We’ve been reporting on many of the rising denim trends in the realm of jeans throughout 2023, but for summer the most talked-about trends go far beyond jean silhouettes. Overall in recent jean outfits, looser, wide-leg shapes are still winning out as are classic straight-leg styles, and white jeans are a standout color that have been on the rise long before the arrival of summer. The biggest denim trends of the season, however, mostly revolve around non-jean pieces and more unexpected styles.
One of the most viral pieces on the internet recently? Chanel’s denim ballerina flats that are practically sold out everywhere but point to a larger movement of denim accessories. Among them, ballet flats and bags that lend a more casual take on polished silhouettes. Outside of jeans, denim maxi skirts and bralettes are other pieces incorporating denim that are hot ticket items this season. Ahead, see the biggest summer denim trends of 2023 and shop the edit.
