Capitalising on the obsession with ‘90s fashion trends, long denim skirts are set to reign this season. Originally worn with a strapless bandeau top for a hero look, in 2023, they're adapted into a much more glamorous affair. High-waisted, haute details and overly exaggerated splits – this is the versatile style staple you’ll be wearing with everything from sneakers and a slouchy sweater to heels and a chic bomber jacket for nights in the city.

Statement pockets have seen a resurgence in street style, making "gorpcore" one of the biggest trends this season. Transcending into the world of denim, expect loose-fitting, statement utility jeans (and even denim maxi skirts) with oversized leg pockets. Aside from being endlessly practical, these styles are giving brands the chance to fuse sustainability into their offerings by using surplus, otherwise wasted fabrics. What’s not to love?

This season, expect to see your favourite denim styles in everything from classic indigo hues to light sage and lilacs. Pretty pastel washes bring a playfulness to everyday dressing while serving wearability long into the springtime. Meanwhile, the eighties’ acid wash is also back, with many trialling a more polished look by teaming darker rinses with a fierce heel – though relaxed silhouettes in super light, sandblast denim remain a dress-down favourite.

Skinny jeans are taking a hiatus, with voluminous, oversized denim set to be a key trend throughout Autumn/Winter 2023/24. Expect baggy, puddle hemlines that billow over your shoes; wide leg jeans – in a variety of rises – and barrel legs (a hybrid of the mom and straight-leg jeans) which taper at the ankle. Extra baggy definitely means extra comfortable, so it’s time to embrace this slouchy new fit with an update to your perennial favourites.

Applauded in the ‘00s, double denim has taken a while to make a comeback to the streets, traditionally favouring the bold. Moving towards a more circular design process, expect to see two-tone patchwork denim, with brands making use of surplus fabrics (a sure-fire winner in our eyes). The hero of this look is definitely the jacket, so invest in a real style statement, with embellishment and embroidery as an easy way to bring personality to your looks.
