Jeans 101: Find Your Fit in These Bestselling Pairs

Riffing on a ’70s silhouette, Paige puts a contemporary spin on the retro classic with its wide-leg Anessa jeans. Eschewing the typical fit-and-flare or exaggerated bootcut of the era, the brand’s trending pair hugs high on the waist before relaxing into a wide, full-length flare – perfectly wearable for the everyday. Paige’s signature Transcend Vintage denim and raw hems, meanwhile, deliver that coveted lived-in look from the outset, specially designed to allow comfortable stretch and recovery.

From runways to street style, tastemakers are looking to 1990s fashion more than any other decade right now. It’s no surprise, then, that straight-leg jeans are among the trending cuts of 2024. In keeping with our favourite off-duty It-girls, the fit is all about looking nonchalant yet impeccably put together. The Agolde ’90s Pinch-Waist is the crème de le crème, fitting just snugly enough on the hips before loosening into a comfortable yet sleek straight leg. A dream come true for low-maintenance minimalists.

Though a departure from the looser silhouettes that have dominated denim lately, skinny jeans remain a steadfast investment for fans of a capsule wardrobe – and will be appearing in ever increasing numbers thanks to their resurgence on the Miu Miu AW24 runway. Stay tuned. Good American’s pair is a favourite among the brand’s loyalists. Part of its Good Legs collection, they’re specially designed to sculpt and shape with a body-hugging fit that enhances the hips and legs without gaping at the waist. Can’t argue with that.
