Appetite for denim seems to be at an all time high. Many of us lived in sweatpants throughout the pandemic, so jeans have become a welcome alternative to our tired loungewear. Baggy jeans have unsurprisingly become the most popular silhouette, but bootcut jeans are also on the rise.
Kate Moss channelled her Noughties self in a pair of bootcuts at London Fashion Week. The super styled her nostalgic jeans with a white shirt, a blue velvet blazer, brown boots, a snakeskin clutch and round sunglasses at Richard Quinn’s spring/summer 2022 show, where she cheered on her model daughter, Lila Moss.

Model Mica Argañaraz – who walked 12 shows for the spring/summer 2022 season – was also photographed wearing bootcut jeans in Paris, paired with Converse, a cropped knit, a black coat and a cap.

Bootcut jeans are a more accessible throwback denim shape than the low-risers that have been trending of late. Let old-school bootcut lovers, including Jennifer Aniston, Gisele Bündchen and Halle Berry, be your muses (the latter even wore them on the red carpet).

Stars with their fingers on the trend pulse are buying in. Earlier this month, denim obsessive Rihanna put her own spin on the bootcut with a little help from Rick Owens. Keen to make a statement, she styled her metallic coated pair with a green Maria Moscone coat and acid-bright Savage X Fenty lace gloves.
