There's no other way to say it: My denim collection is looking lackluster. I was swiping through my closet yesterday, trying to find a pair of jeans that felt both elevated and effortless, and I realized everything I own feels outdated, ill-fitting, or uninspired. I immediately texted Anneliese Henderson, our senior fashion editor and my personal stylist, to ask for suggestions. I laid out my stipulations, and as always, Anna delivered. Her recommendation? Calvin Klein. Read on to see which questions I grilled her with and how she proved Calvin Klein comes out on top.
I want jeans that fit and flatter. Which pairs do you suggest?
Fashion editors know where to shop for the most flattering jeans, and Calvin Klein is number one on their list. The brand's range of denim—from jeans to skirts to jackets and more—comes in modern, ultra-flattering cuts with endless inseam and sizing options to ensure you find the style that makes you look and feel your best. Anna predicts the Low Rise Baggy and 90s Straight Leg will sell out before the end of the month.
What about quality? Are Calvin Klein jeans made to last?
After this denim overhaul, I'm hoping not to have to update my jeans for a while. Anna assures me that fashion editors are extremely picky when it comes to the quality of their basics, and Calvin Klein's high-quality construction and contemporary designs surpass even their high standards. The brand's jeans are made to last from 100% cotton, so they've earned the fashion editor's stamp of approval as a worthwhile investment.
I always hear editors rave about Calvin Klein jeans. Why are they so popular?
It's kind of shocking that it's taken me this long to get on the Calvin Klein train. The brand has been beloved by celebrities, models, and It girls since its inception in the late 1970s. Its broad cultural appeal gives its denim a high chance of selling out, so you'll want to shop your favorite summer styles now. Not to mention, it's a favorite among Anna and the other fashion editors at our office.
