*This* Is The Denim You Should Be Wearing
Alec Kugler

In case you weren’t already well aware, it’s officially Denim Week here at Coveteur. And as the denim enthusiasts that we are, we couldn't help but to bring all of our most favorite pairs of the season to one of our most favorite hotels in New York, The Marlton, for a little shoot.

Whether you’re into a trouser pant, embellished designer jean jacket, striped cropped flares, or, you know, denim that makes your butt look great, we’ve got it.

 


The Updated Trouser Jean

 

Leave it to Stella McCartney to make a wide-leg pair trouser jean with just enough visual interest to keep them from being staid. Still though, these would totally get a pass in the office. Meanwhile, M.I.H. adds embroidered stars for a slightly ‘70s vibe.

Should you prefer your trouser jeans cropped and with a vaguely Breton-esque, McGuire has you covered.

Colored Denim

 

We think wearing Acne Studio’s multi-colored denim jacket with 3x1’s stupid cropped flares would give you a little bit of a Sergeant Pepper quality—which is exactly what we’re hoping for this fall. But if you’re looking for a slightly more matching set….

Denim Suit

 

...Consider this runway version from Prada. It truly doesn’t get any more special or high-fashion that this.

Denim Skirt

 

Denim skirts: perfect for pairing with ankle booties, chunky sweaters, chambray tops, sneakers, platform heels, leather jackets, anything leopard-print, a feeling of extreme confidence…you get the idea.

Jean Jackets

 

Your eighth grade denim jackets, these are not. With beaded patches, lace accents, and full on white-out, these are statement-makers worthy of any denim obsessive.

*Fancy* Denim

 

You probably never thought you could wear denim to a *formal affair* did you? Neither did we until we met these gold embroidered guys from Seafarer. Long, lean, and heavy on the glitz—paired with a velvet Le Smoking jacket, red lipstick, and a sleek, low bun, these very nearly get the black tie pass.
