There are a few denim cuts that would be considered classic silhouettes at this point. Yes, straight-leg jeans and even skinny jeans could fall into this category. And when it comes to slightly trendier styles, there’s one key look that’s a front-runner right now. We’re talking about slouchy jeans. This relaxed denim trend is honestly a favorite of every single one of our editors from NYC to L.A.
