Raw denim: Trendiest jeans shade for fall 2024
Jeans are the most popular wardrobe staple, allowing you to create countless stylish looks. While coconut milk, ecru, and buttercream-colored jeans were at the height of fashion in spring and summer, for fall, it's time to consider a darker shade. Specifically, jeans made from raw denim.
Stylist Yana Platonova on Instagram explains this trend and how to style these jeans.
The term "raw denim" is used to describe so-called unprocessed or "raw" denim. Initially, this referred to pairs of jeans that had not undergone any additional heat or chemical treatment, characterized by a uniform deep blue color and high density.

In the past, these jeans were very stiff, and the wear marks that appeared over time were unique — unlike the pre-faded areas created in factories.

Dark blue jeans with contrasting stitching will be the most fashionable choice for the fall-winter 2024 season. The key feature is that the fabric should be uniform, without any fading or wear marks.

What style of jeans to choose? It’s best to opt for wide or slightly loose fits. You can pair them with other denim pieces, as well as with dressy blouses or casual turtlenecks.
