Are jeans okay? It’s a valid question, given the number of celebs who’ve recently stepped out in some very, uh, unique denim looks. Yes, that includes Travis Kelce — and his exceptionally questionable shredded jeans. (In the words of one Swiftie, “what the f*ck did taylor[’s] cats do with his jeans.”) But also: Bella Hadid’s bedazzled denim bikini, Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s denim Met Gala gown, Beyoncé’s thigh-high “joots” (yes, that’s a thing), and JLo’s I-just-rolled-around-in-a-barnyard denim get-up.

There’s no denying that the Great Denim Revival has arrived, thanks to, among other things, the ongoing resurgence of Y2K fashion and western wear. But this time, “it’s an era of seeing how far we can push it,” says one fashion exec. That’s pretty obvious if you take a look at some of the biggest denim trends, from deeply divisive barrel jeans to extremely sparkly, extremely messy glitter jeans. Even sweatpants that have been painted to look like jeans are apparently “sweeping America.” But before you toss that stack of skinny jeans, wait — because according to one expert, “there’s definitely going to be a point in the future where we move away from [extreme denim].” Fingers crossed that’s before Sydney Sweeney’s “whale tail” look gains traction.
