Give your wardrobe the spring treatment with these viral options.
Bell Bottoms Spring is in full bloom, and your closet deserves a seasonal refresh (consider it part of your spring cleaning agenda). With the new season comes warmer weather, which makes it the perfect time to switch up your usual wardrobe staples, including your current denim rotation.
This spring, trending styles are continuing to divert from slimmer, constricting fits, with many embracing an ultra-relaxed look that leaves room for comfort and experimentation. Sure, there’s discourse around the revival of skinny jeans, but the baggy, oversized trend is still going strong—if anything, it’s more prevalent than ever. Along with looser fits, other styles popping up have noticeably rising hemlines, lower waistlines, and come in a rainbow of colors beyond indigo blue.
Many of these trending styles are pure nostalgia fuel, but you won’t be hard-pressed to find a fresh, new style. From ’60s-inspired bell bottoms to modern takes on the humble capri, the great thing about this spring’s denim trends is that you likely have many of them in the back of your closet. Here are seven styles to try this season.
1. Bell Bottoms
Some form of flared jeans is always having a moment, but this spring, exaggerated bell bottoms are becoming more prevalent. Sure, there are more options that are less extreme than the pair above, but where’s the fun in being tame?
2. Brown Denim
America’s ice-skating sweetheart, Alyssa Liu, made a strong case for brown denim during her fashion week debut earlier this year. Though rich mocha tones dominated 2025, the neutral tone shows no signs of letting up, proving that you don’t have to lighten up your wardrobe for the warmer weather ahead.
3. Ankle Crop
Hitting the sweet spot between floor-grazing baggy jeans and calves-baring capris, a subtly cropped pair of jeans shows off your shoes without leaving too much in the cold. Spring is a transitional season, after all, so shorter hemlines can be risky during temperamental weather. Sport them with a pair of your favorite heels, sneakers, or ballet flats—your footwear options are endless with this style.
4. Oversized Jeans
Slouchy, baggy boyfriend jeans have dominated the past few years, and this spring is no different. Oversized jeans are taking new forms with features like bubble hems, straight-leg styles, and dramatically relaxed fits.
5. Capris
Capris came back in full force, having been spotted on street style stars like Emily Ratajakowski, Hailey Bieber, and Bella Hadid. Their first foray back into the limelight featured more minimalistic iterations, like the simple black pairs made famous by Audrey Hepburn. But this season, denim capris are calling. The ultra-cropped look makes for the perfect transitional pant when you want to show just a little bit of leg.
6. Dark Wash Denim
The resurgence of raw and Selvidge denim means we’re favoring darker washes all around. The rich indigo color looks polished and a bit more formal. It’s the kind of denim that doesn’t look out of place at work or a nice dinner.
7. Cuffed Denim
Over the past decade, denim trends swung from cropped at the ankle to pooling around the feet. Now we’ve settled somewhere in the middle, with straight-leg jeans featuring a thick, structured cuff. It’s a small detail with a big impact, adding shape and texture to your everyday jeans.
