OUT: BUSY BACK POCKETS || IN: SIMPLE BACK POCKETS WITH MINIMAL DETAILS

No.1 of 5 denim trends out of style is jeans with embellished back pockets. This practice became common for a while, but I’ve noticed many major designers opting for simpler back pockets without embellishment. I’m personally happy to see this trend go as I prefer something like this killer pair of jeans from Frame. The back pockets are simple and they’ve been placed in a way that gives your bum a little lift, which is a nice bonus! I wear a size 24 and they fit true to size.

OUT: LOW-RISE BAGGY JEANS || IN: HIGH-RISE BAGGY OR WIDE LEG JEANS

Style No.2 is low-rise baggy jeans and this style isn’t so much OUT as it is simply not flattering. Unless you’re a 6-foot-tall model, I truly feel like this style of denim will do more harm than good in your closet, so I say skip it! Instead, I would choose a wide-leg or baggy style of denim with a high waist. This will ensure all that material creates a slimming elongating effect on your silhouette. This pair is from Citizens of Humanity and is a frequent player in my denim rotation. I love how they are a wide-leg style but there’s not too much excess material to deal with. I wear a size 24 and they fit true to size.

OUT: HEAVILY RIPPED JEANS || IN: NON-RIPPED DENIM

Trend No. 3 on its way out is heavily distressed denim! Excess rips and distressing have had their 15 minutes of fame, but non-distressed denim is taking center stage again this fall. This gorgeous pair of jeans is from Madewell and also features another red-hot denim trend this fall: dark wash! These are so flattering, they fit like a dream and the lack of distressing lets the silhouette shine through. I wear a size 24 and they fit true to size.

OUT: CROPPED FLARES || IN: BABY FLARES THAT ARE LONGER IN LENGTH

No. 4 on my list of denim trends out of style this season is cropped flares. Not only is this trend on its way out, but they’re extremely unflattering because they cut your legs off, effectively making you look shorter. Instead, opt for a pair of full-length baby flares for a slimming effect that will make your legs look miles long. I wear a size 24 in these baby flares by Mother that have been a favorite in my closet for quite a while now!

OUT: LOW-RISE SKINNY JEANS || IN: HIGH-WAISTED MODERN SKINNY JEANS:

Last but not least on my list of denim trends out of style in 2024 are low-rise skinny jeans! The low-rise waist combined with a skinny leg will instantly make you look frumpy and outdated, not to mention this style does nothing for most body types. A high waist will do so much more for your body shape and a modern skinny jean has a slightly wider leg for more comfort and a less restrictive fit. This fantastic pair of jeans from Mott & Bow is a great example of a modern skinny style! They feature a high-waisted design that sits just below your natural waist, which offers both comfort and a flattering shape. Fitting snugly through the waist and hips, they give a relaxed fit through the thighs and taper nicely at the hem, creating a silhouette that’s both chic and comfortable. Plus, the medium blue wash works perfectly year-round, making them a versatile addition to your wardrobe. Best of all, they’re reasonably priced. I’m wearing a size 24 and they fit true to size.
