7 Ways to Style Denim According to the Spring 2020 Runways

After a whirlwind trip through New York, London, Milan, and Paris, the Spring 2020 shows have finally concluded and we're able to look back at the countless collections and take stock. While trends large and small have begun to emerge, it's an overall feeling of a more pared-down, casual, and cool wardrobe for the coming season that we've truly been struck by. And no laid-back style essential stood in the forefront quite like denim.

Shows like Celine included denim in nearly every single look that walked the Parisian runway, while denim-lovers like Brock Collection and Isabel Marant included a spattering of jeans for morning, noon, and night. Givenchy, Chanel, and more followed suit, designing blue jeans, midi skirts, and button-down shirting that had us gaga over some of the most wearable outfits to walk the high-fashion runways in a long time.

From all those designers and more, here are seven ways we're wearing denim, straight from the Spring 2020 runways.
