Year after year, season after season, denim remains a constant staple in wardrobes around the globe. Designed to stand the test of time, denim pieces are cut, recut, recycled and reworked into jeans, jackets, shirts, shorts; we have even witnessed its transformation into bags, boots and hats.

Whether the trending silhouettes of the season go on to become fleeting delights or iconic timepiece styles, denim is here to stay.

In fact, denim is having an even bigger moment in the spotlight this year, taking shape in various trending silhouettes and colourways, both on runways and in the streets. Continue reading to explore the trending denim styles of 2022 and how to style them.

Whether you adore or abhor it, there is no denying that double denim is chief among the reigning denim trends of the year. Taking on modern silhouettes and neater fits, the dynamism of the denim duet has been resurrected for 2022 through matching sets designed to be worn together.

Find the likes of fitted corset style tanks paired with soft A-line midi skirts, and motorcycle style jackets matched back with high rise belted jeans. To complete the look, elevate your denim set with strappy heeled sandals and simple hoop earrings for a pared-back yet statement ensemble.

While the classic blue will always have a place in the discerning dresser’s wardrobe, the 2022 denim wash of choice presents itself in Ivory. Jeans, midi skirts, crop tops and tanks are contrasted with tan top stitching and antique gold hardware for a fresh take on otherwise traditional dressing.

An extremely versatile look, mix and match with ivory denim separates for a crisp utilitarian look; pair with a chunky knit and boots to keep warm in the winter, or wear with black pants and heeled sandals for an effortlessly cool monochrome moment. Finish with layered gold jewellery and a cross body bag to complete the look with ease.

While recent years have seen traditional hardware details reign supreme, 2022’s leading denim styles have been updated to feature antique gold metals and sculptural pullers against timeless denim silhouettes. To complement the look, style with similarly sculptural gold jewellery and elevated separates for a contemporary take on classic style.
