A return to classic denim styles has our hearts pounding
Enduring love
If recent seasons have seen more outré denim styles reign supreme on the runway - the big and baggy, the low-slung, the diamanté-encrusted - the beginning of a new year offers time for a reset. Now is the moment for revisiting denim's most timeless archetypes, subtly subverted this season by an array of designers - from the classic blue jean to the Western-style denim shirt. Both of these pieces are revisited with aplomb at Brunello Cucinelli, where the label's dedication to Italian craftsmanship creates denim that is both soft, strong and intrinsically elegant.
A similar refinement is evident at Fendi, where womenswear creative director Kim Jones uses crisp indigo-dyed denim for equestrian-inspired dresses - a rounded skirt and buckle recall the proportions of a saddle and impeccably tailored high-waisted jeans. At Jacob Cöhen - an expert in the medium, crafting its famed denim entirely by hand in the Veneto - sees bootcut fits and gently-oversized denim jackets strike a 1990s-inflected mood (a simple white tank provides the perfect companion). A raw-edge trenchcoat by Tod's, in contrasting panels of washed denim, also recalls the undone glamour of the era, here reinvigorated for the season ahead.
