Grandpa Jeans: The Potent Trend That's Taking Off

Our grandparents clearly know what’s up in the style department. After all, their beloved trends are basically going mainstream these days. In fact, grandma dressing is increasing in popularity for fall 2019: We’re talking tweed, knee-high socks, and so on. But grandma isn’t the only one making waves—grandpa is too. Yep, I can’t thumb through Instagram these days without spotting an It girl wearing “grandpa” jeans.

The grandpa jean silhouette first cropped up in a noteworthy way last season when brands like Sandy Liang debuted a style that’s basically in between “mom” jeans and baggy fits. Basically, this denim cut is straight, tapered, looser in shape (in that ironic “uncool” but cool kind of way), and often features details you might have seen on your grandpa’s go-to jeans, like a carpenter handle on the side.

To show you what we mean, we rounded up a range of fashion girls wearing the potent denim trend you’re about to see everywhere. And if you’re inspired to give them a go to infuse a forward twist into your fall outfit game, we shopped out a few of our favorites we think you’ll be into as well.

Style tip: Team grandpa jeans with another ironic trend like a loose Nike pullover. Pointed slingbacks bring an unexpected feel to the overall vibe. 

Style tip: Tuck an architectural blouse into your loose jeans for a forward night-out fit.

Style tip: Really go for it with the "ugly" trends out there by opting for "dad" sneakers and a fanny pack with your baggy jeans.

Style tip: Toss on a slouchy blazer and polished accessories with your jeans for a streamlined look.

Style tip: Upgrade your off-duty formula by testing this outfit featuring an oversized graphic tee, grandpa jeans, and high-top sneakers. 

Style tip: Bunching your jeans at the hem used to be a "don't," but it's honestly quite cool mixed with chunky trainers.

Style tip: Elevate denim by mixing strappy sandals and a tailored blazer into your vibe.

Next, check out the grandma trends that are popular this fall.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
