Just You Wait—Anyone Who's Stylish Will Be Wearing These 6 Jeans Trends on Repeat Next Month
This might be a controversial opinion, but I find denim really comes into its own in cooler months, which is why I’ve been keeping my eye on the autumn jeans trends defining 2025.
During balmy months, the sweet reprieve from pithy downfalls and brisk winds is so fleeting that I feel like it’s my duty to embrace the pretty summer dresses and sophisticated shorts that I’ve been stockpiling for the moment the sun makes an appearance. But as soon as that moment passes, these styles get stored away again for another few months, sitting idle in the back of my wardrobe as I’m forced to formulate warm, practical and chic outfits that can see me through grey skies and chilly temperatures.
My usual formula for bracing these weather woes involves some sort of woollen trench coat, a durable cashmere jumper and a pair of kitten heel boots that I can stomp around town in. Naturally, I find that denim jeans are the most effortless and elegant trousers to complete this ensemble, given their ability to always make you look chic and put together, even if you are just wearing a pair of archival Levi’s 501s that you fished out from a second-hand store.
It seems I’m not alone in believing that jeans are best saved for the autumn months, with countless designers and stylish tastemakers co-signing this stance. In Milan, Prada, a brand better known for its embroidered skirts and classic yet cerebral dresses, paraded a pair of indigo wash straight leg jeans down its autumn/winter 2025 runway. Elsewhere, in Paris, Chloé’s new season collection featured high-waisted and wide-leg styles that sat high on the hips in a nod to the stylings of the ‘70s.
Faithfull the Brand, an Australian-based label revered for its charming, vintage-inspired resortwear, has even launched denim as a category this autumn, citing a pre-loved pair they found while shopping through the French capital as the source of inspiration for their first offering.
All this to say, there’s certainly no shortage of 2025 autumn jeans trends to embrace. The biggest style of notes? Unconventional colourways, fresh styling tricks and silhouettes that can change the overall effect of an outfit. So, without further ado, keep scrolling below for the six key autumn 2025 jeans trends.

Style Notes: After years of pink stealing the spotlight in Valentino’s autumn/winter 2022 collection, the Barbie press tour and Ariana Grande’s Wicked looks, green has emerged as a way to cleanse the palette. A directly opposing shade, deep olives and piquant dill tones have emerged as one of the top autumn fashion colour trends.
