Everyone has their favorite pair (or pairs!) of jeans, but sometimes coming up with new ways to wear them can stump the best of us. Who better to help with some fresh denim outfit ideas than a few of our favorite street-savvy celebs? Incorporating everything from the beloved straight-leg jean to trend-forward black stovepipes and relaxed baggy cuts, these celeb-inspired denim outfits are the perfect way to rethink the perennial closet classic.
Vogue’s Must-Have Denim:
Summer dressing is still in full effect, so think of these combinations as sartorial cures for right now. From Kaia Gerber’s breezy white top paired with baggy low-rise jeans and ballet flats, to Gigi Hadid’s simple black tank top alongside a simple straight-leg and leopard kitten heels, rely on these when you need a little inspiration getting dressed on impossibly hot days across the next few months.
Still, we can’t help but look ahead, finding a few transitional opportunities for airport outfits for summer travel, when extra layers are necessary. Rihanna’s answer is simple: style out baggy wide-legs with a hoodie and khaki trench coat, plus retro sneakers and a ballcap for off-duty flair. Or try Sarah Pidgeon’s pleated trouser jeans, worn with a lightweight bomber jacket, polo shirt in bold red, and black flats—it’s the perfect balance of sporty meets polished.
And when all else fails, Kendall Jenner and Karlie Kloss prove there is little chicer than a plain T-shirt and white jeans. Free from unnecessary frills, the tried-and-true pairing is effortless, understated, and always put together.
