Saks Fall Trend Report: Runway Denim

Sponsor Content Created With Saks

This season, designers are pushing denim to creative new heights. We're not talking about your basic pair of skinny jeans; think high-concept, statement-making, runway-worthy pieces. Jeans were reworked, frayed, and patched, as seen at Tome. Experimental dye patterns were tested at Stella McCartney. The classic denim jacket got a game-changing pattern makeover at Balenciaga. And, as expected, iterations of the trend IRL are packed with personality. Consider taking notes from the street style stars and pairing the look with statement earrings or a wild printed shirt.
