Casual chic
Picture this: you have a date night planned, or you've scheduled an after-work get-together with your best friends. No occasion could call more clearly for white denim. Our take on the casual yet sophisticated look required involves luxe earrings, a black top with subtly elegant details, and a playful footwear twist.
Everyday attire with a crispy shirt
An everyday look based around white denim trousers can take on make different forms, based on your mood. Perhaps you feel like a casual spin with T-shirt or tank top, or you are in the mood for slouchy take – in which case a crisp shirt is the perfect choice. This season, we're are also adding a pair of colourful sneakers to add a trendy note to an otherwise timeless look.
Day party in white trousers
It may be denim, but white jeans can make the cut for a party setting. When wearing them for a more festive occasion we recommend you invest in a pair with some more elegant detailing: be it high-waist, folded lining, interesting pockets or a special crop. Aside from those finer details, details we recommend you style the trousers with contrasting hues to give the look a lift.
Office appropriate
A corporate office dress code does normally not include denim, however, white jeans surpass this rule book. When styling white trousers for the office we would recommend you to invest in a sleek, timeless design that has a crop around the ankle. With it, we would add a blazer, a pair of a ballet flats and a scarf to add a pop of colour.
White on white and white
White on white is a forever classic that works just as well in the case of styling white denim trousers. We love a white look with subtly contrasting shades of white to give the look some more depth. An effective option here would be to add some off-white accessories.
