Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadid and Sydney Sweeney are just a few of the celebs rocking these denim trends for Spring 2024.

From jeans and jackets to jorts and even joots, denim is a closet staple that will never go out of style. But even though the versatile fabric will always have a place in our wardrobes, denim trends tend to change like the wind throughout the seasons.

First, skinny jeans were out — a victim of the ongoing Gen-Z vs millennial fashion battle — but now they might be back in. Denim skirts and allover denim (sometimes known as the derogatory "Canadian tuxedo") are also making a comeback, albeit in unexpected silhouettes. We're also seeing a major uptick in embellished denim — think studs, sparkles and contrast stitching — as well as Y2K-inspired cargo and flare jeans.

Feeling overwhelmed? Us too, which is why we made a guide for the biggest spring denim trends to know for 2024. Whether you're looking to update your denim collection for the new season or reincorporate some of your old favorites with new silhouettes, we're here to show you the best denim to shop and how it's being styled.

Spring Denim Trend No. 3: Maxi Skirts

Hemline lengths historically reflect the economy, and naturally, our skirt lengths are getting lower with the recession. This season's embodiment of the hemline index is the shockingly versatile denim maxi skirt, which you can pair with double denim à la Bella Hadid or keep it simple with your favorite tees and tanks.

With so much variation in adorned denim, it's an easy way to add some extra texture to your look.
