim

While light wash denim may give you flashbacks to your younger, more wardrobe-limited years, the light blue shade is certainly making a comeback. It's normal to gravitate towards darker colours as the months get colder, but if you're after some summertime inspiration, look no further than light wash denim. A true classic, cult-favourite brands like Levi's have been perfecting the classic hue for years, so why not integrate it into your look and bring some life to your winter wardrobe.

The Flared And Bootleg Cut

You read that correctly: bootleg jeans are back. If you're ready to give your wardrobe a '60s makeover or if you're just looking to elongate your legs, boot-cuts are the way to go. With designers like Celine, Marc Jacobs and Gucci all bringing the style back to life, the flared denim silhouette is set to be huge. Bring some extra length to your legs with a high-waist fit, brought in with a narrow belt.

The Front Seam

While it may sound avant-garde, denim with front seams and ribbing are the hottest trend this winter. Popular on the Spring/Summer 2020 runways, the style adds interest and draws the eye up, creating an elongating visual effect. Wear the trend in a variety of silhouettes, from skinny to paper-bag, add some intrigue to your wardrobe with this deconstructed style.

Short And Cropped

While you may have thought that we left the knee-length denim shorts back in 2004, you're sorely mistaken. In fact, the short and cropped trend even includes culottes or cropped wide-leg styles. Seen all over the runway, the trend plays with proportions, by styling the denim with knee-high boots, mules or strappy sandals—once the weather warms up, of course.
