Denim Essentials: The Jeans, Skirts, Dresses & Jackets We’re Adding to Cart

No matter the season, denim is always in style. A staple of our capsule wardrobes, the sturdy fabric and its many forms are suitable for both daytime casual and more dressed-up ‘dos. 

Right now, we’re revamping our wardrobes with new denim pieces that stand out from the pack and stand the test of time. 

From timeless jean cuts to baggy styles that are all the rage, to chic denim dresses perfect for the office and maxi skirts made for the change in season, these are the must-have denim essentials we’re shopping right now.

The Best Denim Jeans in Australia Right Now

Whilst jean shopping gets a bad wrap, it doesn’t have to be an overwhelming experience. Gone are the days when one style is expected to suit all. From straight cut to low rise, wide leg to boyfriend, there’s no right or wrong.

A dream collab between two Aussie labels, the Outland Denim 90s Low Rise jean is straight cut perfection. Designed to sit at the hips for an off duty look, it pairs perfectly with any capsule wardrobe, worn with an oversized shirt or a classic tee.
