4 Comfortable Fall Denim Trends to Look Forward to Wearing

Call me crazy but I actually miss wearing jeans. Obviously it's been ridiculously hot as of late, but I also am just tired of feeling like I'm constantly enveloped in jersey knit. I long for something crisper and a little more dressed up, yet still familiar. That's why I've decided not to abandon denim again as I did back in March when lockdowns began. But for fall 2020, I'm definitely buying fewer rigid, straight-leg styles and more loose, relaxed, stretchy styles.

Given the aforementioned limitations I'm placing on my denim shopping this fall, I've narrowed the options way down, to four specific styles, all of which are considerably more comfortable than many jeans on the market. And after narrowing them down, I noticed something fun: Each style corresponds with the major denim trend that a past decade is known for. 

So with that, scroll to shop fall's four most comfortable denim trends, that originally date back to the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s. 

Ripped jeans are one of the most surprising trends to return this year, but based on how many celebrities and influencers are wearing them, it can't be ignored. I, for one, haven't worn distressed denim much since the 2000s, but I'm very tempted to purchase a pair. This time around, go for more subtle distressing and a slouchy silhouette (as opposed to skinny jeans).

Skater jeans is a fun trend that coincides with the overarching grunge theme on the F/W 20 runways. This long and baggy style is comfortable for obvious reasons, and actually looks even cooler with similarly baggy pieces, so feel free to embraced the all oversized everything look when wearing them.

Think of pleated jeans as mom jeans 2.0. Featuring a high waist and often a tapered leg, pleated jeans are surprisingly flattering and easy to wear, in addition to being nice and roomy (AKA comfortable). 

As is the case every few years in fashion, the '70s are back. And the return of the '70s couldn't be possible without the adjacent return of flared jeans. My best advice for making it work? Opt for a high-waisted style and wear heels (even just a low heel is better than flats with flares). Last but not least, definitely choose a pair with even just a hint of stretch to keep things comfortable.

Next up, the 6 best basics to wear with jeans 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...
