The Anti-Trend Jeans People in Paris, London and New York Consistently Wear

“Citizens of Humanity are my go-to for all things denim and they've elevated the simple black jean into something fashion-forward with the avant garde horseshoe fit. Don't be put off by the voluminous silhouette, once they're on they nip the waist and the wide cuffs balance out the hips, ideal for a pear shape like me!” – Remy Farrell, Shopping Editor

“My favourite pair of black jeans are actually a recent purchase from Nudie. I'm in love with the brown block detail, and the high-waisted fit is so flattering.” – Jerrylyn Saguiped, Affiliates Manager

"Zara jeans are like Marmite. You either love them, or you hate them. I fall firmly in the love camp, having worn Zara's denim for over 10 years. My body shape and size has changed (a lot!) in those years, but I still find the brand to be the best on the high street. Don't get me wrong, there are times when the sizing drives me a little mad, but 9 times out of 10 I find the cut, length and fit works really well for my body shape. I have straights, paperbag styles and flares in an array of solid blacks and washed iterations. And considering I wear them probably 3 or 4 times a week, I'd say they are my hardest working wardrobe staple!" - Poppy Nash, Managing Editor

“I am absolutely obsessed with my Levi Ribcage jeans, and have them in multiple colourways. The multi-button aspect of the jeans makes your hips look slimmer and makes me feel like my waist is smaller. I only wear high-waisted jeans, and they are super high and really comfortable.” – Sophie Cookson, Insights Manager

“I have a new favourite pair after a long, long search! Mother has introduced a petite range called Lil Mother and the fit is perfect for my 5ft 1inch height and hourglass figure. Their jeans are always fantastic quality and ultra-comfortable so I cannot recommend these highly enough.” – Hannah Almassi, Editor-in-Chief

You won't find better jeans for the price.

The forward seams make these look more expensive than they are.

Together with the matching jacket, this is an ultra-cool look.

This shape is so current.

Tapered denim is a trend that shows no sign of going anywhere.

You'll find these so easy to style.

This slim-leg fit is super sleek.

We're always so impressed by Arket's denim, and this straight-leg pair is no exception.

This culotte-style pair will look especially good with ankle boots.

In my opinion, this is the perfect washed black shade.

Top-to-toe chic.

Frame denim is designed to last for years, especially if you pick a trend-defying cut like this one.

It's not just us who rate Weekday denim—influencers love it, too.

A fab pair of washed-black jeans.

These are next on my hit list!

Icons for a reason.

We all love M&S denim!
