The fashion world has seen its fair share of risky—and oftentimes polarizing—denim trends. From bedazzled jeans to naked ones (that sold out very fast, by the way) we thought we'd seen it all in the realm of unconventional styles. But a new trend sweeping the celebrity world has us thinking otherwise, with Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lopez both spotted lately wearing exaggerated wide-leg trousers that look like a skirt. Another defining feature? A corset-style waist.
Hadid chose to style her charcoal Sara Battaglia pants with a simple black shirt—a sleek and safe choice when paired with such statement-making trousers. Plus, her tucked-in top perfectly emphasized the unique corset waist. J.Lo, taking a similar approach in styling, paired her wide-leg Brunello Cucinelli jeans with a classic striped sweater (that she also tucked in) and black heels.
The main takeaway? When wearing this denim trend, keep the rest of the pieces in the outfit uncomplicated—a basic black tee is always a safe choice. Keep reading to see Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lopez rocking this risky denim trend, and if you're a bit bored with what's currently in your closet, consider investing in a pair of these wide-leg trousers.
