5 Denim Trends That Are Hitting Their Expiration Date in 2021
With a brand-new year ahead, we're ready to say goodbye to 2020 in more ways than one. I think it's safe to say that we really slowed it down on denim this year, turning instead to softer pants like sweats, leggings, and knit pants and leaving our beloved jeans to gather dust. But since 2021 is offering us a clean slate in all areas of life, we're taking the opportunity to get you up to speed on the jean styles to know for the year ahead (because we'll be wearing them at the first chance we get).
The new shapes on the horizon honestly feel so fresh, from slim bootcut jeans to the loose and distressed pairs bubbling on Instagram. Of course, when new trends emerge, older ones tend to die out, so we're pointing to five styles that are hitting their expiration dates, so to speak. Ahead, find out which ones are getting the boot and peruse the new denim trends stealing the spotlight in 2021.
Mark my words: Boot-cut jeans are the denim trend you'll see the most of in 2021. While wide flares now feel outdated and a bit costumey, these slim boot-cut jeans are right on the money. They look super sleek and pair well with heeled ankle boots, so really, what's not to love?Let's talk distressing. Frayed hems had their moment in the sun but are now on their way out. Replacing them are the loose-fitting ripped jeans the fashion crowd is obsessed with. They're sure to be a staple in 2021 as an of-the-moment way to bring a laid-back quality to any look.Okay, so skinny jeans won't go out of style necessarily, but certain details will, and right now, it's mid- and low-rise skinnies that are getting the ax (sorry!). If you're a devoted fan of the slim denim, then might I suggest the cousin of skinny jeans, slim-straight denim? Think of these as a hybrid of the two fits and style them as you would classic skinny jeans.Maybe I'm biased here since I never really warmed up to the voluminous shape of pleated jeans, but I'm happy to see that they're now on their way out. Instead, "skater jeans" are the baggy style du jour. The relaxed, low-slung fit looks ultra-cool and laid-back, especially with a long slouchy hemline that pools around your feet. Style them with sneakers and a graphic tee to fully embrace the skater-kid vibe.Jean washes like black, blue, or gray tend to last longer as trends than denim fits do, but one thing I've definitely noticed is an influx of lighter washes. The casual, '90s-inspired denim is so easy to style but also indicates that colored denim is on the decline.
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...

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...
