How to wear skinny jeans is shown in a collage of women's skinny jean outfits. Specifically, on the left, a woman stands outside wearing a black blazer over a white t-shirt with black skinny jeans and black ballet flats.

A new era of slim-fitting jeans is upon us, driven by a succession of brands reintroducing the silhouette. Departing from the polarizing “scary” versions of yore, designers have softened the style with subtly relaxed fits, understated washes, and lengthened hemlines—crafting skinny jeans that are far more universally flattering. Beyond high fashion, the style set has slowly reintegrated slim-fit denim into everyday wardrobes, cementing its return to relevance, whether embraced or not.

1. Opt for a Monochrome Look

WEAR: Simple Earrings + Cropped Gray Jacket + Gray Skinny Jeans + Gray Handbag + Slingback Flats

Styling Notes: A singular or hyper-minimal color palette is the key to lending skinny jeans an air of sophistication. Opt for slate-gray denim (as seen here) or your preferred wash, then pair with elevated basics in complementary shades—a structured blazer, a small structured handbag, and slingback flats, for example. This tried-and-true combination guarantees elegance every time.
