[D]ENIM
“It’s refreshing to see denim on the catwalk because it
works as a counterpoint to anything too ‘fashion’: denim is the sensible friend
who wants you to look good, not stupid.” - Elgar Johnson
OK, so the quote above may not have applied to Britney and Justin when they decided to wear matching double-denim outfits to the American Music Awards in 2001. Really though, where would we be without blue boot-cut jeans and the classic denim jacket?

The fabric is an iconic and staple part of every woman's wardrobe. But put down those skinnies and say good bye to the comfort stretch of faux-jeans and jeggings. This season’s denim is rigid, androgynous and torn at the seams.
Here are five of the best cuts and washes to look out for
this Spring:
1 - GIRLFRIEND
Up your dating game with
these ‘AUTHENTIC 1969 best girlfriend jeans’ from Gap, £44.95.
2 - DISTRESSED
Open stitches, scuffed knees, raw hems and frayed edges; when it comes to distressed denim, anything goes. Tear it up in a pair of bleached Original MOM jeans from ASOS, £35.00.
(Just be prepared for
parents/grandparents to question whether you can “afford a pair without holes
in?”)
3 - PINSTRIPED
Smart meets casual with Topshop's twist on the classic suit pattern. Say it in stripes with these printed denim co-ords, £45.00.
4 - CROPPED
Because culottes are hot. We've been through this.
These frayed denim culottes tick all the boxes and are available in Zara for just £19.99.
5 - PATCHWORK
Or if you're feeling crafty, why not DIY with some old denim shorts and locker stickers? (Skinny Dip, £10.00)
