The internet may remain divided about whether skinny jeans will ever be “a thing” again, but it’s pretty united about wide-leg styles having universal appeal. Transcending trend cycles entirely, they are, without a trace of doubt, the most versatile jean type.
Cold-weather styling brings its own considerations, and the most important is length. The right pair of wide-leg jeans should skim, but not swallow, your shoes.
Winter is an excellent time to embrace darker indigo, grey and black rinses, but that doesn’t mean your favourite stone-washed blues need to lie dormant until spring comes around. Paired with the right pieces, light denim can look just as seasonally appropriate.
Shearling or fur gives instant elevation to a pair of dark denim flared jeans. Cosy and warm, such jacket balances the flared-leg silhouette perfectly.
