It just goes to show, that there’s a place for denim, no matter what your fashion preference may be.

Style Notes: The lighter hues of denim are taking a backseat to moodier, deep indigo tones this winter, as seen at Hermès, Christian Dior, and so much more. Wear them layered on top of one another for maximum impact. 

Style Notes: Okay, so not technically a trend, but straight-leg jean devotees will be pleased to hear that they were even more prevalent on the autumn/winter 2021 runways than they were in previous seasons. Get ready to have your pick of so many impressive pairs. 

Style Notes: If you live in denim, then you might want to consider taking your obsession up a notch with the addition of a denim bag, as seen at Acne Studios. This specific style is yet to land online, but there are plenty of other denim arm candy options out there at the moment. 

Style Notes: Denim skirts always make a comeback during the summer months, but usually start to disappear when the temperatures begin to drop. Not this season! Celine has decided to keep them around for autumn, specifically in maxi lengths. 

Style Notes: If you’re feeling a little denim fatigued, there’s a key detail to look for that’ll make your ensembles pop. Deliberate seams kept cropping up on the runways, and there’s plenty to go around right now, too. 

Style Notes: Denim jackets are a perennial wardrobe staple, this we know. However, this trend is all about how you wear your denim jacket. Layer yours underneath a shacket for a quick catwalk-inspired update. 

Style Notes: Another denim trend we’re carrying through from this season to next, the Canadian tuxedo (wearing a denim shirt with jeans) was a big deal on the spring catwalks, and is here to stay for autumn. Only this time, things have taken a slouchier turn with oversized shirting and loose-fit jeans informing your silhouette.
