Double denim is a time-honoured trend that simply won’t fade. Like an ex who refuses to stop sliding in your DMs, the divisive fad just keeps coming back - much to the utter delight of Y2K enthusiasts.
It’s a tightrope walk, though. Get it wrong and you’re dangerously close to looking like a Nineties sitcom character. Ace it however, and you’re suddenly in the realm of off-duty model, as demonstrated by industry cool-girls such as Elsa Hosk, Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa.
When styled in a perfectly coordinated manner, double denim is your one way ticket to sartorial excellence. The trend continues to pepper fashion month, cropping up in street style snaps and runway shows alike. Brands such as Acne Studios, Blumarine, Area and Ahluwalia frequently recycle double denim in their fashion month offerings - with Marques' Almeida, Emilia Wickstead and Egonlab bringing the trend to the runway for spring/summer 2026.
Are we mad about it? Absolutely not. In fact, we couldn't be more thrilled. Denim co-ordinates are the perfect outfit to take to you from day to night. Ideal for coffee dates and evenings spent barside, the Noughties ensemble is both a statement and a conversation starter.
Most notably, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake’s 2001 MTV VMA red carpet moment became iconic for double denim dressing. Britney’s rhinestone-studded denim jacket and low-rise jeans perfectly matched her then-partner's denim-on-denim ensemble, cementing the 'Denim Duo' in pop culture history. The look sparked endless fashion debates and remains a nostalgic emblem of early-2000s style, a moment endlessly mulled over by fashion insiders to this day.
