Loose-fit jeans
The skinny vs loose-fit jeans debate often gains media attention – however, the dominance of skinny jeans started to wane several seasons ago. Since 2014, WGSN has been accurately predicting the rise of looser-fit jeans, fuelled by the growth of resale and interest in vintage, the body positivity movement, the rise of gender-inclusive design and the focus on comfort fuelled by the pandemic.
