The best jeans to shop now – and how to wear them
Finding a new, favourite pair of jeans is no small task. However, as they're the building block to most of our outfits, choosing the perfect pair is the simplest way to hit refresh on classic wardrobe pieces.
Here, the Red fashion team share their favourite jeans of the moment, and the shapes they’re currently coveting, as well how they’ll be styling them for an instant seasonal update...
Best jeans: The barrel-leg jean
Charlie barrel-leg jeans
Sarah Tomczak, Red Editor in Chief, says: "The barrel-leg jean is a great wardrobe update as an everyday shape I can wear with heels and flats, while still being super high-waisted. A little tip: I’d recommend non-stretch fabrics, as the starchier material is infinitely cooler and holds the beautiful ‘balloon’ silhouette which brings a contemporary update to a heritage check blazer."
Best jeans: The Wide-leg jean
VOLUME WIDE-LEG JEANS
Jodie Dunworth, Red Fashion Editor, says: "My go-to style of jeans is always a high-rise, wide leg for its relaxed, easy to wear nonchalance. Despite the extra material, they still feel elegant and are a great way to soften up the smarter items in my closet, like a stripe shirt and duster coat, for an effortless off-duty look. This time, I'm trying an oversized straight leg for a slightly slimmer fit which means I can wear them with both kitten heels and trainers."
Best jeans: The dark wash jean
Dark Indigo Flare Jeans
Oonagh Brennan, Red Fashion Director, says: "I have so many pairs of jeans, but what my wardrobe is missing is a super-smart dark wash to close the gap between tailored trousers and relaxed denim. I'm choosing a pair that crop at the most flattering point of the ankle, making them perfect for styling with my favourite hero pieces this season – a pair of black patent Mary Janes and a crisp white shirt, both of which are really complemented by the darker denim."
