When it comes to denim trends, skinny jeans tend to be one of those more polarizing cuts. That being said, people truly tend to either love or loathe them. While I personally think skinnies are a classic and fail-safe choice, I do get those that prefer different silhouettes to freshen up their ensembles. If you are one of those people, you’re in luck. Below, I’ve rounded up five of the chicest spring/summer 2020 denim trends that are more or less anti–skinny jeans. And because celebrities are often some of the first to test out the latest trends, I looked to celebs like Hailey Bieber and Jennifer Lopez to showcase the looks.
Without further ado, keep scrolling to uncover a bit of visual and denim shopping inspiration. Don’t forget to grab a pair (or two) of non-skinnies for yourself this season.
On Priyanka Chopra Jonas: Chanel jacket; Jennifer Fisher hoops; Paige High Rise Lou Lou Flare Jeans ($138); Stuart Weitzman Wren Boots ($431). This anti–skinny jean trend is coming back with a vengeance this season and bringing a retro spin to your go-to casual fit.
On Hailey Bieber: Oak + Fort Cropped Cardigan ($98); Saint Laurent New Wave Sunglasses ($380) and Cassandra Bag ($2390); Carvela Goddess Sandals ($130). Slimmer cut in the leg (but not super-tight like skinnies), this cut is for the style setter who likes skinnies but doesn’t love the painted-on look.
On Selena Gomez: Naked Cashmere sweater; Levi’s jeans; BY FAR Top-Handle Bag ($625); Roxanne Assoulin earrings; Yuul Yie boots. Super wide-leg jeans are picking up steam amongst the celeb and fashion crowd as one of the coolest, laid-back jean trends to try.
On Bella Hadid: Prada bag. Similar to flares, bootcut jeans (which have just a slight flair at the opening) are happening in a major way RN. For the most forward vibe, consider a longer pair that bunches at the bottom.
On Jennifer Lopez: Max Mara coat; Valentino bag; Timberland boots. Sometimes you just can’t beat a pair of standard straight-leg jeans to bring that “classic but chic” feel to a look.
