It may seem like there’s a  new denim must-have every season but in this case, it’s an essential update . If, like us, you’ve been wearing your standard skinny styles for years, then welcoming in the wide leg jean ill make a refreshing change to your wardrobe, creating an entirely new silhouette inkeeping with the sleek Seventies trend.

Wide leg jeans will flatter your figure by balancing out your hips with their bell-bottom shape, and when worn with wedges, they’ll endlessly lengthen your legs, too.

Some shoppers believe that denim is definitely worth investing in and if you fall into that category than these 7 For All Mankind bootcuts are just the pair for you. A brand favoured by Cameron Diaz, these jeans will fast become a fashion staple, and since the sizes increase by an inch rather than two like most high street stores, you’re guaranteed to find the perfect fit.

But since new styles of denim are a frequent occurence, some believe it’s not always worth breaking the bank. If this sounds more like you, luckily we’ve found this nearly indentical pair from Mango, and at a fraction of the cost, you won’t feel bad about retiring these ones.

Wear your new wide leg jeans with a vest and a kimono during the day to encompass the Seventies trend entirely or with a sumptuous sheer blouse for the evening – however you chose to wear them, prepare for compliments.
