Fall 2018's biggest denim trends are actually pretty easy to pull off, and that's because there's a flattering fit for every type of gal. Whether you're still all about the '80s and you prefer to wear a strong-shouldered blazer with tapered trousers and flashy heels, or you're a tomboy who loves a skinny pant with a racing stripe, there's a way for you to feel cool in your jeans. Some of our favorite supermodels and stars have already pointed us in the right direction with their street style, so now there's only one thing to do: shop! Read ahead to get the rundown on the latest silhouettes.
1 '80s Distress
Whether you opt for high-rise, boot-cut jeans with rips at the knees that you cinch at the waist with a thick leather belt or go Priyanka Chopra's route with a skirt overlay, 'tis the season to channel the '80s. The Quantico star's R13 skirted jeans have become iconic among the fashion pack, but there are plenty more iterations you can style with a strong-shouldered jacket to get the look.
