Colored denim is stepping in as the season\u2019s freshest wardrobe update. The dependable blue denim<\/a> will always be a classic, but this spring, fashion is making a strong case for color. Across the runways, designers took a more expressive approach to dressing\u2014from sharp color blocking at Loewe, Prada, and Jil Sander, to striking monochromatic looks at Chanel, Ashlyn, and Balenciaga.<\/p>\n Madewell The Longline straight jeans<\/p>\n Jump to review<\/a><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The shift is showing in the denim<\/a> space, too. Rich earth tones\u2014clay, sand, and khaki\u2014feel modern right now, offering a polished, understated alternative to traditional blue. Seen everywhere from Loewe, Celine, and Tibi to denim labels like Ossou<\/a> and Jeanerica Atelier, these grounding shades style well with everyday neutrals\u2014making them especially appealing for the minimalist.<\/p>\n We previously spoke to\u00a0denim experts,<\/a>\u00a0who they weighed in on the neutral alternative wash: \u201cColor plays a transformative role, lifting the everyday and reframing the familiar,\u201d Nina Khosla and Talia Shuvalov, Ossou creative directors said. The soft neutrals and earthy tones \u201cshift [the] mood and perception,\u201d allowing for a wardrobe addition that \u201cfeels grounded yet poetic, where ease becomes expressive and the ordinary is elevated through craft and subtle beauty.\u201d<\/p>\n But it\u2019s not all dusty, muted washes\u2014brighter hues have also entered the conversation. Cobalt<\/a>, as seen at Versace, and red, at Kallmeyer, bring a confident jolt of color, while pastels, like lavender (as seen at Chlo\u00e9), blush pink<\/a>, and soft blue offer a softer way to tap into the trend alongside staple neutrals.<\/p>\n Colored denim is one of the easiest way to shake up your wardrobe for spring\u2014the only question remaining is, which hue is for you?<\/p>\n Among the wave of colored denim, grounding earth-tone washes feel especially compelling this season\u2014standing out for ease of styling and versatility, especially in a wardrobe anchored by neutrals and louche tailoring. The Row, Loewe, Celine, Dior, and editor-favorite Ossou<\/a> have all incorporated this shade into their collections, solidifying it as one of the season\u2019s standout tones.<\/p>\nVogue\u2019s<\/em> Top Colored Denim Picks<\/h2>\n
