One of the side effects of becoming a fashion editor is that everyone treats you like their personal shopper. I get texts from friends, family members, and even friends' moms asking for recommendations. "Where should I buy a wedding guest dress?" "What's actually worth shopping this season?" But lately, the questions I've gotten most are about denim. Recently, when a friend asked where to start her search for a summer denim refresh, I pointed her toward Calvin Klein. The brand has been making great jeans for decades, and its current lineup is full of the relaxed, easy silhouettes everyone is wearing right now. Here's exactly why I sent her there.
Flattering Cuts
Finding jeans that fit well is half the battle, which is why Calvin Klein is always one of my first recommendations. The brand offers a variety of silhouettes, inseams, and sizes, making it easier to find a pair that works for your body and personal style. Whether you prefer straight-leg jeans, baggy denim, or high-rise cuts, the fit feels comfortable without sacrificing style.
Quality
A great pair of jeans should be able to handle years of wear, and that's one of the things Calvin Klein does so well. The denim feels substantial, the construction is solid, and the washes have a clean, easy look that works with everything.
Heritage
Some brands have staying power, and Calvin Klein is one of them. It's been a fixture in fashion for decades and remains a go-to for great denim. Right now, the brand's baggy jeans and straight-leg jeans feel especially relevant; they're simultaneously timeless and current.
