We already knew that skinny jeans were way out of style, but this fall 2023 denim trend is taking things a step further than your classic straight leg. Along with all things '90s, the baggy jean is emerging as one of the most popular denim styles of the season — just ask your favorite celebs.
When should I stop wearing linen pants?
The traditional thinking is, never wear linen clothing before Memorial Day or after Labor Day. While most people adhere to this, there really is no reason – especially in Southern California – not to wear it year round. So, get your “summer” linens out and enjoy the light, airy feeling of this natural fabric.
Wide-leg pants: Wide-leg pants have been trending for a few years now and they are still going strong in 2023. They come in a variety of fabrics, from linen to denim, and can be dressed up or down.
In 2023, it's all about embracing daring and vibrant prints and colours in bed linen sets. Think of tropical prints and geometric patterns in vibrant shades of yellow, pink, and green.
Casual look.
For a more relaxed look, linen pants go super well with any flat shoes - white sneakers, flats, or sandals. Simply wear a basic white t-shirt and pair it with a nice pair of wide-leg or cropped linen pants. In addition, add some kind of neutral color beige bag (sand, cream, or beige color). That's it!
2023 Fashion Trend: Maxi Skirts
In line with the aforementioned cargo and denim trends, expect lots of low-rise, pocket-adorned silhouettes and floor-grazing jean skirts, as well as styles in various prints and unexpected materials like velvet.
Give baggy jeans a structured and somewhat preppy twist with the help of a collared shirt. While a crisp white something can do no wrong, a bright hue will help make your look pop. A pair of loafers or even babydoll shoes will work to pull it all together.
While a slim-fitting shirt is one way to balance out a loose-fit jean, outerwear that carries a similar amount of baggage creates a cool, effortlessly oversized silhouette from top to bottom. This spring, go for a leather bomber jacket.
The great thing about this fabric is that there are no rules about wearing linen. Matching your linen garment with another article made from linen is pretty easy.
Avoid detergent with added fabric softener, most fabric softeners available do not work on linen and can leave a residue, and NEVER use bleach on linen! No, not even for white linen. Bleach is linen's worst enemy, and can cause the fibre to rip or wear out much quicker.
It's important to wear the right socks and shoes with a linen suit. A good rule of thumb is to wear socks in the same color as your trousers. This allows your socks to blend into your trousers, making them less visible.
What material looks good with linen?
Nothing tops the combination of linen and silk. Two luxurious fabrics that create an incredible harmony are then matched in an outfit. Faux leather is another great combination option. To create an edgy look, pair a linen mini skirt with a simple shirt and black faux leather jacket.
Linen can be combined with other fibres such as silk, polyester, spandex, viscose, TENCEL™ and cotton which will alter the feel and structure of the fabric.
You may be wondering which material goes well with linen. Given linen's unique texture (coarse and grainy) that's an understandable concern. So you'll be pleased to know that the two materials which go best with linen are denim and organic cotton (which is sort of like saying organic cotton and organic cotton!).
The key point to know is that linen doesn't stretch, which can make sizing more difficult. Personal stylist Holly Katz suggests that people with more curves should order a pant size up, whereas people who have a more square body shape should stick to their true size.
Keep Proportions In Mind. Linen is oftentimes a bit more flowy, and loose and can wrinkle easily. So keeping your proportions in mind can help to balance out the more loose and casual fit of linen pants. A few options include a fitted bodysuit, a tucked-in top, or a nice tailored blouse for something dressier.
