I'm a Former Madewell Stylist and Think These 5 Jeans Work For Everyone

Calling all Madewell stans. If you're a fan of the brand's classic, well-made pieces, then you're probably well aware of which perennial staples are the most popular. There are so many things the retailer gets right, from its wardrobe staples to its everyday shoes, and classic bags, but above all, its denim selection.

After years of working as a stylist at the brand, my good friend Zoë Thompson is well-acquainted with Madewell's offering, and especially their best-selling jeans, so I had her share the exact styles that she thinks work for everyone, regardless of your taste, age, or budget. There are five of these best Madewell jeans that she insists are truly versatile, timeless, and work for everyone. Think of these as the jean fits that you'll invest in now and will become the backbones of your wardrobe for years to come. Yep, they're just that good. Continue on to read, and of course shop, each of the ones she recommends and get inspired by how I'd style each.

"If you don't have the time or the wherewithal to go hunting down an actual pair of vintage jeans, these are the next best thing. They're the closest thing Madwell has to "mom" jeans with their high rise and ever-so-slightly tapered fit in the legs. All the washes are so good, but the light 'fiore' wash is my favorite because it feels ultra '90s."

"Lean and modern, these vintage-looking jeans kick out into a cropped mini-flare that works as a showcase for your shoes, whether that be flats, sneakers, and heels alike."

"Skinny jeans are really the backbone of a Madewell girl's closet if you ask me, and it's these Roadtripper jeans that just continue to be wildly popular. Once you try these bad boys on you immediately understand why because they have just the right amount of stretch to the fabric that makes them feel like you could eat, sleep, and live your whole life 24/7 in them, which is saying a lot for a pair of jeans. They come in a range of rises from 9- to 11-inches and fit from petite to tall, so it really is possible to find the perfect fit."

"The name says it all. These are simply a classic jean that I would personally go so far as to say belongs in everyone's closet. Whether you're going for a cropped or full-length look, these are a great does-it-all style that you can wear dressed up or down."

"For that cool slightly slouchy look, it's got to be the Boyjeans. They've since come out with different versions like the Dadjeans and Tomboy jeans, but these are right on the money with that hint of roominess without losing any of the polish. I would throw these on with sneakers and a tee for an easy weekend vibe."

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...
