Here's How to Take On Spring's Dark Denim Trend
While we’re not going to give up wearing our vintage light-wash Levi’s anytime soon, we are genuinely excited about adding one of spring’s hottest trends—dark-wash denim—into our daily wardrobe. The selvedge textile made a welcome comeback on the S/S 18 runways, with designers like Tom Ford, Max Mara, and Tibi showcasing the dark indigo hue in modern silhouettes and refreshing head-to-toe looks. Think matching suit separates, skirt-and-jacket combos, sleek midi dresses, tailored trousers, and fitted blazers giving denim an entirely fresh (and work-appropriate) look.
