The denim dictionary
Do you know your mom jeans from your fisherman jeans?
Noelle Sciacca
Denim lovers have never enjoyed more options.Up until now, past decades could easily be identified by their own respective jean style. Bellbottoms belonged to the '70s, acid washes rocked the '80s and mom jeans ruled the early '90s before bootcut shapes stole the show in the latter part of the decade. Skinny jeans have monopolized much of the 2000s but their reign is coming to an end. When we look back on the mid 2010s, it will be difficult to pinpoint one particular jean style. We have more options than ever — and that's incredible. The denim world is no longer a dictatorship but a democracy. Each day you can cast your vote for whatever jean you see fit, trends be damned.With so many varieties available, shopping for denim can be overwhelming. We've broken down the huge variety of today's most popular styles to help you navigate the vast blue jeans seas, and to properly exercise your freedom of choice.
